If nuclear helps us phase out fossil fuels quicker than I fully support it.

At least where I live that’s a big if. Nuclear in Australia is most often used by fossil fuel interests as a stalling tactic because of how long it would take to get up and running and how expensive it would be, compared to renewables.

Yet if they just did it, we’d have it by now. Any talking point is stalling at this stage.

It won’t, but it’ll help the longterm. We can tackle both longterm and short term goals at once.

What we absolutely shouldn’t be doing is engaging in protectionism, and banning imports of cheap solar panels. We don’t have time for that shit.

The discussion should just be about either solar/wind/hydro or solar/wind/hydro/nuclear. Let’s start with the low hanging fruit and then keep discussing nuclear.
