USA election – pandemic, climate, nuclear issues – theme for October 2020
On the pandemic – Donald Trump says – his COVID-19 infection is a “blessing from God”, and promises to make the experimental drug he received available for free to all Americans.
What can I say? The present coronavirus chaos in America surely indicates what we can expect from a renewed Trump presidency – further chaos on the health area, and probably every other area, too. Heaven help USA if an even worse virus should come along.
On climate? – a Democratic victory would be an improvement indeed. Joe Biden has not been an enthusiast for climate action – but, under the pressure of the climate crisis, and the strong demand for action with the ‘green new deal”, he now expresses strongly the Democrats policy plans for action to reduce greenhouse emissions, and support international agreements.
On nuclear? We know that Biden and the Democrats will be better in international relations. It will be a relief to get away from the Trump brinkmanship and uncertainty. But – We can’t expect much progress on curbing the nuclear weapons bonanza for the death industries.
On nuclear power. Well, despite the evidence now becoming clear – that small nuclear reactors are useless, the Democrats would pursue them, because of their intrinsic connection with USA’s favourite industry – weapons making. And because the myth about a ”transitional technology” makes it easier for the fossil fuel industries to hang on in there.

Tsuboi released comments expressing his joy after he
learned that the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear
Weapons would enter in force.
“I am filled with excitement, thinking, ‘At long last.
This is great.’ It is a major step toward my long-held,
earnest desire for nuclear weapons to be banned
and eliminated,” he said. At the same time, he
noted that states with nuclear weapons, as well
as Japan, had not ratified the treaty and said, “The road hereafter may be rough.”
Still, each time I have met Tsuboi, he has
repeatedly stated, “I won’t give up until there ar
e zero nuclear weapons. Never give up!”

IT IS SAD THAT THIS COMMENT WILL BE CENSORED AND NOT PUBLISHED. THIS IS THE MOST AWFUL DANGEROUS TIME FOR THE WORLD WITH TRUMP IN POWER
THE REPUBLICANS IN AMERCA USED THE SUPREME COURT TO STOP THE CENSUS LAST WEEK OCT 8 2020. THE CENSUS DETERMINES VOTING AREAS AND WHICH OF THE MORE POLULATED AREAS GET AN EXTRA HOUSE SEAT IN CONGRESS. THE REPUBLICANS, EFFECTIVELY NEGATED DEMOCRACY . TRUMP AND THE REPUBLICANS WILL BE ABLE TO GERRYMANDER AMERICA, INTO ONE PARTY NAZI-REPUBLICAN TOTALITARIAN RULE. IT IS HAPPENING! WHAT WILL HAPPEN NOW IS THAT TRUMP WILL STOP THE VOTE COUNTING LIKE W BUSH DID IN 2000 AND HAVE HIMSELF DECLARED THE WINNER AND PRESIDENT BEFORE ALL THE VOTES ARE COUNTED AND THAT IS THE WAY IT WILL BE. THE REST OF WHAT I WROTE HERE, TALKS ABOUT WHAT TRUMP WILL DO NOW. MAYBE BIDEN COULD HAVE STOPPED SOME OT THE INSANITY IF THERE WERE DEMOCRACY IN AMERUCA.
I personally think this is the pyrocene age. maybe 6 years left w trump out, if there is not radical change. 1 or two years left at the most, if trump stays in. Since fuku the internet exploded w protrump critters. Surprisingly many of the pro trump warmonger beasts, came from enenews. Tump is the worst nucape monster in history. He has, abandoned all nuke treaties. Trump is increasing inventories of nuclear weapons, wit thousands of more nuke bombs He will detonate more nuclear bombs on americans. More nuke tests in USA. AlMOST all nuke arms treaties gone There is an hypersonic nuke missile race w Russia that almost insures apocalylse. first There are Firstbstrike tactical nuclear missiles on almost wvwry american submarine now.
There has been the first nuke detonation in years in in the world in years in Russia because of Trumps amped up nuclear arms race, from trump insanity.
TRUMP is keeping open beatup nukes in USA in Ohio. FLORIDA , THE MIDWEAST AND SOUTH. No repair or bolstering the safety of dangerous old reactors that should be actively undertakin after seeing fukushima . Global heating is making them thousands of times more likely, to have catastrophic failure They are mripling and qudrupling of wild fires an hurricanes innthe usa every year for 4 yearsnfrom global heating.
Trump is spending trillions on Nuke star wars instead of increasing nuclear reactor safety. Instead of safely burying massive stockpiles of. Nuclear waste. instead of investing in renewable energy. trump is a madman. henisnthenworst nucleaonape in history at the most dangerous nuclear catastrophe. time in the world. Post Fukushima. What IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE?
DONALD TRUMP TRULY IS INSANE NOW.trump has covid. He is on corticosteroids that are making him crazier. Trummp would grab the nuke football bag Nuke button devices out parading his covid if people had not had him under some scrutiny. He wants to launch A first strike right on tv ranting and raving and sic from covid.

The Only real antinuke now ARE fuku311. NuCLEAR-News. NET . Helen CALDICOTT, cecalli helper. Kevin blanch, beyond nuclear, fairewinds and a few others like tem . They know there is probably only a year left w trump in power.
Not sure abput miningawareness – does seem somewhat racist.
Also not sure about the Biden crew. Biden’s big advantage, as far as I’m concerned, is that he’s not Trump.
MOST OF THE CRAP ON THE INTERNET. ARE PROPAGANDA MILLS AND CONSPIRACY MILLS THAT GO TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER. BIDEN SUCKS BUT IS NOT AN EXTEMIST NAZI RACIST LIKE TRUMP. TRUMP IS DESTROYING AMERICA AND THE WORLD. THIS EVIL THING AT MINING AWARENESS WENT AFTER BERNIE SANDERS NOW IT IS COMPLETELY PROTRUMP WITH THE OTHER MURDEROUS NAZI FAKE WESITES THAT HAVE COME UP SINCE FUKUSHIMA
