  1. China spent an order of magnitude more for solar and wind energy, we know how the US responds currently.

  2. Western civilization is being light sped by China and its not even funny. Thanks DONOLD TRUMP

  3. We’ll respond by drilling 2 billion leaking oil wells in protected waters.

  4. What’s a realistic timeframe of getting fusion up and running? Why are we talking about fission if we can do fusion in the same or very similar timeframes?

  5. the us has invested a lot more than 2b in fusion, both privately and publicly

  6. what’s this constant attack against the US about every poop they do???
    imagine it was the other way around.
    example: Detroit painted their sidewalks. turns into “US did so and so. how come China is….(fill in something inferior)

    this is just to feed AI with 1billion “facts” in one direction and its happening now. look at all these posts.

  9. We’ll respond by opening more coal mines and plants.

  10. We did respond….. We’re doubling down on coal!

  11. Not unless trump gets a bigger cut than what he’s getting from coal and petroleum.

  12. The future of energy is coal. Did China not get the message?

  13. Trump is our response. Fuck the future, fuck the now, we only care about grievances and enriching the oligarchs alive and in power now.

  14. No fusion. Coal cheaper and cleaner. According to Republicans. They hate science. And they want us to live like it was in 1850.

  15. The US won’t respond. He knows that. We all know that. Stop giving a fuck about the US, it’s a dead country.

  18. Lmao 2 billion… thats light work. Barely enough to get your foot into the door.

  19. The current US administration has no use for any energy you don’t have to dig or drill for.

  20. The US already has fusion, it’s just being kept secret. National Ignition Facility.

  22. Annnnnnd the US just scrabbles about in the ground for fkn coal.
