    Can you please quote me making such suggestions? Because I looked through our entire conversation and haven’t seen me suggest those things.

      I never said you made an explicit suggestion, but if you think you’ve made an implied one, go ahead and point out what they might be 🙃

          I don’t see what that has to do with fusion energy development. Are they trying to fuse coal into bigger lumps of coal?

            It has to do with energy development in general. Or rather what they are not doing in terms of it. China is working on developing fusion technology while not doing much with developed green technology, instead increasing their reliance on fossil fuels.

            But it’s great PR for them because this article makes it sound like they’re on their way to the green energy they aren’t doing enough about now.

              But but but I thought you said they can’t afford to spend the money on anything because they’re spending it on the Fusion research!

              Are you saying gasp they can fund more than one thing??? Oh my. I bet they definitely can’t afford to invest in solar as well then or coal since they’re spending sooooo much on researching fusion. You’re just imagining things.

                  Oh, so that means you don’t have any issues with people exploring fusion energy. Cool

                    No, I have issues with China using this as PR while they are making climate change worse by building more coal plants. Hence me saying that. Do you think I was saying that for some sort of nefarious reason? Like I am some sort of undercover operative for fossil fuel companies attempting to throw discord?
