I was just about to say, what a hideously disingenuous thumbnail picture. Thats fucking water steam and nothing more.

That's apparently Lethabo Power Station:

> Lethabo Power Station in the Free State, South Africa, is a large coal fired power station owned and operated by Eskom.

Bolding mine.

Just water steam coming out from the power plant using the lowest grade coal in the world, constantly polluting the air to 15x the legal limit. Super disingenuous, right?

Because that looks like literally every other nuke power plant which only produce water steam.

Usually the nuke plants don't have a big pile of coal on the side.
