No, molten salt fission reactors. The technology never worked on a commercial scale and it’s doubtful it ever will. And even if somebody were willing to finance the development, it would take decades to become viable.
That nonsense has been debunked so many times. And no matter what, it’s simply physically impossible to build enough nukes quickly enough to have a meaningful impact.

your sarcasm detector might be broken.
I guess the chinese think differently - we will see.
The Chinese will keep throwing money at it until it maybe works some day. They don’t care about cost.
More countries should adopt a similar philosophy for ways to end global warming.
Sure. But they should use the money for things that have a chance to make a positive impact.
Like?
Have you heard of renewables? Neat stuff.
IDK if you know this, but renewables aren’t on their own to cover all of our power needs everywhere.

It’s not a competition. You can and should do both. Putting all your eggs in renewables is just as shortsighted as not using them
We should use the technologies that are proven to work, available today and way way cheaper than anything else.
