> Both coal and nuclear have potentially killed millions.

If you remove nuclear from that sentence it is still true. If you remove coal from that sentence it certainly is not.

You are being EXTREMELY misleading. The page you show lists under 10k for nuclear (even if we take the highest estimates from Chernobyl we are around 100k). 20 times that more Americans die per year from coal ash. PER YEAR! 3x that die from cars, or opioids, or guns PER YEAR!

Lumping nuclear into this statistic is grossly misleading at best and manipulative at worst. Considering the link you provided, and that I believe you have the ability to count, it suggests the latter. So I just have to ask: why?

The estimation of excess cancer deaths for Chernobyl and Fukushima is based on exposure results and the LNT model of accumulated dose response instead of actual observed cancer incidences, because it's impossible to actually assign specific incidences of cancer to specific causes. Thus, the counts for deaths caused by Chernobyl--the only nuclear power plant to cause significant death--will include deaths that have yet to occur.

The total estimates for deaths to nuclear power, even including the use of Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bombs, struggle to amount to a million, even if you start using the high outlier estimates of anti-nuclear groups.
