Fukushima
Hey! | This article is an Encyclopedia Dramatica exclusive. This article is only for the discriminating lulz connoisseur. If you have any exclusive drama to add, click here. |

Back in 2011, an earthquake and tsunami hit Japan, any well-read EDiot is familiar with the drama associate with the Japan Crisis of 2011. Besides effectively ruining Japan's shit everywhere, the drama is nowhere near done. A wall of water got into the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant and collectively fucked up Japan's business forever. For example, if the pool of fuel rods 100 feet above the ground in Unit 4 of Fukushima contains more than 5000 times Hiroshima bombs' worth of cesium-137. In fact this is so bad, Tokyo's soil is contaminated to the level of what would be classified as nuclear waste in the United States. You can imagine the political and economic ramifications of a mass evacuation of the greater Tokyo Area.
A group of retired engineers, nuclear experts, construction workers, and other volunteers have formed an organization called Skilled Veterans Corps for Fukushima (SVCF). Their main objective is simple: sacrifice their bodies so younger workers don't have to be exposed to radiation as the SVCF is commissioned to build a giant pyramid tomb to forever contain the mess that is Fukushima Daiichi—no this isn't a joke. So far this project has accomplished very little because of a corporate media blackout that is being pushed by International Atomic Energy Association (IAEA) and nuclear energy companies in the United States and Japan that don't want you to know that every time we have a meltdown we have to crank out cannon fodder and billions of dollars to compensate the mess. They also don't want you to know that the only way we can even begin to learn about the true costs of nuclear meltdowns is by examining them as they happen—meaning anyone can really be an expert on this issue. So let us educate you on the drama as we are just as much experts as these corporate shills on this subject. We are knowledgable enough on this subject to objectively report what the corporate media won't report because they are in cahoots with the nuclear industry.
