That's what plebs think.
The discerning patrician will see that Khomyuk is simply the other end of the spectrum from the male scientists like Dyatlov, just as harmful and twice as insidious, and supporting Tarakanov's belief that it was not the KGB that drove Legasov to suicide, but his own peers and their pettiness and jealousy.

Ironically, you've become so obsessed with seeing SJW conspiracies everywhere that you've become like them.

The point is RBMK reactors don't explode.

And this is something which you see coming up time and again: people being scared of teling the truth or getting away with telling lies -> the system (company or country) doesn't get the proper feedback to reform -> it collapses

And that's why the debt to Truth will always be paid in the end. You can suppress people, but you can't suppress reality.

The final point is that Soviets were evil. The show really went overboard with the propaganda.

Actual point of what happened is that if something can happen, it will happen. The exact opposite of what the KGB guy said "Why worry about something that will not happen?". Disaster at Chernobyl was made possible with a great string of fuckups that didnt seem possible to happen before it happened.

Is there a comprehensive resource on what the show got right vs what the show got wrong wrt historical accuracy?

So you’re saying Legasov was the top
Nice

The only person for whom Legasov should be "the top" is his loving wife Margarita.

The show gave the impression that ARS patients themselves emit dangerous levels of radiation, and that the plastic sheets around them are to protect visitors. In reality this is false, and the sheets are to protect the patients because they're immunocompromised.
(And no, the show wasn't just presenting this as the view of uninformed hospital staff, it's endorsed by Ulana Khomyuk in that scene where she drags Ignatenko's qt wife away and scolds everyone.)

It's really sad to me that Lyudmila believes this stuff to this day when actually her baby was doomed the moment she came in contact with the radioactive dust and she did nothing wrong except maybe bring more infection to her husband (who would've died in agony without her as well so it doesn't matter)

I didn't mind her that much, but the fact that the composite hypercompetent scientist character is a woman, when most of them were men, was both predictable and tiresome.

I'm pretty sure at that point you could spend several minutes by the thing with minimal ill effects. It wasn't that long ago.

Smfh no realism

There used to be lots of young boys on ships. When they were punished it was different from grown men. They got beaten on the arse. Like spanking a child's behind but with a fucking cain.

No i am sure i read somewhere they died just mere days later. This is was taken just days or weeks after the event.

I might be confusing it with the later images, I dunno.

Ooh shit, he gets a scarred ass from now on

My google-fun found this article about the very image. Here's and excerpt from it:

"In the days and weeks after the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in late April 1986, simply being in the same room as this particular pile of radioactive material—known as the Elephant’s Foot—would have killed you within a couple of minutes. Even a decade later, when this image was taken, the radiation probably caused the film to develop strangely, creating the photo’s grainy quality. The man in this photo, Artur Korneyev, has likely visited this area more than anyone else, and in doing so has been exposed to more radiation than almost anyone in history."

It goes on to say he is still alive to this day. But no verification to be sure.

Many people find scars sexy.

He's still alive to this day.

Is the elephants foot thing still there today?

No that was taken years later and they were by the foot for like 30 seconds.

Yeah, but the outer layers are falling off so it's probably smaller.

Yes and although much less radioactive it's still lethal and molten on the inside.

That's what you get for being a foot fag

The whole point is that if you want to find the truth you have to dig deeper into the lies you're fed. Ergo you should be reading all you can about Chernobyl to understand the show just presented you half-truths, thus the TV show perpetuating its existence long after it's over.

Akimov did everything right, he didn't deserve this.

As a side note, I found myself wondering why they conspicuously did not show Akimov during the hospital scene, and then Ulana simply saying that his face was "gone" was absolutely bone-chilling. Something about that felt more impactful than if we'd actually seen it.

You're a good user.

In the Chernobyl podcast (ep 3 I believe) Craig Mazin said he didn’t want to go over the top with the tragedy etc to the point where it felt like the show was being too overdramatic and began to take viewers out of the experience.

>Akimov did everything right, he didn't deserve this.
All of the people in that control room were fucking retarded and incompetent. They should have known the reactor was being stalled by xenon build-up and when they remove all control rods, shit will get burned away quickly and the reaction goes out of control.

I really, really want to see a person with ARS one day. It's just so interesting how this kind of stuff damages the body.

Akimov literally told exactly that to Dyatlov you tit. Akimov did a single thing wrong, and that was go against what he knew was right out of fear.

That's what they did, user.

>Was he? He seemed awfully self-serving to be a communist.
He was a result of Communism and a Communist country. If the USSR wasn't the USSR, Chernobyl would've never happened.

Hell, the beginning of the meltdown was about not lowering the power to the correct levels because the nearby city needed the electricity to fulfill their monthly production quotas.

Communism caused Chernobyl. And in the end Chernobyl collapsed Communism.

The collapse started with many other factors long before Chernobyl.

>If the USSR wasn't the USSR, Chernobyl would've never happened.
Is this what they teach in muttlands these days?

>The collapse started with many other factors long before Chernobyl.
Yes, Communism.

You mean Stalinism, comrade.

>Is this what they teach in muttlands these days?
It's just common sense, Commie.

>You mean Stalinism, comrade.
Same thing, really. Stalinism comes from Communism.

>Same thing, really. Stalinism comes from Communism.
Stalinism is a bastardization of communism. What you're saying is like saying that /biz/ ideas of money comes from actual economics. Trotskyism is a more direct line of development of communist thought, while Stalin made communism a very insular thing focused on the USSR and, more importantly, himself.

Post /rmbk/ spurdo memes comrades.

The reactor design was fucking shit and would have been illegal in the west.

>It's just common sense, Commie.
Common sense of a mutt is worthless, Amie.

>Stalinism is a bastardization of communism.
And Stalinism couldn't exist without Communism.

And of course it's a bastardization of Communism, because communism is unnatural and degenerates the second it is tried. Which is why it doesn't work.

So when that unnatural ideology tried to do something beneficial (but also a bit dangerous in the wrong hands) like nuclear energy, it would bound to fail.

also it was socialism, not communism

>Common sense of a mutt is worthless, Amie.
And yet Communism collapsed and Chernobyl was a result of Communism.

Even long before the incident, he was infamous for throwing autistic tantrums when his orders weren't followed immediately, and exactly. That being said, the USSR tended to encourage that sort of management style, and besides, he'd been trained to believe than an RBMK explosion was completely impossible. I think putting the whole thing on him is wrong, but if you had to blame a specific individual, it would have to be him.

The goal of Socialism is Communism.

Both are fucked. Because both are flawed.

That's the exact opposite of what Stalin wanted though. Stalin's entire plan was literally called "socialism in a single country". Communism inherently implies global revolution. Stalin stopped pursuing that.

Literally only Khodemchuk never got out.

Communist policy caused it because the KGB hid the finding that the AZ-5 button would cause the reactor to explode.
The firefighters went to a nuclear plant that had just exploded and they didn't even have a proper dosimeter with them. That's just one example of disregard for human life.

>Of building powerplants?
Of building inferior plants and flawed policies.

>Can see it causing bad things in the aftermath, but not the explosion.
They literally believed an RMBK reactor couldn't explode. Because the evidence showing it could explode was classified.

I'm sure they must have had a whole lot of various ideas for the clean up that they did not cover in the series, but much like the idea about shooting the graphite off of the roof, there might have been fears of spreading radioactive materials from the building collapsing (particles carried by dust, graphite getting flown around, etc). I also imagine demolition work could have posed a risk for damaging the fourth reactor's foundation, and negate the miners' efforts.

They did eventually build a sarcophagus around the damaged building, but even that construction effort required the graphite to be cleared off of the roof.

>then lets adopt those policies
>they don't work unless you have the same demographics

ftfy

I disagree. Valery is also for telling him he means a lot to you and maybe even holding his hand

You have to give those people that did it credit. It’s hard pill to swallow that what your doing will either very likely kill you or give you cancer in the long term but they still did it. The work they did prevented that whole region from being contaminated.

Someone did point that out as a possibility.

More to the point. They were the night shift, they weren't aware of any of the details of the test until they clocked in and they had barely any time to familiarize themselves with it. People missing out on important details like that is inevitable.

Absolutely, without their efforts the disaster could have been much, much worse. It's fucked to think the nuclear fuel is still brewing there, but the efforts to contain it are very commendable given the circumstances.

>Putin and his shills can make an entire TV show based on butthurt but can't pay benefits to the surviving liquidators while they die of cancer
Un fucking believable.

why didnt they just get a bunch of broomsticks taped together and push the graphite off the roof from the hole instead of making people go outside? would have been super easy and its soviet russia its not like they didnt have broomsticks to spare

It’s no different then what’s happening with 9/11 first responders getting fucked over too. The same pricks that tried to take the medical benefits from them are the same ones that tweeted about how all 9/11 first responders are heroes. We live in clown world.

Some of that graphite had to be sledgehammered before it could be moved, apparently . Also do remember that those graphite chunks were very heavy.

Yes. Especially without the glasses

> heavy
yea but you could just have more people pushing on the broomstick

And pray tell, how does that help with the graphite that was fused with the concrete?

Pic related kinda breaks my heart /RBMK/
That woman looks too young to be his mother. Maybe she was Toptunov's wife. Or lady.

I wonder who the heroes of the Russian show will be. They've fucked over everyone in the situation so who do they even have left to celebrate.
user I'm not 100% sure of course but I kind of sort of get the vague idea that he's not being serious.

This makes me really sad ;_;

I just want to see how the user plans to revitalize soviet broomstick industry.

Anyone watched Chernobyl Diaries on Netflix after getting interested in Chernobyl?

Don't. It's fucking terrible and has nothing to do with Chernobyl in the slightest except they claim it's in Pripyat, but aside from a guy with a shitty accent saying they are in Pripyat, there's no indication they aren't in New York

Honestly I wish Habeas Corpus was suspended during the early 50s so the FBI could have gotten practically everyone involved with the Verona Project.

I really like this idea of putting the person's face on the gravestone. Gives the family something more tangible which I think is nice.

There's lots of graphite laying around. Graphite is a hard material. Coat the broomsticks in graphite to make them harder and less likely to break. On the tip of each broomstick you can put some of the nuclear fuel lying around because it's already hot and will just melt the graphite off the roof. This isn't difficult and just shows how much more big brained humanity has evolved since Chernobyl because I was easily able to come up with this and they couldn't a century ago

Isn't it some >muh mutants shit? These things always misunderstand what makes Chernobyl frightening. Stalker did it well but it wasn't going for horror or a serious tone.

The point was Chernobyl was the friends we made on the way

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scram_(video_game)

yea its mutants and also packs of dogs. at one point they run through a bunch of tunnels and end up in reactor 4 control room which is huge and basically just has gauges painted on the wall

then they go running around somewhere and go "oh no i cant see my face hurts" and pull out a geiger counter that is beeping and they go "oh no" and then they fight some mutants in a barn and walk outside, end of movie.

>The point was Chernobyl was the friends we made on the way
The series is actually framed in that way.

Wouldn't diamond be better for the coating?

What if someone is doing their star wars kid impression and hits a nearby drinking bottle, creating a miniature thermal bomb?
>a century ago
user it's been 33 years.

I like to believe that at least one of those is a female.

Which reminds me
>actual faithful Roadside Picnic adaptation never ever
It still hurts.

Also it's implied at the end that the surviving woman is thrown in a room with mutants to be used to be bred and make more mutants

But graphite isn't sentient. You can't feed it things, silly.

I would like to see all of them. I wish there were more photos of them.

Legasov's grave is pretty.
Also fuck I just realized I was at the place where he was buried last year but didn't even know.

Stalker is a good movie and does capture that fear aspect but misses the actual thing that gives that fear weight. I don’t blame the film maker though. Honestly at the time it was considered unfilmable. One day a more accurate one will be made.

>When I was a kid I had proper autism. As in I could barely speak, I would violently attack my kindergarten teacher and would curl in a ball and start reeing and pissing myself if someone talked too loudly.
Yes, this checks out.

It's not that he couldn't, he just didn't want to. Have you seen Solaris, everything he adapts is only tangentially related to the original work and has the author's ideas completely erased in favor of his own. Luckily he's a smart man and his ideas make for good films, but it's not a good adaptation.

5000+ Americans died for Israel and Saudi Arabia in Iraq.

They want even more to die in Iran.

I would think it was more the bits of radioactive dust the fireman were breathing in, they did end up burying them all in zinc coffins and concrete

so those miners died for nothing?

The firemen inhaled enough dust to become a danger to people near them

Why is he so smug?

They filled the chamber that they dug with concrete, so it ended up giving the concrete pad above it more stability.

Hol up. Cant people hardour radiation in their bodies after being exposed to enoufg radiation to in turn be dangerous to others.?

yes

That's the definition of childish bullshit.

Chernobyl made me really regret dropping out of my STEM degree.
At least I'm a doctorfag now and could still have been the one to wipe Vasily's butt cheeks.

Yes. That's the reason that they took the extra precaution of sealing them inside the metal coffins and burying them in concrete because there were concerns about additional contamination.

I'm a software engineer and have been trying to find a way I could somehow get into nuclear engineering with it, but there isn't really a solid route in. Plus I've talked to SE's who already work on reactor control software and they make as much as I do already, so it wouldn't even be an upgrade in terms of salary. Not worth the 4 more years of college

But the vast majority of the effort in something like Paper's Please is going to be on the pixel art, which I am no artist.
