Occam's razor is that nuclear power plants don't exist, they're just coal power plants (which already existed) with a story about nuclear power being possible. After all, do you have any idea how complicated controlled fission would have to be? It's easier if it doesn't exist.

The problem with this "theory" is that it doesn't explain all the evidence. Sure, a hijack would have to be way more complicated than a mid-air explosion, just like a nuclear power plant would have to be way more complicated.

But a complicated set of transponders turning off with sudden radio silence is exactly what happened. Plus, if it was a mid-air explosion - where are the pieces?

This is ridiculous. An elaborate conspiracy to fool people into believing in nuclear power isn't simple at all. Not to mention events like Chernobyl


Yeah, Occam's Razor in that scenario would be that the nuclear power are real.
