Much of the East German and Soviet propaganda at that time was designed to confuse and cast doubt, not necessarily to fully persuade. The idea was that enough conflicting information would tire people out

It’s weird to see this much of a cover-up of the mismanagement of a nuclear facility while people insist we need to build more, bigger, and less regulated facilities.

When was the last time the US built a reactor successfully?
Been building A1B rectors regularly and on time for a decade now. But to answer your question, this year.
Respectfully I think this is interesting conjecture. Intentionally or not, it seems to directly compare modern facilities with Chernobyl. The only factor linking the examples is nuclear. There’s an ocean of time, technology, politics, culture, and regulations between the two.
95/5, but only after the meltdown had started and before the info was public.
