You can accuse someone of anything, until they file a suit they’re just trying thuggish intimidation tactics, which is no surprise from patent trolls.

Tritium. In addition to the points made by other replies, current fusion is (mostly) D-T, and we’re nowhere near breeding T in the reactor, so it has to be made in fission plants. Tritium is very expensive, and a significant risk for nuclear weapons proliferation.

It would explode, but for any reactor we’re likely to build in our lifetimes, it wouldn’t be anything like a nuclear bomb. We’ve had nastier explosions in natural gas refineries. There would be radiological contamination from the Tritium and any neutron-activated material, but it would be more of an expensive cleanup than an environmental disaster. It would be dirty though, especially if the reactor had been running for a while, building up dust. What wasn’t radioactive would still likely be stuff you don’t want to breathe or ingest.

TL;DR Boom lots of dead people in the containment structure, expensive cleanup, but nothing like a fission disaster. It would be an uninspiring explosion, but it would be dirty.

I’d be more surprised if people working for a company like Facebook weren’t raging hypocrites. Other than stratospheric levels of cognitive dissonance, hypocrisy or just not giving a shit is the only way someone could work for them. In my experience far more people are hypocrites than truly callous and uncaring.

Peter Thiel though, seems like less of a hypocrite and more like someone who just says and does whatever he thinks is personally advantageous, and screw everyone who isn’t Peter a Thiel.
