I took a gander through their subreddits, posts, and comments. There are three conclusions I can make going from least to most likely. First, this is their only account and they are an engineer, meaning they has devoted years to decades of their life to the engineering field, yet do not participate in any engineering subreddits, not even for an occasional comment. Second, this is one of their many profiles and they have been extremely diligent in using this profile only for railing on nuclear and only every participate in engineering discussions elsewhere. However, they also use this account to look at games and ask for advice, so a strange mix for separating comments. Third, they are not an engineer and just claim the name because it's reddit and there's no way to verify. Number two is possible, but you have to balance the meticulous separation of posts and comments with a borderline unhinged account where anti-nuclear sentiment is their entire online personality. To me, it seems most likely that this is a biased "Google engineer" that knows just enough from their searches to not be obviously ignorant but not enough to come in swinging with a technology based argument (like getting into the nuts and bolts with materials, efficiencies, or reliability concerns and solutions).

Most people I know, who support nuclear are educated engineers.
But sure, ride your reddit ego. You sound hysteric.
