Biden Administration Energy Official Advocates for 'Queering Nuclear Weapons'

Sneha Nair's views on integrating queer theory into nuclear policy spark debate over national security and DEI principles.

Sneha Nair, appointed as a special assistant at the DOE, co-authored an article on 'queering nuclear weapons.'
Nair argues that queer theory can reshape nuclear disarmament and enhance security by promoting DEI values.
Critics question the relevance of DEI principles in nuclear policy, citing concerns over national security priorities.
Nair's appointment comes amid heightened nuclear tensions with China, Russia, and North Korea.
The DOE has not commented on Nair's past writings or her role in shaping nuclear policy.
