The Soviet power plan released radioactivity in the air, make an entire area inhabitable and killed a few dozen a people.
Fukushima did nothing of this, everything stayed inside the structure, no radioactivity went out.
As Fukushima had no recovery generators available (no fuel in them), it is a great proof that a totally out of control modern power plant is not deadly.
The Fukushima disaster cleanup cost a trillion dollars. Over a hundred thousand people were (at least temporarily) displaced. I would call this a pretty darn big failure.
The trillion dollar figure is a bit of a stretch and includes a lot of stuff that didn't need to happen or was double counted.
Less motivated reasoning gives about $300bn which would still be enough to easily replace every coal and oil plant in the country with renewables (as well as half of the gas).
Fukushima ended in no way like Tchernobyl did.
