Cuba's power grid collapses for sixth time since US cut off fuel to the island

How much actual time have you spent without power, pumped water, climate control, phone service, refrigerated food supply, or fuel in a tropical climate?

Me, nine years. Intentionally. In a location far enough from population density that sustainability was obtainable, but with the option to hike out and avail myself of any and all of those conveniences when the rain was low enough to make the fast flowing waters passable - sometimes using a rope safety line to wade out, other times dry crossings. The first two years were much harder, but by the end the excursions 'out' of the jungle were not more frequent than once per quarter, sometimes as few as twice a year.

Change those wild conditions to a location with significant population density and citizens habituated to any and all of those conveniences; even in a small measure, and things are confoundingly harder with significant risk to life through the interruption in those services without the surrounding natural habitat and developed skills to survive.

So, the 'there are workout gyms everywhere' is a tone expected from a frat brat, crypto bro with limited applied experience and a vanishingly small capacity for empathy. Is that the note you were trying to hit?

go flip your main circuit-breaker for a week and lock away your phone/tablet, let us know how that "paradise" goes for you

there's like three MILLION immigrants from Cuba here who fled seeking asylum for damn good reason (it's why our moron-in-chief thinks seeking asylum = from insane-asylum)

I don't think it's worth it personally, but the Cuban diaspora in the US overwhelmingly does. I'd take it up with them, but maybe don't accuse them of torture right out of the gate.
