DARKNESS BY DESIGN: Shock Images Reveal Cuba’s CHILLING “New Normal” as Regime Weaponizes Power Grid
This is not a scene from a warzone. This is the HORRIFYING reality for MILLIONS in Cuba TODAY. A damning new photograph exposes the TRUTH behind the island’s so-called ‘energy rationing’: a COLLAPSED state abandoning its people to literal darkness.
While the crumbling regime blames aging infrastructure and U.S. sanctions, insiders whisper a more sinister truth. This is CONTROL, pure and simple. In the shadow of one of the nation’s LARGEST power plants, citizens are reduced to using cell phone lights, forced into a pre-industrial existence while the political elite live in LUXURY. Is this the catastrophic preview of a FAILED socialist experiment finally imploding?
Experts are sounding the alarm: this is a DRESS REHEARSAL for energy collapse worldwide, a warning of what happens when governments seize total control. The people shivering in the blackout weren’t hit by a hurricane or an EMP attack—they were turned off, DELIBERATELY, by their own rulers. It’s a psychological operation, a method of subjugation played out across the entire island.
Where are the global climate warriors now? SILENT. They champion ‘energy austerity’ for the West, yet ignore the desperate human cost unfolding under a regime they often romanticize. This picture proves their hypocrisy and reveals the monstrous endgame of centralized power. This is what they envision for YOUR future.
The light from a single phone in that Cuban darkness doesn’t just illuminate a face—it exposes a GLOBAL LIE.
