I don’t think power shortages will be the issue. I think major disruption to the internet and phone systems.

Areas knocked out by EMPs.

...major disruption to the internet and phone systems.

The economic losses to the oligarchs would be enormous.

OTOH: maybe the patriots would perpetrate this.

Ground-based localized EMPs: maybe.

I asked a local electrician for his opinion and he mentioned aholes driving around and shooting out transformers. Said it would take 2-3 weeks to replace the smaller ones.

If there are EMPs, most radios aren’t gonna be working. What will you listen on?
