Ulises Toirac critiques with irony the blackouts and lack of alerts in Havana: “What I’m living is not real.”

The Cuban comedian Ulises Toirac made an ironic critique this Thursday about the situation in Havana, characterized by power outages and the absence of alerts related to the effects of Hurricane Helene.

In his Facebook post, Toirac sarcastically commented that "it's not worth waking up early to work knowing that at ten they are going to cut the power."

However, he pointed out that the interruptions came earlier than expected, which, according to him, demonstrates how difficult it is to plan life under these conditions.

Toirac also mentioned that the situation was worsened by strong winds and constant rain, but he ironically stated that, according to the authorities, "nothing has happened," dismissing serious crises with the energy supply or the need to issue cyclone alerts.

With his characteristic humor, he concluded by stating that what he is experiencing "is not real," adding a critical tone to the energy and management situation in Cuba.

On other occasions, Toirac has showcased his exquisite humor to criticize the government of Cuba.

Recently, he attacked the recent decree issued by the Council of Ministers, which prohibits a total of 125 economic activities for private small and medium enterprises, non-agricultural cooperatives, and self-employed workers.

In a text shared on his Facebook wall, Ulises recalled an old joke about a husband who, upon discovering that his wife is cheating on him on their own sofa, decides to throw out the sofa. For him, the government adopts the same attitude towards its problems.

"What they ultimately end up prohibiting is the private enterprise of the majority," he stated, before referring to the disrespect for the legal framework that exists in the country, where "the Constitution can be denied by laws, and laws can be denied by... an invisible and omnipotent superior entity."

On another occasion, Toirac spoke about the return of schools to the countryside in Cuba, which will now take place not in an agricultural camp but in the cities, working in organoponics or in the maintenance of places of interest.

In August,joined the numerous criticisms from the public regarding the lack of waste collectiona problem that causes garbage accumulation in the streets across Cuba.

Ulises shared on his Facebook wall a photo of a heap of garbage on a corner of Havana, and although he did not reveal where it is, the truth is that it could be in any neighborhood of the city.
