Yeah, but like, don't. Or at least cover your house with solar. If you need a literal life support system and are dependent on a centralized power grid for that with no backup, you will die.
I agree that in places like that AC should be among the critical systems which are the last to shut down, but it's also important to note that the vast majority of inhabited places on earth are not like that (yet).
Sorry gramma, a lemmitor said you shouldn't have been born in the armpit of america, so you're going to have to either die when power shuts down or drop everything and move.
That's not my opinion, that's a sad fact of life. If you can't move, get a backup electricity supply. Blackouts happen.
Pretty sure this entire line which began and summarizes your whole comment is literally 100% opinions, and they're your opinions.
