People are having three different conversations at the same time:

– the concrete causes of this specific blackout; – how the existing grid is not prepared to deal with the current energy mix; – the energy policy of the past decades, from the nuclear moratorium in the 80s to the large subsidies for renewable generation of the past couple decades.

A person's strong opinion on any one of these issues will inevitably influence their opinion on the others.
