Our reading

An editorial interpretation.

The speaker places a sharp dividing line at the shutdown of the grid: things were fine before it, and the person addressed gets the blame. The crude insult adds anger to that account. Read as a comic accusation, the sentence reduces a larger problem to one pointed grievance.
