Are you claiming you DO know?

You didn't just say you didn't know. You said you had "no idea."

OK, if you want to play the semantics game...
At the time I wrote the quote, I'd done NO checking into what the
conditions of Cuban jails are/were. As such, I had no idea.
Based on what I've found since then, I seriously doubt I would
enjoy a stay, but I still don't actually KNOW.
Since I have no plans on visiting Cuba, and don't commit actions
that tend to land one in jail, I doubt I'll ever have the specific
knowledge one way or the other.
I accept Kenneth Robert Pangborn's specific knowledge (he claimed
to KNOW) that I wouldn't enjoy it. My limited research gives me
reason to believe he's correct.

That's a level of ignorance about which most people would not brag.

If you know, how do you know?

How do you know all jail time is serious?

Avoidance noted. Even so, I'll play along.
If one is sentenced to jail time, it's serious. Whether that
sentence is for one day, one year, or some time in between, it's
serious.
You may disagree. Your question gives reason to believe you do.
