The current will have you swimming in circles around the middle of the ocean till you die. The current out that far is a lot stronger than the stuff you experience at the shore.
let's say you got dropped out about 10m from shore

WITH NO CURRENT I MIGHT MAKE IT. I LEARNED HOW TO SWIM WITH MINIMAL EFFORT. MOST I EVER DID WAS 147 LAPS STRAIGHT NON STOP IN A POOL. I THINK IT CAME OUT TO JUST OVER 2 MILES. I WASN'T EVEN WINDED. I WASN'T EVEN IN SHAPE EITHER. SO I'M SURE THE 6 FIGURE 6 CERT ALPHA MALES HERE COULD DO IT IN UNDER AN HOUR.
I've actually read about this. Apparently, it's pretty damn hard to read the currents, without the proper tools, so it'd be hard as hell to even make it to an island even if you could see it.
shyt would seem always out of reach.

Yup. Would take a few hours but I'd make it.

Yeah, you could swim as hard as you can and it wouldn't matter if that current is pulling south/north/east/west. You're basically swimming in place as the water pulls you along. There was some dude that tried to walk across the atlantic in an inflatable ball last year and he got caught in the currents just a little off the shore. He ended up calling for help cause he was getting dehydrated and had been basically running in place due to the currents.

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
If I don't see land I'm dead.

If you can't swim 10 miles straight you not a real man
Wrong, look it up.There's probably more Sharks in the Caribbean than anywhere else, you have several oceans and seas connecting in the Caribbean
No, you look it up
It's the most infested because stupid people get bitten

I see you niccas...
Might be better off just free floating until a boat or the current miraculously brings you close to shore.
I'm the best doggy paddler this side of the Hudson River and I don't think I'd last if I was that far our in the ocean.
Now maybe I might stretch it by alternating between floating on my back and paddling but I dunno
