Political revolutions usually involve a wealthy class being kept away from political power, combined with a particularly unpopular and stupid absolute ruler.
In the US, the wealthy are the political class, and while Trump is stupid and unpopular he has only been in power a year. Most people think he will be gone in 3 more years, and even if he jettisons the Constitution and stays in as President, he is old and unhealthy.







All I do:
I think that’s it. I have my host exposed to the Internet. As far as I know, it’s fine.
BTW, sshguard is for the IMAP and SMTP that run on the host, which do allow password logins. But it helps reduce load from brute force attacks on port 22 (which are pointless anyway).
I’m much more worried about my son installing dodgy Minecraft mods, or my wife installing another app that she saw on TikTok. I really should put them each on a separate VLAN…
