RFK is in the pocket of the establishment healthcare companies.

He is there to line their pockets by removing preventative measures.

Let's also not pretend that regimes like Iran don't need to be bombed for many good reasons.

Not the people, but the regime.

Why would you need to expose SSH for everyday use? Or does Jellyfin require it to function?

Maybe leave that behind some VPN access.

On the matters most important, they are the same. Both are hell bent on the concentration of wealth and power with the elite.

Republicans just add the flavour of being overtly evil, where Democrats pretend they are good.

The political system is the problem, what we have today, is what it has been designed to do.

I don't disagree. Republicans are overtly evil.

But many people ignore that both have been facilitating the concentration of wealth and power that is at the core of all the systemic problems affecting almost everyone.

It started around the Reagan era and was reinforced by die bushes and Clinton.

Obama was the big "Change" candidate that was supposed to reverse the trend, but he betrayed people by entrenching it instead. They distracted people though the token measure of "wokeness" and obamacare, which did nothing to address the causes of those problems.

I would raise both hands, so we can include the Democrats as well.

Both are part of the problem. Along with their owners.

He is right for all the wrong reasons. There are only bad sides in this conflict.

The world will be a lot better without both those authoritarian regimes.

Not sure Iranian missiles are that advanced. Even the Soviet missiles designed to take out supercarriers only had the most basic terminal maneuverability. And those were done by fins. Even the US has only recently caught up with that level of ballistic missile tech by the mid 2000s

I thought so too, but I think the acceleration is an optical illusion due to the warhead coming in slightly towards the camera. I also don't recall any ballistic missiles carrying a terminal motor that kicks in that late.

That's usually only for cruise missiles. Gravity does a good enough job of giving the warhead speed.
