- dqv 6y agoPolicy differences are kind of hard to track and it gets abstract. Are we talking about the superficial policy differences (i.e. the ones we see in CSPAN performances) or those that represent the the interests of the corporate backers of each party? Sometimes the performative stuff aligns with the backers’ interests (e.g. democrats and immigration). At the end of the day I’m mostly checked out from US politics. There is how I think things ought to be and reality. Reconciling the two will probably take many more years of reflection. Mostly my interest in politics at this point is the internecine conflicts that arise in the various subcultures of political thought online.
