I think the dichotomy list is going to grow.
North and South Dakota have the east and west that are at odds with one another politically.
In South Dakota, East river is ag and big city democrats. West River is conservative except for Indian Reservations.
Western North Dakota is energy, and Eastern ND wants to control the money in Western ND.
I see many “winnowing forks” coming to the fore these days.
(Matt 3:12 His winnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor, gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable fire.” )
In 2008, Sarah Palin herself was such a winnowing fork.
Today, we have the homos and their desire for approval.
And all along, we have the “haves” and “have nots” that are used by those who seek power unto themselves through socialism.
