One might say North and South was comprised of the same demographic groups, but as a born and raised southerner, I know that isn’t true with respect to culture and ideas about freedom, tradition, and belonging.

You can feel the palpable hatred by Northerners for Southerners in most any comedian’s routine when playing to a NYC audience, for example.

I was saying the very opposite. I was saying that the same demographic groups divided back in those days, is the same demographic groups divided nowadays. The North Eastern Liberals are all supporting the latest socialistic/modern moral fads, and the Same Southern Demographics are opposing them.

Unfortunately, to them has been joined the Billionaire groups of San Fransisco and Los Angeles, and they both bask in their disdain for flyover "Jesus Land." The "god" they worship now is government, but they still all exhibit that Northeastern Puritanical witch hunting mindest for which their fanaticism was made famous.

Did you follow that link I posted earlier? It simply counts this as an ongoing aspect of the War between the English and the Scots-Irish.
