"The truly historical appears to be separated from ordinary life, something extra-superterrestrial" (Page 30). The wording of this is a little clunky. Is he saying the "history is written by the winners" idea?

Multiple Musings on this German Ideology Buisiness
They author frequently brings up "the conflict of town and country" (page 18). Does this have any influence on today's political parties? A map of the US based on political leanings shows that states that are known for having large cities, like New York (New York), Illinois (Chicago), California (Los Angeles), and Minnesota (Minneapolis) vote primarily for Democrats, while states with a reputation for being somewhat barren (like Colorado, Utah, Texas, and Alaska) vote primarily Republican. Does this mean anything?
