      Just please remember not all Texans are like this. I for one don’t approve of the bullshit that’s going on, but thanks to Texas politics being garbage in general, I feel pretty powerless when it comes to stopping it.

          Bruh, people don’t just get to pick up and move hundreds or thousands of miles. It’s expensive, time consuming, and most people have families.

            Move your family as well.

            And people do this all the time, what do you think refugees are doing? Fleeing dangerous oppressive shitholes.

              I’m betting this person is either underage or has their life financed by their parents.

      They have been pissy ever since Alaska gained statehood and their whole identity as the biggest state became a joke as they still try to act like it is true.
