I live in Texas, and can’t wait to gth out. This state has become so authoritarian it’s not even funny. Everyone is too busy being in everyone else’s business, especially if they think they can make a quick buck.
When I first moved here, it was a wonderful state to live in, but since djt was voted in it went completely backwards. The obvious racism, bigotry and hatred has really come to the forefront of life around here.
Not to mention the mentality that if they think it’s in the book of fairy tales, called the bible, then that is the supreme law. They are so busy pushing their beliefs on you, and telling you that you should believe in their ways, has gotten out of hand. IMHO texas needs to secede from the US so they can burn in their own personal hell. Let people decide for themselves what they believe and what they can do with their own bodies.
Fuck Texas! I didn’t move here to be told how to live my life.

You kinda did though…Texas has a long history of dictating what people can and can’t do. They’re great at PR, but they never liked when anybody is or does something they don’t agree with.
Lawrence v. Texas was the exact case that made it illegal for Texas to kick doors down and arrest consenting adults for what they do in their bedrooms. Prior to that, cops could kick your shit in if they even suspected you were practicing anything but straight sex in the missionary position if they felt like it.
I e no realized this. My wife, born Texan, and I both are getting out of here asap. We’re going to Colorado and starting fresh their. I hate authoritarianism, especially in Texas. It’s the worst and I grew up in a red state.
We’re planning on moving to the Denver area. More to do and a little cheaper CoL. we plan on staying away from tourist areas since those are always more expensive.
Senator Josh Hawley from Missouri has openly acknowledged that the GOP strategy is to make it so miserable for Democrats in red and purple states that they will move to blue states. That would, in turn, cement Republican power in the White House, Senate and thereby the Supreme Court.
I know, but Texas has gone to hell in a hand basket, like most red states. Never realized how bad the GOP really was until the orange shitstain was in office
I left a decent paying job in Texas and it ended up being one of the worst and most expensive decisions of my life. Guess which asshat is going to be forced to try to get his job back and move back to the Regime of Texas…

I think you meant to use ‘there’, though

Just make sure you avoid Colorado Springs; it’s one of the redder parts of Colorado.

This is a major part of the GOP strategy.
