I almost got sick when someone called Austin "Portland's sister city."

They're taking the Texas out of Texas.

They are raping Texas, the land and its people. These “transplants” are no better than illegals. They just happen to be Americans with shit politics. Remember where people come from when asking them. Make note.

Texans need to speak up against retards who move in. They need to remember where they moved to and who's in charge.

I'd argue they are far worse than illegals because they actually have a right to vote.

And they vote to attract illegals with sanctuary city policies. So it’s the worst possible outcome.

You think illegals don't vote? That's cute.

Reading for key details is something they used to teach in school.

Texas needs to institute the state-level electoral college system for state-wide elections that they're pushing. If it can be implemented now, but they better hurry before the Left gets anymore of a foothold in the state. We know this is a great idea because the Left is REEEEEING about it, falsely claiming that it's unconstitutional. (States have all sorts of election systems set up. This would just be a different one.) They're also probably worried other states will catch on and the swarms of Leftist locusts will be stopped from destroying other states.

I agree. These people left their shit states and will make Texas shit if they don't actually assimilate.

There is more to this than “oops, guess ill move and live here now”.

Everything is getting more tribal because of this. Im starting to believe leftists are not redeemable.

Im starting to believe leftists are not redeemable.

I reached that point a long time ago. This is why the state-level electoral colleges must be implemented. If a child keeps sticking Legos up their nose, you don't keep giving them Legos. If morons want to keep taking freedom away and making more places unlivable, you take those options away from them.

It has to be made so that the good places made good by better policies and people are unattractive to the Left. Knowing they can't simply overwhelm the population and take over by sheer numbers is the best way to achieve that goal. The Left never wins on their policies or ideas. The idea of "Turning Texas Blue" isn't based on saying, "We'll convince them our ideas are better." It's based on saying, "We'll just ship in enough people who already agree with us to outnumber everyone else. If that doesn't work, we'll sue."

Except all the people I know in my neighborhood that came from out of state are ALL based as fuck. They have flags on their yards and guess what, the looney lefties I've met are native Texans.

We can petition our state government to amend the state constitution. Don't they want to do the reverse on the federal level?

North Carolin, too.

South Carolina isn't far behind, either. We're one of the top states for NY and NJ transplants right now. So Texas gets Cali transplants, the Carolinas get NY/NJ transplants.

Moved there from TN a few years back, couldn't believe how many Blue/Gold NY license plates I would see. Moved out pronto. The locals (those left anyway) fucking hated it

My ex lives in NC. Didn't take her long to start being influenced by the leftist retards in the city in spite of identifying as "conservative." Within a year, I noticed her questions started to show a growing ignorance of the political climate. I gathered she became increasingly more ashamed to identify as a conservative.

Then she started dating a snowflake who was grossly offended by my pro-Trump texts. Sad, but not unexpected. The state is a damn disaster. I do hope he cries himself to sleep at night because her exbf (me) was "such a big meanie who loves orange man."

(Bonus for me though--I've got a choice of based women from church.)

We need to implement state level passports. Or build walls around yankees and californians.

I've just about mcfuckin had it with these retards moving down here.

Our governor is acting more and more like one of them every day! Used to be Texas was the standard for liberty. Not so much any more. Prez said in his presser yesterday that all states need to open up, including red states. They are trying too hard to satisfy the woke herd.

I've been railing on that PIECE of SHIT for months. Abbott has recently tried to pivot some of the hatred coming at him over shutdowns and mask orders with "Back the Blue" stuff. He's also got some goofball medical advisor who sounds like FauXi 2.0. That asshat sounds like he wants to keep the state shutdowns and masks in effect indefinitely. I hope a few of these thousands of lawsuits filed around the state start getting resolved and making it to our based state supreme court soon.

I think these advisors are just leftist plants at this point.

Change my mind.

Thankfully there is still one stopgap between Austin and Portland. Greg Abbott. Lose him and Austin is truly f'd. Austin loves to imitate any new progressive policy dreamed up in San Fran, Seattle or Portland. They used to be the weird cousin in the corner, now they are controlling the levers of government in Austin. The guy that won the dem primary for DA is a "Progressive." The Republican candidate for and office in Travis County is usually a sacrificial lamb...maybe this time it will be different. Snowball meets hell is sadly the most likely outcome.

It’s better to vote for him than not and let some even worse fucking loser dem get elected

Might as well be a communist? Lol.

Trust me, Austin could end up in far far far worse shape than him.

My Governor is a cuck dem bitch who mandates masks too, but Id still much much rather have him than the Governor’s of Washington, Nevada, Oregon, Michigan etc.

Yeah, I’m disappointed in him for that. My county was getting some really janky data from the state and we could have opted out once they corrected the data. After pushing from our county judge, they finally provided us more accurate data.

Even shut down river tubing businesses. How the fuck he thought those guys were spreading Rona is beyond me. I've watched his medical advisor speak and that guy sounds like FauXi 2.0.

Ive noticed it spreads where ever they say it spreads. The virus is Covid-19, but it's known elsewhere by the name Tyranny.

if Austin defunds their police force, Gov Abbott & AG Paxton have said the state will take over local law enforcement there. So Austin ain't lost yet! Then it only becomes a matter of time before we see the local DA and ADAs and Mayor-city counsel frog-marched out of office there. Texas will not play nice with these stinking socialist for too much longer!

I hate Abbott and would never vote for him over another Republican. But he is better then a Leftist. Abbott is naive and weak - but there is a difference between that and being vindicative (Romney) or evil (Pelosi).

Austin was always different. Grew up there. No nudity laws. Women topless at Barton Springs.

But it was more "libertarian individualism" than Marxist.

Unfortunately it has morphed.
