Yeah there’s some good people in Texas. That doesn’t change the fact that, for the most part, the entire state is a disgusting shit hole that is one of the biggest embarrassments in America.

There are some shitty parts of Texas for sure, but “for the most part?” You don’t know this state dude. Texas reliably votes like 55% Republican and 45% Democratic, and there are tons of awesome people, beautiful scenery, and multicultural urban centers here. The state is gerrymandered to hell though

No? I don’t know a single woman fleeing. I’ve had 3 trans friends/coworkers who have fled for sure, and I don’t blame them one bit given the political climate here, even though their local communities are extremely supportive of them. But no, not a single woman. Where are you getting your information? Hmmm?

Sorry, didn’t realize y’all only think in black and white like children. Fuck the most diverse large city in the country, right? And the most Hispanic large city in the country? Fuck those motherfuckers. Shitholes, all of them and every person in them
