    They’re fully convinced there is nowhere better on Earth.

    Huh. So Texas is to Americans what America is to the world. Interesting.

    (I’m mostly joking…)

      It’s really accurate, though.

      Most texans believe texas is the greatest place on earth while never having even left their state. That’s how delusional they are.

      Pretty much, I find it’s funny that it’s considered a Bastion of freedoms and a refuge away from the liberal policies of the world. When it actually is the state with the most human rights violations and the state where legally you actually have less personal freedom than any other state. I wouldn’t go to Texas even if you paid me, I wouldn’t go to Texas even if you could promise me a steak cooked on a propane grill by Hankster Hillington himself.

        The thing is, if you think that way (“I would NEVER go to Texas”), then you’re not really better than Texas, because the only image you have of Texas is what you’ve read online or what people have told you.

        And this is coming from a progressive dude.

        Edit: I’ve been schooled.

          Or maybe I’m a transgender woman who doesn’t want to get fucking lynched by some cowboy high off of oil fumes.

            Whoops! When you put it that way, it makes sense. Lots of love.
