No one mentions liberals moving to states like Texas to spread their poison with THEIR bs.


Not gonna happen this November but I would not be surprised if Texas goes blue in at least one presidential election within our lifetimes.

The last time Texas went Democratic in a presidential election was 1976

Eh idk. I’ve been there more than any other state for work and what not. I’ve had multiple run ins with several assholes who think they’re better bc they live in CA. All these have happened on the coast, never inland. I’m not a confrontational person either. I don’t go looking for a fight, but there’s a reason Californians have the reputation they do.

Context for these run ins?

I get wanting to leave CA, but why move to a shithole state like TX ?


Short answer- because misery loves company. Imagine having access to anything on earth. The best food. The best places. The best women…but he’s still gonna poor mouth about a few bucks here and there. The man literally has two wives and the money to keep them and he’s boo hoo boo hoo my workers want bathroom breaks.

He will enjoy the army of angry single mother realtors with similar frivolous complaints in Texas. Pretty sure Texas is home to the world’s largest population of girl boss nurses, too. They all deserve each other.

Hey I don't know if anyone's gotten a chance to tell you today, but you're kind of an a-hole. Just thought someone should let you know.

And the areas that are nice are shrinking. West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and Malibu. Most of the rest of Los Angeles sucks now and is filled with Kenner looking areas that are 80% foreigners


You made all of this up.

I don't understand why billionaires would want to live in CA


Where do I start:
1. It has one of the most powerful economies in the world and the highest median household income out of any state.
2. Beautiful beaches, mountains, and a Mediterranean climate. Weather is mild for almost the entire year. Never gets too cold and never gets too hot.
3. Job opportunities are some of the best in the US for almost every career field

If Elon really wants to make a statement, stop selling Teslas in CA. Just close shop in the state entirely


So stop selling in the state that bought six times as many Teslas as the next highest state? :The state that bought more than the next 10 highest states combined?

First incident was at Dennis the Menace park there. I spit my gum out on the ground and some guy started following me screaming at me about how I was loitering and polluting the area. Def an overreaction, esp to a little kid. Dude was an absolute psycho. My mom had to get in the dudes face to get him away from me.

Being an a-hole? No.

Berating a kid for spitting out a piece of gum? Only some tree hugging douche from the west coast would even think about doing something like that.

You say you’ve had multiple run ins while there for work, I ask for context, and you reply with an incident when someone yelled at you for being a shithead when you were a kid?

I’m trying to figure out if you’re fricking with me

I said I went there for work and what not. My original OP I also mentioned I grew up going there. Part of my families business was out there, which is why I’ve been out there so much over the years. Both as a kid on vacation and as an adult working.

You believe it, then cool. If not, that’s cool too. Just providing some context like you asked.

Yep. I’d never claim residency in California, but I’d live there in a heart beat.

It's not that I don't believe you; it's that some guy shouting at a shithead kid who spit their gum on the ground a couple of decades ago just doesn't seem responsive to my asking for more context for this statement:
