    You personally know 3 people who have had to flee the state. That’s JUST PEOPLE YOU KNOW. And you STILL say the state is a good place for the most part.

    This is straight up Stockholm syndrome my man.

        Well, I’m a cishet white male and I still didn’t like living in Texas. I had to drive like 3-4 hours to get anywhere and back home, its hot, no winter for the most part(and when there was, any plans I had that involved leaving the house had to be canceled), power grid is shit and has way too many rolling blackouts. Internet service was abysmal, hot trash. The MAX speed I could get was like 10Mbps down. And then there’s the political climate… Yea fuck that I’m never moving back.
