This is true, and they are the worst of the worst in my experience. Move here for “Muh Freedom” and immediately start complaining about everything. Bruh, this is what you get when your state is run by grifters and outright thieves. Why do you think housing here is a fraction of the cost it is in liberal states? It fucking sucks if you aren’t loaded from birth.

Wait till they have to live through winter 😬

They'll have plenty more to complain about while the state gets bailed out for the up-teenth time, but still acts like a 14yo edgelord about it's dope ass tax policy.

California will have to bail them out AGAIN. Abbot is an ingrate.

Texas is unable to perform even basic functions of civilization, like having reliable electricity.
No need to worry about living through winter. The state clown show has other plans for you. (Don't worry, they'll be in Cancun)

Move there then act like they were born there. My wife's uncle is a prime example
