    Fucking hate it here. Texas will be much better off when Abbott and his ilk are no longer in office.

      People like him have been in office for decades. This is Texas culture.

        Doesn’t have to be. “it’s always been that way” is defeatist and unacceptable.

          You’re projecting anxiety. I’m not being defeatist, I’m being a realist. There’s every chance that things can change if enough people get sick of the status quo but that’s a fairly tall mountain.
