A loud minority of Texans call for Independence, which is not really possible as far as I know, BUT could the Rest of the USA just kick another state (Not necessary Texas) out? Or is this also not possible?

Every Texan I’ve ever met has been a good person. The only time I ever see the Texas represented in the media is in the media.
I’ve seen Texans in the wild go on tirades when the attendant at the store checkout says “Happy Holidays” instead of “Merry Christmas”…
The vast majority are definitely good people, but just want to point out that the people you see in the media are real. They are here, and they are loud.
It’s also easy to forget that living in the cities doesn’t represent the people everywhere in the state either. As long as I’m in a city, anywhere in the US, I’ve never seen extremely blatant racism. But go to the wrong areas in small towns and you get jeered at for not being white.
I’ve seen this even in California. Oildale, CA is the most racist place I’ve ever been, including Alabama, Oklahoma, and Texas. But it goes the other way too. There are small areas that are predominantly black or Mexican that aren’t very safe to be in if you’re white. It’s a real shame, man, especially since it seems to be getting worse, not better.
Oh yeah. I wasn’t sure how to get across that I wasn’t talking about that as a Texas exclusive thing. It’s everywhere in the US.
Edit: Texas is the only place I’ve seen someone go on an angry christofascist tirade in my suburban grocery store though.
But you do realize, Ted Cruz is real? Abbot is real?
Just because you haven’t met absolute scumfucks doesn’t mean they aren’t ruining our country.
Goddamn I miss Ann Richards.
Oh yeah, for sure. Ted Cruz is definitely a human.
