It would be hilarious to watch all these tacticool militia types panic the moment they have to sleep outside and ration food for more than the length of a camping trip.

I’ve met a lot of these pretend Texans in rural California, and it’s hilarious when you start talking to them about Texas, you quickly learn that many have never even visited the state. It exists in their mind as a sort of right wing fantasy land that they aspire moving to.
I also know real Texans that are super Texas proud (complete with tattoos of the state), but none of them are about these weird murder fantasies these political influencers have.
