I’ve got the perfect solution - declare that the city is now named after Dustin Johnson’s caddie!

Rename it “Autism, Texas”, that way they can save money by just shuffling around most of the letters on the signs.

I’m all for renaming Washington to The Swamp.

Right now the City dishonors its namesake.

If there is intellectual honesty among the radical types, they need to rename Austin because Stephen Austin owned slaves.

New Orleans deleted the name of George Washington school due to his having owned slaves.

The city of Austin’s Equity Office

I believe I have found the root of the problem, right there. The first thing to go is the "Equity Office". Would they propose all cities be named: Generic City #(insert incremental number)?

Since it is the State capitol, I think the entire State should have a say. The rest of Texas isn’t as F’ed up as Austin.

Still waiting for the renaming of numerous cities in California away from the evil Catholic missions.

if you pick a name, there’s going to always be somebody who has had some type of blemishes in life

Just remove all names from all states, cities and streets and assign numbers instead.

My address would be
4415 858th St
78983, 25
70510

(the last number is a zip code)

It’s ridiculous to complain about the name of a city because it contains the same letters in the same order as the name of a slave owner.
The purpose of this is to convince us that everything, without exception, in this country is racist, and that we can not escape the guilt that goes with that.

The only good thing about Austin is that it is surrounded by Texas.

“Nope, because it’s been named Austin for more than 50 years ,so why change it? It’s been that long – they should have done it a long time ago,” he said.

Wow, 50 years, has it really been that long?

you have to accept the history sometimes.

If you are Marxist you can rewrite it to say anything you want.
