I’m afraid the net result is just a lot of very Liberal people flooding into Red states. Not good.

[Pikachu_Dad]

at this point, does it matter?

[Daveinyork]

Fine. As long as they remember why they left when they vote in their new location.

[Freee-dame]

The leftists who are destroying our country are not liberal. Liberals are for free speech. We need to use the term “leftist” for the people suppressing free-speech.

[brownsfan]

They just begin to realize that ARE stupid. And they bring their stupid with them to their new, formerly red homes.

'So he and his family moved to Austin. For the same price as their three-bedroom apartment in Cupertino, they have a five-bedroom home on an acre of land.'

Joy.

[Prole]

While Los Angeles is America's sewer, San Francisco is America's dumpster.

Such horrible creatures are these Satanic leftists.

[noiseman]

“You start to feel stupid.”

He could have saved a lot of time and heartache, and just asked one of us.

Tech workers are a tiny [percentage of the population in states like Texas, as compared to say Hispanics. Trump increased his share of the Hispanic vote overall and in states like Texas.
There simply isn't enough Computer Science PhD’s anywhere to make any difference to anything.

[Harpotoo]

They won’t. I just look at my Wake county.

[romanesq]

A dispersion of dumb condescending leftist voters is not bad if they are surrounded by people who speak to them in American and they are out of their bubble.

Some may turn and realize the lies. Not all but some.

Look at the bright side. Sadly, Election Theft 2020 is full bore.

[Jumper]

There can never be another honest election as long as those who stole this election are alive.

[Frapster]

Exactly - any conversation I have with conservative young people is filled with ideas of ‘America has changed and you’re clinging to the past’.

[lakecumberlandvet]

They won’t. One bad apple spoils the barrel. A lot of bad apples speeds the rot.

[adorno]

The leftists who are destroying our country are not liberal. Liberals are for free speech.

Liberals are NOT for free speech. They haven't been that for decades. If they continue voting for democrats, and democrats are for suppressing free speech, then, those 'liberals' are not the liberals from decades ago.

[SmokingJoe]

‘So he and his family moved to Austin. For the same price as their three-bedroom apartment in Cupertino, they have a five-bedroom home on an acre of land.’

********
Joy.

Not only that, he pays no state income taxes in Texas, so his take home pay is considerably higher. Not to mention the streets are not full of sh*t like in San Francisco.

[Theoria]

The conquest will be over soon.

[noiseman]

Fine. As long as they remember why they left when they vote in their new location.

That would require at least a modicum of self-awareness and humility. Leftists possess neither. Thus, the guy in the article doesn’t just move his family, battered by the consequences of leftist policies, to Texas. Oh no, he moves them to the Peoples’ Republic of Austin, where they’re guaranteed to suffer yet again in multiple ways, while continuing to vote for more leftism.

This guy has learned nothing. He didn’t really want to escape leftism. he just wanted a cheaper place to live.

[SmokingJoe]

And Dems still lost Texas by a bigger margin than they did in 2016.
Plus Trump won even in 94% Hispanic counties like Zapata County, which Hilary Clinton won by over 30% in 2016.
