Doomers are oblivious to changing conditions. The cargo cult fascism of Trump is getting weaker and thermostatic popular backlash is growing.

Sounds like Rep. Emmer is talking about treating US citizens like terrorists on the basis of race, ethnicity and national origin.

dismantling affirmative action will lead to even more South Asian students at state universities in Texas, but Deputy AG Dhillon is already creating class-protection for wrongly excluded white people...will she pull up the ladder behind her?

Why "Choosin' Texas" doesn't feel like a hit
Read to the end for FlubberLover01

" I don’t think “Choosin’ Texas” was astroturfed into existence. If you’ve heard it and you like it, that’s fine...But the song’s rise required a very specific set of circumstances to get as big as it has and it relies on a profoundly broken media environment to stay as popular as it is."

Because Ds haven't been competitive in statewide races since the mid-1990s, Rs lack experience winning close races. I tend to doubt red-baiting and trans-baiting will do the trick this time.

others have pointed out that there is a somewhat centralized monoculture for country music -- a fake twang factory, as it were the parapolitical discourse around the mass production of southern accents can be dire at times

Michael Kohlhaas Syndrom @thewinedarkwaves.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
The story and the video about the story are important hooks for the song and for the image of the artist "Choosin' Texas" is sort of a movie trailer for Ella Langley

As a postcard to a fading vision of Texas it'll do, nostalgia is all about deterioration unto death. For myself, I hold different examples close to my heart, but for people who weren't there I suppose Choosin' Texas will do just fine.

Michael Kohlhaas Syndrom @thewinedarkwaves.bsky.social · 27/09/2026
The theme and the music are just fine, it's very country music to stick with pat themes like infidelity and loss and Texas. Langley's twang is a little hokey for me, but her singing is fine and so is the music.

As a native Texan of a certain age I'm not immune to the appeal of the country music of 50 years ago and it's been about that long since big silver jewelry with turquoise was the style with the hippies and the bikers and the dopers of my south Texas childhood.

Of course you're right, my observation was skin-deep and intended as such. May I ask how Sliwa is more dangerous than McInnes? As viewed from Texas, Sliwa always seemed like more of a regional figure to me, but McInnes in his heyday had more national sweep -- Proud Boys, a TV show, Takimag, etc
