I feel like shit is getting crazier by the day now. Is this just the last push for their total takeover or is this a last ditch effort for them to squeeze the juice before the lights come on? Not to doom, but I feel it's 50-50 at this point. Just me?

We're moving to our "Plan B" spot that has a total populous of a couple hundred. We've been getting it ready for the last two years as a backup plan, and we just have had enough of our surroundings and we're ready to pull the trigger on it.
Where we are at now, DFW metroplex, I can easily tell SHTF is going to happen here once the public happenings start up. Every time I visit Dallas for work, it looks more and more like California and New York as every day passes. It's the new liberal shithole, and many in the area are too blind to even notice it still.
Best of luck, anon.
This makes me so sad to hear about DFW...I figured there were more libs there given that it's a city, but WOW. I wouldn't have thought it would be that bad in TX. Of course, our youngest has lived in Austin for a couple years now, and assures us that it's mostly turned into SF/LA East.
Honestly, I feel like (despite growing up in the Northeast), that my wife and I are "spiritual Texans." We'd love to live near the beach in retirement...but I don't think TX has many good "retirement" beach areas, from what I've read?
In any event, again -- I'm so glad y'all have a plan, and can act on it to get away from the nonsense.
Port Aransas and Galveston are nice places to visit if you like the beach. The water is dirty, but the further south you go, the cleaner it gets.
The Dallas area is very much Blue now, and sadly, they've slowly taken over Ft. Worth as well. Me and my family are going back to the sticks, where we used to live before the city engulfed us. Once you get outside of all the major cities and suburbs, you will start to see the real TX again.
We visited Ft. Worth on an out-and-back trip to the Grand Canyon last summer and we were blown away...how friendly and accepting folks were, how outright FUN so many areas of FW were (especially the Stockyards). We loved it so much, we're visiting FW again this spring! TY for some TX beach area recommendations. I really, REALLY loved driving across TX, and visiting a couple spots in the state...again, we grew up in the mountains/valleys of northern PA, but I think TX is BEAUTIFUL!
