I’ve never been that far to the south but lately I’ve been reading and watching those novels and movies.
The prevalent idea is: in this world (Texas?) you are alone, nobody gives a cr*p about you, do not trust anyone because they’ll take advantage of you, ridicule and mock you. The world (or maybe only Texas?) is an inhospitable, inhuman, Darwinist place.
Not at all. Our state government sucks ass tho.
Texas is huge, and just like any other place, your experience will vary depending on where you are. Most movies use the rural backdrop as their setting. But there are huge and dense cities as well, where most people live.
Lone Star is a review.
Theres 30 million people in Texas. I’ve barely been, but it pretty much conformed to my expectations as someone who has been to other parts of the southern US, and places with Spanish speaking populations.
This is a very weird take.
In places like Texas and Louisiana, there’s like it’s own ‘culture’ I guess for lack of better words.
Not only that, you get back Woods living, country living OR inner city living.
There’s a southern I guess ‘way’ don’t know how to call it exactly. But it’s not what you’re describing.
People are nicer. Actually stop on the highway to help you.

Why do Texans assume that only happens in Texas?
You hear this all the time, like it’s something special, but then you break into it, and nope, it’s not any different than here.
Maybe you’re just unpleasant to be around lol
That doesn’t make sense. The other commenter is merely saying that they see people do the same things in other states.
That’s all. What does then being unpleasant have to do with it.
I love Texans but when I worked telephones when I was younger, only the most awful people were exactly the kinds of Texans you’re describing. Maybe it was because we were strangers but there is a part of me that’s still terrified, especially of Dallas people, because of it.
