Is this something that actually happens in Texas or did they just make it up?
>>153125990Texans take cheerleading seriously.Google "texas cheerleader murder" to read about a mom hiring a hitman to kill her daughter's rival.Made into a movie.They take HS football seriously too.Multiple players have also been murdered.
>>153126937small towns in the South make a religion out of high school football, star players have gotten away with murder, rape, etc because nobody wants to put them in jail
>>153126937So that's why they love death cults. It's literally just part of their culture.
>>153125990I don't know man, texas is insane, they started out as mexico, tried to go independent when mexico abolished slavery, fought a massively destructive war for basically empty land, like literally half their army ended up as casualties, over a quarter were outright dead, and then having fought to become a real country they just up and joined the US without a fight when John Tyler simply annexed it 9 years lateryou've got to understand, those soldiers in the Texian army in 1836? mostly foreign mercenaries like Davy Crockett here, fighting explicitly for the cause of slavery in the US, which was another country thenfuckin messed-up place and they say "remember the Alamo" but what they mean is "remember the Davy Crockett miniseries from 70 years ago" like look at this asshole that is not a coonskin cap that is his actual hair in a gay-ass lil ponytail, bro is one soulpatch away from lecturing you about how tejas bbq is superior to tennessee bar-b-q for five hours, and why would you even wear a rat's furry butt on your head in the middle of a fight in texas? you would smell like sweaty gopher asses that is wet leather why would you wear wet leather if you had any brains at all well I guess fortunately he doesn'tanyway, remember that shit
>>153127075>Texas tried to go independent because Mexico abolished slaveryThat sounds like some fake and gay 1619 Project shit.
Happens all over the country.
Womanless
>>153127206nope! actually their reason
>>153127206anon what do you think the alamo was about
>>153127075Don't forget that the due to the north/south divide for slavery Texas was forced to cut off its northern tip, which ended up becoming the OK panhandle. Since TX joined the union in 1845, they only got 20 years of legal slavery anyway before the south imploded so they were essentially humiliated into giving up land for nothing. "Don't mess with Texas" should always be read as a sobbing, "Stop bullying me"
>>153125990Texas anon here. I've never seen powder puff cheerleadering IRL because I'm not a sportsball fag. Apparently it started in the 80s as a joke. With the hordes of blacks & browns coming into this state, & the amount Cali fags moving in, we're slowly morphing into California 2.0. It starting to suck.
>>153126967>>153126980In a recent thread on Texas politics I asked "are they all crazy?"Got responses from people who claimed to live there. "YES!"
>>153128218most of Texas wasn't even settled back then, only the east had any people/slaves in it
>>153125990This happens in plenty of states, especially around homecoming games. Texas takes football very seriously, so it's probably more of a big deal.
This thread feels very artificial. It seems to be less of a discussion and more of a series of talking points being posted in order with justifications for why one would be brought up after another.I think you're scared.
>>153127075it's the frontiersman way, you have to fight for what you have even if it's an empty plane. two mentalities dominate.>There's nothing here, nothing to stop me from doing what I want>There's nothing here, I have to force people to build thingsThe closest thing I can compare it to is chaos space marines. this is not just true for America, Cossack Ukraine was like that as well.
>>153125990This was all caused by the popularization of boggle btw
>>153128218I come from Oklahoma and when I was a teen I asked a friend's dad why there aren't a lot of complaints about the whole "Sooner" thing. He told me Texas never stopped using slaves and would just cross the river to kidnap kids in the middle of the night. When white settlers from the north and east found out they demolished the bridges. The Indians rather lose land than their kids.
>>153127599>>153128106I just looked it up and the revolution happened roughly five years after Mexico had already abolished slavery, and the actual evidence I've been able to find from a cursory glance is historians saying "y'know it seems plausible that it might have been why!"
>>153127075>>153128218>Texas slander? In my /co/?>it's more likely then you think!>>153127206it is, in fact, complete and total bullshit. The primary cause of the Texan Revolution was Santa Anna's coup against the federalist government and the subsequent repeal of the 1824 constitution. This was replaced by a centralized, dictatorial government which replaced the autonomous states with departments, and which everyone hated, Texans and Mexicans alike. There were revolts in numerous states, like Yucatan, Zacatecas, Nueva Leons, and Coahuila, which hadn't received significant Anglo-american immigration or had similar issues with slavery. Anyone who says it was about slavery is running defense for a military dictator, which Mexicans to this day remember as a complete and utter fuck-up.
>>153127075Haha yeah Texas fucking rocks!
>>153125990it use to be because it was seen as something silly and hilarioushaha boys dressing as girls?? how absurd! Comical!now, it's a legally protected identity.
>>153128738BOGGLE
>>153127075>tried to go independent when mexico abolished slaveryTexan here, that was unironically the illegal American immigrants.
>>153125990This happened when I was in high school in the early 2000s. It's probably seen as offensive now, a gen x-early millennial high school fad.
>>153125990Seems like something that Austin would do.
