Heh, funny to say something that about something that only existed for what, 200 years, that it will "always exist". It can disappear as quickly as it appeared, it's still a young place with basically a tiny dot in the history of humans.
Somehow I doubt the guys who are all like “doing anything anywhere at any time is horrible” are going to be able to end Texas hahaha. Would they be able to prosecute a war while making sure they don’t harm the environment or without a military hierarchy getting in the way of their equality. Coming for our data centers? Molon labe.
I think your immediate need of feeling you need to defend your state is very interesting, especially considering it's a random internet comment and you'd lose absolutely nothing by not responding yet took the time to somehow start bantering like someone is invading Texas tomorrow? I knew Texas people were a bit overly emotional and fragile, I guess I wasn't expecting it on that level.
I was sure it was sarcasm at first, but re-reading their comment, I actually think you're right, the person did end the message with that without seeing the irony.
