      I’m curious what they bitch about. Aside from the weather, and the way the lower masses are treated (which they would be happy about, I thought), I don’t know of much difference in the two besides the very thing they said they moved away for. Texas has every modern amenity you could dream of in its metropolises.

        Dallas is nothing like Boston, my friend. The environment is important, not just the “amenities”.

        It’s flat and featureless. There is practically no public land besides a few national and state parks, so you can’t actually go to those places you see from the road. You’ll get shot for trespassing. Cookie cutter mcmansions for a kings ransom everywhere. Slow traffic in cities, huge trucks doing 100mph in the country. And to top it off, some of the most ignorantly, arrogantly, self-righteous people you’ll ever meet.

          "And to top it off, some of the most ignorantly, arrogantly, self-righteous people you’ll ever meet. "

          I lived in Dallas during the 90s, when the Cowboys went on their Superbowl run. It was hell.

          Why would a billionaire care about any of those things? WTF does Musk or Rogan care about public land? They can buy as much land as they want and have it all to themselves. They probably prefer less public land, since that (usually) can’t be bought

          McMansions everywhere are probably what they want too. They want to live in a giant mansion

          What do they care about traffic? They take private jets everywhere

          Ignorant, arrogant, and self-righteous is Musk and Rogan’s entire personality

          IDK, seems like a great place for those two

            Can’t take a private jet from your mansion in the gated community to your high-rise in the city. Traffic sucks for everyone where it sucks.

            (not that I give a fuck if it sucks for shit-sticks like Musk and Rogan)

              Can’t take a private jet, but you can take a helicopter

              That being said, does traffic suck for a billionaire? They can have a big vehicle with a driver. Could easily be effectively an office for them. I wouldn’t care much about traffic if I didn’t have to do the driving

            I wasn’t giving their reasons. Those are mine.

            By their nature, billionaires are insatiable. Of course they’re bitching. Nothing can ever be good enough. But yeah, Texas sucks.
