I’m glad that I made you grin. Or, I hope I did. Maybe it was just an eyebrow raise? I don’t know how you react.
Group hug!

There are “white” among all those groups. He may be right, the problem may be ignorance.
Do you consider San Antonio east Texas?
I was at Ft. Hood on TDY.
Interesting, 90% of the people I meet other than teenagers do not wear their “music choice” on their sleeve.
How do you know?
Not saying he’s wrong, just offering a reason some would construe matters as racist.
Halfway through, when you drive through Texas, it goes from being desert to being green. I always just assumed that’s where “The South” began. Obviously there are differences in culture from any place to another, but I knew that I wasn’t in El Paso country anymore.
You are very, very close to the exact situation and the reason for it.
Ex-Pat:Being called a bigot is pretty much exactly the same as being called a racist.
Actually, a racist holds stereotypical views of people based on race. A bigot believes they’re superior based on those views.
Actually, it’s the difference between prejudice and bigotry, of which racism is a prejudice, and balling it all up into one word was a rhetorical mistake.
Most white progressive liberals express stereotypical views of white people.
Explain Norway and Detroit.

If the situation wasn’t what it was when Texas became a state, it logically would’ve been broken up into many smaller states; similar to how the older states were more geographically unique.
WuWei:Culturally it has much more in common with the southwest than the traditional south.
She’s absolutely correct about East Texas.
Do you consider San Antonio east Texas?
No, why would I? It’s not.
The holding of white supremacist views and interpreting the world and others through that ideological framework would be racism.
It depends on which White Supremacist views. If White Supremacists like fried chicken, that doesn’t make liking fried chicken racist.
Here is the definition of Racism:

Just curious. So the northeast is East Texas or the whole coast? Like I said, just curious.
Not saying he’s wrong, just offering a reason some would construe matters as racist.
Understood. Here’s a competing hypothesis: They construe it that way so they can use it, for political or other gain.

Interesting contribution. To what end?

And what situation was that? Why wasn’t California broken up?

Just helping to identify race based stereotyping and thus… racism… according to Tommy’s definition.

The whole coast? Corpus is not East Texas.
Northeast like where?

Same reason.
I think you know why. I hope you know why. A 5th grader should know this stuff.
