Austin sucks, but it’s not because of the university.

Hate the direction the country's going, yeah. Our major cities are liberal cesspools of snatch and grabs and drive-by's. I can still love America and be disguted with the direction it's heading.1200 workers at a Tyson factory in Iowa just got told they were being replaced by illegal aliens. Nobody has blinked an eye. That's disgusting.

US Army is a major sponsor


This proves how people can't read. The bullshite mulberry harbor we're sending to Gaza is captained by a US Army Chief.

Not that we should be feeding terrorists, but FML. The US Army is *exactly* who is sending relief, somehow with no boots on the ground, because pallets of shite magically make their way to shore, so f#*ing dumb.

Nobody needed it to hate Austin. Cash out and head east is the way.

because the US Army is a major sponsor of the event this year. Oh, the humanity. All in an effort to support Palestine.


This seems rather idiotic on multiple levels. 1) the US Army isn't currently involved in the conflict, 2) the US Army is not a policy maker; it goes and fights the battles it is instructed to fight. Those decisions are made by politicians like Brandon. 3) the reason cities like Austin exist and can host music festivals like SXSW is in no small part due to the prior activities of the US Army. 4) I'm sure Bibi will reconsider the Israeli position on Palestine after hearing that a bunch of second-rate bands pulled out of a music festival in a mid-sized city in Texas over sponsorship by a US government agency that hasn't been involved in the Israeli-Palestinian land dispute since the fall of the Ottoman Empire.

I could never live in Austin again. I still visit quite a bit but I just can't stand planning my day around traffic and the never-ending liberal bullshite.

Moved to NW Alabama about 5 years and couldn't be happier about it. The only thing I miss (besides friends & family) is the Hill Country and they're doing their best to ruin that too.



I did the opposite - you living in the Shoals area?

I live far NW in the Austin MSA, do my best to cross 620 as few times as possible each week. Aside from an occasional run to Terry Black's downtown, maybe once every two months, I don't go there at all any more. It's sad to see it go the way it has gone the last 20 years. I could see the seeds of it as early as 1991-93 on the UT campus.

This is the key issue. Money. So many bands & individual artists have credited SXSW with giving them their start in the business. Do you really want to throw away your shot at a career because Israel is defending itself from a group that slaughters its children, murders its elderly and rapes its women?

Liberals are a dying breed. These are leftists. If you're a straight white male that's even the least bit conservative they want to end your life.

There are some holdouts - one of LSU's own alumni is a UT emeritus prof and a fire-breathing conservative, John Sibley Butler, but I don't think even he can get away with as much as he once could. That's why the children of this three-time Texas grad household went to ATM.
