They desperately want to believe their state is flooded with Californians. So do other states. It's just weird shit at this point.

California by it's size, is always going to have more former residents in other states than anywhere else. It doesn't mean anything and it never has.

It's a Republican talking point that has skewed many people's perceptions of reality. That said, nearly 700,000 Californians moved to Texas in the past decade. What you hear less about, though, is that more than 350,000 Texans moved to California during the same period. Maybe a lot of those Californians moving to Texas are really just Texans returning home?


ETA: Personally, I'm sick of the whole TX vs CA thing.


PS. We REALLY didn't want Joe Rogan or Elon Musk and do not appreciate your foisting them upon us.
