The seventeen states and TX that are suing to overturn the Biden win should be boycotted

No one living in the other states, especially blue states should not spend one thin dime in those states or on the products from those states. It may take some work as far as food supplies but it can be done. My relatives in two of the states are making arrangements now to purchase whatever good they can from nearby blue states. All the Ads in those states who are a party to the suit should be removed from their positions when possible. This is a clusterfuck of huge proportions and they should not be allowed to get away with it.

We must now double our efforts to take over the red state houses. It is doable for at least half of them.

Subverting the rights of states to run their own election should be a crime, make them pay

Should Democrats in those states just stop buying things? Would you like us all to starve and face financial ruin? Would that satisfy you?

I'm just curious how much you think we deserve to be punished over the actions of people we didn't vote for?

That’s the best solution you can offer? We just up and move and let others rot?

This sort of talk saddens me.

... from people in safe blue states looking down their noses on red states. Even here in Alabama 40% of the electorate voted For Biden. Almost 1m democrats. But, you know, fuck all those people for being born and raised in a red area.

And no, I’m not proud of my state’s election choices nor a great deal of its history. But we’re not all assholes.

How about when I need to fuel up? Am I supposed to refuse to fuel up in those states?

Sorry, but I have a business to run and a boycott of those states will impact my livelihood, which I won't do.

Not everyone in Texas agrees with what Paxton is doing, me being one of them.

Why would you want to hurt businesses that might feel the same way as me?

I plan on my continued support of the state of Texas.
