I disparage Texas music because it's all cowboy twang twang twang songs about how my pickup truck left me. However, it's undeniably popular down there, due to the, uh, culture.
I was referring not to manure production as such--as you point out, it's an integral part of the cattle industry--but rather, Texans' use of it as a cosmetic and personal fragrance enhancer. T'ain't nuthin' sweeter than cattle poop!
Referring to shooting at Mexicans--I said that they dreamed about it, not that they did it (very much). You really need to read posts before you disparage them. That said, there's a "club"--several hundred strong, at least --that gathers at private land bordering the Rio Grande and "patrols" it. I'm sure that it's just about chugging whiskey and plinking beer cans.
The inbreeds I refer to are the white people whose ancestors were kicked out of other states. I don't include Latinos, because while many of them are native Texans, white Texans don't consider them as such; in fact, they don't consider them to be fully human. If the white folks in charge cared about them other than as a source of cheap labor, they wouldn't expend so much effort to disenfranchise them.
Texas is an ugly, unpleasant, ignorant racist shithole. But I do fully acknowledge the state's critical role in bovine manure production. Trump's manure tariffs are protecting that vital industry. No Mexican cow poop for us!
You left out important Texas song elements such as gettin drunk and other forms of whiskey-soaked regret, patriotism, faith, blue collar struggles, abject poverty, trains, mama, adulterous themes of infidelity, velcro sheep chaps, and dying or already dead dogs. You just don't know much about it, apparently.
