James Blunt, a US-based entrepreneur, asked Indians to leave Texas. He said "racist tantrums" are not worth the state's tax benefits. In a social media post, he wrote, "Indians should leave Texas. Start a movement - #LeavingFleabagFrisco." He added that many other states are beautiful and welcoming. He also criticized Texas' property taxes, saying they "are ridiculous anyway." Blunt bluntly said, "Texas is a sh******." The post caused a mixed reaction. Some supported his call, while others criticized it. One user said, "No. The US should ban the H-1B visa. Do you really think India, China, or any other country would tolerate an H-1B-style system in their own country? A big hell no. People should stop migrating to the West. They don't want it." Another comment noted, "No. That’s what the racists exactly want. These once upon a time sleepy suburbs outside of Dallas, Houston, & Austin used to be sundown towns. Texas has experienced phenomenal growth in the last 25 years. The racists have to hate someone before they fade away." Another user questioned, "Don't give the racists that satisfaction. Are you secretly on their side?" The topic remains heated as the debate over race, immigration, and taxes in Texas unfolds.
