So therefore the OP must be secretly racist??

  No.. just afraid. Fear is a powerful motivator, one sufficiently strong enough to get a lifelong Democrat to move to a Republican state. https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2017/1/26/14340542/white-fear-trump-psychology-minority-majority https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2017/1/26/14340542/wh... I understand it's an uncomfortable discussion, and I'm happy to stop, although I personally think these discussions are worth having as there are some fundamental issues around diversity and inclusion at play here. For the record, I have not once claimed it's motivated by racism.

Sure, you didn't actually claim it was motivated by racism, you just wondered it out loud. I think it's pretty amusing the only conclusion you can come to for why a person would possibly move from California to Texas is because of race. If CA has a kool-aid you've been drinking it. I love where I live, in Colorado. I would not move to California. I'm not racist though, I promise.
