Anybody who says People's Republic of Austin (ref: Bernie movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JREkqCvLzSo) is not on progressive wing is kidding.
Also, Whole Foods is head-quartered in Austin, so there could be "synergy" there.
Similarly (but less directly), the sympathetic treatment given in the 2011 Richard Linklater film "Bernie" is believed by some to have been instrumental in the release of a convicted murderer from his life sentence.
The film is great, incidentally.
