It is a joke.
They are intimating that texas makes so many mistakes that "Don't mess with texas" may be a blowhard boast to texans, but to everyone else it means "just let the idiots wreck themselves"
Also that 'Texas' is synonymous with 'enemy' for all Americans.
Still has nothing to do with translating anything from any other language.
And since they doubled down on it being the actual origin when pressed on it, I don't think they were joking.
..it was pretty obviously a shitpost, dude.
Absolutely not. You don't double down on a joke.
