Can anyone explain to me how Texas is not un-American?

I know that the collective (in general) is not all from the US, but at the same time, I’m willing to bet that many are.
Texas identifies itself as “the Lone Star State.” Their flag depicts a single star on its blue field similar to how the American flag has 50 stars.
Given that the star imagery is intended to relate to the number of states in the union, how is showing what amounts to a mockup of the American flag with one star not saying that ‘we are independent’ from the rest of the country?
Am I missing something, or is the notion of the “Lone Star State” completely unpatriotic?
