I seen that Nascar has announced partnership with Carolina based LGBT organization to push for inclusion and diversity. Haven't been watching Nascar for a few years because watching their races is like watching paint dry but now I hope they go under. What ever happened to the days of going after the one with the most talent?

well perhaps the docudrama "Fistfull of Steel: The Rise of  Bubba Wallace" will change your mind. It's about this guy who finished 21st in points with 1 win in a rain shortened race but still a win, and... 3 top 5's in 35 races. Just an amazing talent

Its Wokecar now.......the attendance and TV ratings will plummet even more.........support your local short tracks, bring your rebel flags, they play the anthem, respect our vets and care about race teams and fans more than sponsors and woke culture

Do it on talent! Not money, color, race, religion, or sexual preference. Period!

Why on earth do you need to bring a rebel flag to a race track? It's a race, not a civil war reenactment. There's no good reason to bring the flag of a failed rebellion against the country you live in to a race track.

The flag means a way of life down south. We don't need you yankees telling us what flags we can fly.

The comments in and to this post are shameful. Heaven forbid we support our fellow humans in a way that takes literally zero ounces of your energy. 

 

Several of you have show your homophobia and racism in this thread and that speaks volumes to the person you actually are when not on this board.

You are missing the point F1fan!! I and many others have no problem with minorities or gays being in nascar or any other sports or sanctions they want to participate in. The problem I have is when they use so called label as a crutch to get what they want. If they are that good at what they do then they deserve a chance. But to skip over others who are way more qualified is when i have the problem. And that is what is happening in todays society!!

No one is using that as a crutch. It is trying to help them feel included. I fail to see how that is a bad thing.

I beg to differ. How can you say they aren't using it as a crutch when they have to bring the sexual preference up and have their own group? There are plenty organizations that are nascar sanctioned but they choose to be affiliated with lgbt. They are the ones who bring the sexual preference or race into the picture. WE DONT CARE ABOUT THAT!! What ticks me off about these organizations is they are the ones segregating themselves from the world by creating these groups and then if they don't succeed they cry racism. Nobody is stopping them from succeeding because of their race or sexual preference.

I personally don't care who flys whatever flag they want.  Allowing  and encouraging the rainbow and BLM flags is equally as racist and prejudice as the stars and bars are.  Millions of Americans who were ancestors of those who wer confederates have contributed to society.  There has been no burning and looting by someone flying a flag at a racetrack.  History is based on facts, ignoring it is ignorance

The OP stated they hope NASCAR fair because they support an LGBT organization. Other ranted about Black Lives Matter.

Tough to hear, but the stereotypes that race fans are racist and homophobic rednecks are growing stronger by these comments. No doubt in my mind all of you posting are nice people, but these comments do nothing but show you don't care about people different than you. It is not a bad thing as much as you and political talking heads make it out to be.

We do not need to be an Us versus Them mentality. All you need to say is we see, we accept you, we appreciate you are different and we are trying to learn more. Society is becoming more tolerant and accepting of others, which is amazing.

It is time for BLM to put their money where their mouth is. They need to start spending some of their money to actually "improve black lives", instead of buying multiple houses for themselves.  At this time I consider them a domestic terrorist organization until proven otherwise.

Hoping NASCAR goes under because they are trying to be more open to the LGBT community seems pretty homophobic to me. It's definitely disrespectful to those communities and is completely unnecessary.
