BOYCOTT ALERT!

Please read posts #54, 78 and 110 before commenting. Thank you.

They're being smoked out! I'm adding another name to the list of possible boycottees...namely NASCAR.

Briefly, NASCAR is not only urging NO Confederate flags at its events, but they get an extra zero for SHEER STUPIDITY for striking out at the hearts of its "heart of Dixie" fans and customers.

Here's the current list from which 3 entities to boycott for four months will be selected next weekend. There'll probably be more weasely reactionary companies and corporations coming out this week....and we'll be watching and waiting to see who they are!

CURRENT LIST

"Hollyweird" movie theaters - media propaganda arm of the Left

Disney Company (movies, theme parks, merchandise) - gleefully dancing on conservative Walt Disney's grave, company hierarchy has complete leftist agenda, pro-abortion, gun control, income redistribution, homosexual agenda, socialism, nanny-state, you name it!

Progressive Insurance - bolshevik commie left-liberal ownership, pro-abortion, heavy donor to Demonrat Party, even the company's name says it all

Macy's Department Store Chain - a real chicken-shiite liberal corporation which just banned all Trump merchandise/affiliation along with usual snarky "politically-correct" public rants

NASCAR - wants no more Confederate flags on its premises as it races to oblivion by denigrating, lecturing, chastising and virtually handcuffing its own fun-loving, patriotic stadium and TV-viewing fans.

Anything to add? Just ping me! Bookmark and keep watching this thread for updates.

Here's some pertinent info on NASCAR, Dukes of Hazard and the REBEL flag:

First - NASCAR started with competition between moonshine runners and their cars! Ever since the Whiskey Rebellion that made Prez Washington send troops into western Pennsyltucky the tax-evading illegal whiskey trade has been moving southwards into Tennessee, Georgia and even the pinelands of north Florida.

Second - the Dukes of Hazard was based on movies about the moonshine trade and transport - more specifically a movie called Moonrunners starring Robert Mitchum's son James. Robert Mitchum had written, produced and starred in the original moonshine-running movie THUNDER ROAD in the late 50's which became almost a cult movie even to urbanites.

The Dukes of Hazard TV producers decided it might be best to leave the moonshine out of the plots thus creating instead a rebellious atmosphere for the show's fans. To demonstrate that attitude they incorporated a REBEL flag.

Now there's the low-down evaporating into the ether never likely to be seen again. :^O
