BREAKING: NASCAR apologizes to 'LGBTQ+ community' after allowing Gov Abbott to wave green flag
Post Millennial ^ | 6/1/22 | Roberto Wakerell-Cruz

Posted on 06/01/2022 10:05:05 AM PDT by markomalley

NASCAR apologized to the LGBTQ community on Wednesday, for so-caled "recent actions" that may not have "alligned" with the auto racing giant's "mission to be a welcoming sport for all."

"As we celebrate the LGBTQ+ community, we acknowledge that recent actions have not alligned with NASCAR's mission to be a welcoming sport for all," the statement said.

"We remain steadfast in our commitment to create a more inclusive environment – in our workplaces, at the race track & in the stands," the post concludes, along with along with a graphic featuring the so-called "progress" pride flag and a message wishing fans a happy pride month. That "progress" flag is representative of dozens of sexual orientations, gender identities, and racial identities where they link with sexual orientation or gender identity.

NASCAR goes woke, and I’m done with them since the beginning of their cave-in.

Same with the sports teams and their knuckling-under and kneeling/pandering.

Big money dictating the Agenda, and everyone’s afraid to fight back....

Shove your financials up your keester, we’ll stay Americans.

NASCAR doesn’t care about its fans. Its customers aren’t the fans. Its customers are the corporate giants who advertise on the cars and the TV broadcasts.

Welcoming to all, except those who are opposed to buggery and can tell the difference between a man and a woman without a PhD in biology.

Yeah, I’ve always been a fan of rally racing and Grand Prix but racing in a circle isn’t my thing.

Having said that, I was on the track one time in Bristol. Was amazed at how small the track was and how steep the banking was.

Maybe it’s because I use to race on them but nothing is more exciting than dirt track racing.

A good enduro or demo after is always fun too.

Watching million dollar cars go fast and turn left doesn’t do much for me

Time for a new organization that returns to its roots and the old southern tracks. Forget about appealing to California, Chicago, etc.. Go where the real fan base resides and appreciates the sport.

Long gone are the days when activists sought tolerance. They now seek submission and do not tolerate defiance.

“This is going to be a loooooong month.”

And depressing. It’s gotten so that in this country there’s nothing more worth celebrating than men taking it up their asses and delusionals who believe women have dicks and men can get pregnant.

I used to watch the big track races like Michigan and Daytona and others. Loved to watch the race and keep tabs on times, teams, track specs etc. No longer. I haven’t tuned into a NASCAR race in a couple of years. Now? Screw ‘em.

I gave up on Nascar long ago.

Got rid of cigarette advertising, the Confederate flag and brought in detergents ads, restrictor plates and now homo flags.

F__k Nascar.

Is the green flag for “go”?

If they want to be apolitical why are they apologizing?

I lost the little interest I had left in NASCAR when the white liberal bigwigs placated that Jussie Smolett wannabe and the race pimps over a garage pull rope.
