I'm sure I have sat next to a homosexual on an occasion or two and never knew it, and don't really give a rat's ass. They make up maybe 3% of the population being generous, so its not about the $ in the direct sense. Which leads me back to the aforementioned post. This isn't about anything except NASCAR and its new young leadership showing its woke corporate brethren how WOKE they are becoming. I'm sure they want to fall in line with the Coca Colas and McDonalds of the sponsorship world.

And yes you can say, well doesn't effect or bother me or if it does, don't go, don't watch or don't take your kids to Disney world etc... And I am 100% in agreement with that. Until your kid or grandkids become the kid that cant play soccer because he wont wear the rainbow jersey, or you don't get that low interest rate as your brother in law because you or the company you work for aren't woke enough. This doesn't begin or end with NASCAR showing the love for the genderbenders ,one only has to look around to see that.

I'm sure the search is on as we speak for that Homosexual driver that NASCAR can start promoting through their diversity program.

In the meantime, grab your self a rainbow flag and enjoy the race!
Excellently put!!

Quite possibly, in today's world, where every "minority group" is looking to cause a ruckus, NASCAR would become a target of one of their attacks.....

So blackmail effectively creates support for their movement.

Hasn't that been SOP for them for a number of years? I lost interest in NASCAR when they took away points earned on the track away from Dale Jr. for whatever it was he said in the winner's circle. I want to see racing, not PC pandering. And losing points for something you say isn't a true racing series to me.

I think it likely NASCAR has a bean counter committee that evaluates potential $$$ gain/loss before any decisions like whether to/to not celebrate pride month are made.

I agree. Just like every other company that goes along with this, its just a dog and pony show. Something they have to do or face the wrath of social media.
