NASCAR Goes Full-SJW, Bans Fans From Displaying Confederate Flag at Events

NASCAR has announced that it will no longer respect the freedom of expression of its fan base, and ban anyone from displaying the Confederate Flag at their events.
NASCAR made it official on Wednesday, announcing in a statement that the Confederate Flag “runs contrary to our commitment to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for all fans, our competitors and our industry.”

Former chairman Brian France tried to make this decision back in 2015, but its many southern fans revolted as a result of the proposal. NASCAR seized upon the violent Black Lives Matter uprising as their opportunity to piss on the heritage of its core fanbase.
Darrell “Bubba” Wallace Jr., a mediocre African-American NASCAR racer with no victories, demanded during a recent appearance on CNN that his feelings were more important than the freedom of the folks whose love for racing drives the sport.
“No one should feel uncomfortable when they come to a NASCAR race. It starts with confederate flags,” Wallace said.
The racing giant has been in the process of selling out their fans for years, which Big League Politics has chronicled. NASCAR turned their backs on the Bill of Rights and Constitution last year:
NASCAR is turning against the 2nd Amendment, rejecting pro-gun advertisements after citing a “gradual shift” on gun rights.
“We just heard from NASCAR on a number of gun related ads and unfortunately, due a gradual shift in NASCAR’s position on guns, these ads must be edited/changed—especially those that are depicted as assault-style rifles/sniper rifles,” wrote National Event Publications, the NASCAR’s official sales media agent, to the K-Var Armory.
“NASCAR is still open to some of the less controversial gun accessories, concealed carry, or classes,” they added.
K-Var noted that there is nothing “gradual” about what is being done. NASCAR has allowed advertisements without any restrictions from gun manufacturers until this year.
“NASCAR has allowed ads from firearms manufacturers for several years. AK-47s, AR-15s, and scoped rifles have all been featured in the past, so I guess, by that statement, it can only mean that NASCAR is marching toward a complete anti-gun stance—it is just slow rolling it for some reason,” K-Var writes on their blog.
K-Var notes that NASCAR is likely to suffer immense backlash, considering many of their supporters are rural supporters of the 2nd Amendment, similar to Yeti and Dick’s Sporting Goods as a result of their embrace of political correctness.
NASCAR may be the next brand to fall into the “get woke, go broke” trap after alienating their fans with this move to ban the Confederate Flag.
