While NASCAR used to solely concentrate on the sport itself, they have now joined the ranks of other companies in embracing the rapidly expanding "woke" culture.
Their recent tweet has garnered significant attention, albeit for all the wrong reasons...

Needless to say, people are really over over this virtue signaling and made sure to tell Nascar how they feel in the comments:
"taking a page from Bud Light's playbook it looks like... play with fire see what happens"
"The only pride flag I wear is that of my country. Pity you have woke activists who want to change that."
"I am tired of pride month. An entire month where companies and sports leagues virtue signal to lgbtq community."
"I guess you haven’t been paying attention to @budlight and @Target"
"Hope they can fill your stadiums"
NASCAR is certainly playing with fire.
It's well known that their fan base is largely conservative, and this move seems like a gigantic middle finger in their audience's face.
