Despite having a predominantly blue-collar fanbase, Wallace seems unable to resist sharing his woke ideals, and his latest statement is a real doozy.
NASCAR has decided to embrace the DEI ideology, which stands for diversity, equity, and inclusion, following the footsteps of many other companies. Naturally, Wallace is thrilled about this move and is telling fans who don't support it that they are outdated and should take a hike.
From Breitbart:
Wallace, who threw out the first pitch at a Cubs game in Chicago this weekend ahead of the NASCAR Chicago Street Race, also hosted an event in the Windy City called Bubba’s Block Party. During the event, Wallace spoke to reporters about NASCAR’s efforts to be inclusive and diversify. He also had some rather undiplomatic words for any fans who aren’t receptive to those efforts.
“There are three types of people: ones that will accept change, the ones that are on the fence about change and the ones that will never change,” Wallace told the media.
“You can never get through the minds of the people that will never change. So we don’t really focus our energy on those people. Unfortunately, a lot of people don’t like the change that we’re doing as a sport to tap into different demographics and make the sport more welcome and inclusive. That’s on them. They’ll have to live with that. For us, we continue to march forward.”
This guy is a self-righteous turd, simply put.
Unfortunately, NASCAR and their newly adopted woke campaign are only encouraging such behavior from Wallace.
Both NASCAR and Wallace are aware that despite their politically charged approach, racing fans have no alternative but to continue supporting the brand.
That is unless a contender against NASCAR pops up...
