“Racism isn’t dead, but it’s on life support, kept alive by politicians, race hustlers and people who get a sense of superiority by denouncing others as racists.”
- Thomas Sowell
Well that's the leftwingers description
Good ol' Uncle Thomas Sowell.
@@Atlantafied Say you never read the book without saying so
@@jonathanblount6437 We already knew you were illiterate. Keep that to yourself.
Thomas Sowell is a national treasure.
Ain't that the dude pulled a JuUicy.
Go to your local drag strip in the south and you’ll see people of all colors racing together without any issues.
Yup
Or even the NHRA, Anton Brown, he's actually a champion too
Blacks are really not huge Nascar fans, now drag racing, a completely different story
That’s what y’all got from this lol
@@christophersmith8486 Most of us don't care about bs social justice crap. Bubba is just taking advantage based on him being an idiot w black skin.
Didn't he fake a hat crime 🤔
Just like Juicy Smollet
@@Captian_0bvious069 That can be considered a crime though according to the fashion police.
Jesse Smollett of nascar!!!!
Bubba is Nascars Juicy Smollet
Of course a white man would think so. Stop being racist.
@@christineperez7562 Only fool to invoke race is you so please stop being a racist
@@christineperez7562 But my comment rings true so I'm sorry you hate truth but 2nd Timothy 4:4 told us the people would turn away from truth and believe lies,myths....
Just say you hate black people and keep it moving.
@@pokemonwhite24 I love black people I'm fact my lord and Savior Jesus Christ was Black and he is my king! So nice try but totally failed
Would you please stop giving this man credit for winning, he was given a rained out race. He sucked all year long even after he pulled out the race card trying to get him some attention. He’s nothing more than a middle of the road driver. He has used his skin color to get him all the attention and interviews, he’s the only driver that can come in 15th or below and still have cameras track him down for an interview. He brought racism into Nascar all by himself by making some stupid false accusations. I guess now he will ride the coat tail of a true sports hero “ Michael Jordan “
Yea he’s pandering hard. It should be about performance and not the ability manipulate the public to one’s own agenda.
@@strafer8764 his performance is middle of the road but you would think he finished in the final four this past year as much as they talked about him. Let’s just leave color out of Nascar and Nascar will have no racism. For some reason every time his name comes up so does the word black. When they talk about Joey, Kyle or any other driver you don’t him them say the white driver. Media and boo boo Wallace has brought racism to the forefront in Nascar.
@@NWNASCARLADY Lynn Nascar is afraid of Black Lives Matter so they jumped on the band wagon.
@@nathanurick8320 Everyone is afraid of BLM. They're a violent hate group.
@@shepooks8119 I’m not afraid to defend myself.
yes he's totally redefined how pull handles for garage doors are used in america lmao
My garage door racial profiled me
I bet you're good at pulling on poles.
@@Atlantafied I am
Just say you hate black people and keep it moving.
@@pokemonwhite24 Shutup Jussie.
Try shutting up and driving
Let’s go Brandon!…. The actual Brandon.
Poor guy is being blamed for what media is responsible for
Let’s go Bubba
He is forever known as *"Bubba Smollette"* the famous French Nascar driver.
Bubba pulled a jussie Smollett said he saw a noose in his garage it was for the garage door
We don't watch nascar anymore because of Bubba Wallace!!!
Good, they don't need racist trash in their audience anyway.
@@ConvictedFelon2024 Relax Jussie.
Bubba is such an advocate for the black race that he chooses a white girl friend 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Such an annoying comment. THE MAN DATES WHOEVER HE WANTS. He's free. We are human being first loving others human being. That's it. Grow up.
@@lindseycarribean5113 Practice what you preach is how I see it. FACTS!!!!
@@andrew_brent I don't preach anything. I'm saying that we are free as people. And we choose who we choose. No one has to judge.
@@lindseycarribean5113 I have no problem with anyone dating whoever they want regardless of race, ethnicity, or gender. How do you think it makes a black women feel to see all these black athletes want to be with a white woman? Think about that for a moment, I'm not being racist by my first comment I promise you that...
@@andrew_brent I'm a black woman and I have no problem with that. That's his life. It belongs to him. By the way, it's not because you are with someone of your race that you are ultimately happy. This is about character more than race.
Nascar was born in the South. The flag wasn't being waved in sense of racism. It was waved with love and pride regardless of the history it started from. Our entire country was started in a rough way. The flag wasn't racist. Only angry and racist people made the flag a racist symbol.
The flag represents the Confederate States of America, _not_ the United States of America. It represents treason _and_ a long legacy of the most brutal crimes against a race of people imaginable. Why anyone would want to fly it is beyond even my comprehension, but you still have a right to do so --- on _your_ property!
We don't care about race we care about the race
Black Lives Matter ✊🏿😡
@@deadmeme5726 black flags matter
@@deadmeme5726 Stop Asian Hate. Defund BLM.
@@deadmeme5726 Only certain black lives matter. Especially when a white cop is being involved. You guys pretty much don't care about the rest.
Is this the other Jussie Smollett?
I feel so woke now...lol...this guy is a massive woke joke with his noose-gate
Bubba smollett
What a liar
He's Smollet 2.0 LOL.
Clown.
What?
Is he going to learn how to drive a race car instead of relying on the race card?
Wendell Scott was far more successful & he faced actual racism.
Imagine having to do research on something that didn’t offend you just to find a reason to be offended
Bubba Smollett 🤣🤣🤣
7:45 - lol they show his Talladega win as beating the field running across the finish line.
Beat that BLM meat
Well I mean, it was the last lap before the rain and it looked exactly like that and then they cut to him on the box celebrating. Maybe they could’ve mentioned it. But a win is a win.
@@jrmizzgaminglounge Seems like he's been running good on the super speedways. He's got the best equipment and a Cup Champion as a teammate. He doesn't have any excuses now not to be running top 5-10 races.
@@climatetech511 absolutely
“Most influential?”... ABC, Google Dale Earnhardt, Sr.
To all Nascar fans out there DO NOT let this CLOWN ruin your love for car racing. God Bless and Happy New Year.
Happy Noose Year!
Has he won a race yet ? Doubtful
The only barrier Bubba broke was the safety barrier on the track!
His only win in his entire career at the cup level was a give me rain delay!
Bubba brought politics to NASCAR, cost the tax payer a small fortune over a noose made on a garage door pull. Made it all about him, them didn't apologize!
What a man child!
His record is average at best and people give him center stage because he is not white in race. However, if he was white, he would not get any media coverage at the national level.
Suarez doesn't get national media coverage. His record is not far below Bubba's! Does Bubba or the media ever mention Suarez? That would be no!
That civil flag I associate with Lynard Skynard and southern rock. No thought of racist even comes to thought. I guess it's how your brought up realizing we are brother and sisters! It's disgusting to know Bubba plays the race card to milk his career instead of just trying to be the best on the track.
Please, I have Bubba's cup record and with a rating averaging just barely above 20 with a full time ride is not a elite sports figure. It's sad to see a race card played to elevate a career because you can not excel at your sport.
The sun needs to set on this racist media platform Bubba is dead c set on exposing. All that's getting accomplished here is putting racist front seat at NASCAR!
Just drive the damn car. Let that be your statement. Then again, if you can not drive, I guess you need to take off on another type of track. Especially since you can not perform on the race track!
I agree 100%, this Bubba guy is a professional victim and grifter.
Bubba will never become a winning or a championship driver he had some good chances and hasn’t shown much
Let's Go Brandon
I can't believe they left the comments on
No barriers anywhere. Just be good enough to belong on the top of the sport and you will be there. And from what i hear from lovers of the sport, he isn’t talented enough to be there.
He sucks
“No barriers anywhere” you’re ignorant AF
@@tjrage6168 educate me then
@@tjrage6168 ignorant? Yes you are ignorant, Bubba sucks and the only race he won was because of rain....the race car does not know what color he is
@@tonysmith2045 I’m talking about the social aspect of this. Not about his skill or his ability to do his job but his ethnicity. Maybe he sucks, I don’t know. But it’s foolish to think there barriers don’t exist. Some organizations are that way believe it or not
Stop lying
This clown gives other bubbas a bad name
Bubba wants to keep playing race rope with a loop tied in a piece of a rope used for pulling down a garage door, what a crybaby...
Bubba has ruined his image.
Propaganda
CUZ he makes something out of nothing. Just tried to get himself a name because he is NO good at NASCAR!!!!!
And black people do it this way.......white people do it this way....blah blah blah. Does Bubba just stand there and argue with himself?? He's a mixed race....COME ON!!!
LoL Omg there's a rope wait that's a shoe lace lmao!!!!
Why is Bubba the new face of Nascar? He's an average driver at best.
He's not, Chase Elliott and Kyle Larson are the superstars of NASCAR.
Hey it's Juicy Smollet oh I mean Bubba 😆
He looks white to me🤷♂️
His dad is white
Just wait when he has a son they’ll push his blackness. He hates racism but he still lives by the “one drop” rule
👎 dislike
Bubba smollett.
Bubba smollet
Bubba smolliet
Liar
Of course bubba knew it took time to make that noose considering he probably made it 😆
I can tie a noose in 5-10 seconds
Get out of the sport because we hate liars...just cheat like everyone else
Today, December, 29, 2021, this year is near to finish and you American citizen, you are satisfied with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris administration? Put your hand in your head and think, my children, my family deserve to have one president this? Independent if you are democratic or republican, think in your family only. Think in your or country. Your mind deserve this and be realistic!
Better then A Trump dictatorship
Go change Diaper Don's Depends. Let's go Bonespurs!
@@kddavis5492 Americans had better gas prices, lower taxes, Safer borders, less drug smuggling, and other countries finally paying their debts to America, during Trump presidency.
Biden first 100 days was to dismantle everything that President Trump achieved, just because it had trumps name on it. The only thing he couldn’t take away is the Covid vaccine.
Before Biden was president he said he wouldn’t take the vaccine if Trump told him too and now it’s a mandate for all Americans.
I can’t think of one thing Biden has done to improve America. Can you?
@@kddavis5492 so that's how you get rid of dictators, is by voting? Cuba and China will love this information
I agree as an Australian young man myself remove the confederate flag which is so cheesy, so cringeworthy, so disgraceful, so embarrassing, so traitorous and so stupid. This is the one true flag of the United States of America period. 🇺🇸
Bubba is no senna no Earnhardt no Schumacher no fangio no Andretti. You will be in the dustbin of motorsports.
You know some of my white friends actually hate me watching NASCAR because I'm African American my favorite driver is actually him because I support him as an African American driver
Participation award goes to.....
This is a joke!
How to ruin a sport in 3...2...1....go
Aaaawwweeee the hillbilly all upset lmaoooooo
@@BostonGhost617 you know nothing
Call the feds for garage handles.
@@BostonGhost617 how many races have you been to. Want it to be inclusive. Take your kids to the dirt track and have fun.
@@BostonGhost617 Don't bother. He's mad because his Mee Maw threw him out of the trailer.
Bubba smoolett
The noose, I worked construction, learned how to tie that noose, not particularly easy but it is secure. Saw it most days for over a decade.
Confederate flag has never given me a positive feeling. Was threatened by driver in a square body in WVA, and run off the road in Daytona by a Ranger pickup. Both displaying that flag.
As a black man my guard is up. But I will not play anyone's victim.
That flag is a sure sign of a trashy and ignorant person but it’s good that they are allowed to express there gross nature so they can be avoided.
This comments section is about to get wild. 😄
Did he break a barrier with his driving skills or his skin color. So if a man was born pink and got into nascar would that also mean he broke barriers
Lord have mercy, Bubba Smollette qualified 9th a dega, they’ll be talking a possible championship now LOL
Please stop talking about my NASCAR
MAKE IT POLITICAL...LMAO as he goes on CNN
I like Bubba Wallace because for once the father is white, alot of racist black men prolly didn't like that, oh but of course i doubt that would b discussed. To me that's breaking a big barrier a biological white or caucasian father
7:47 the test now is to see if he can acually win.
I knew what these comments were finna be like 🤣
Influential?? Lol. He’s a lap car driver.
You guys that mad??
This is bull propaganda

A lot of these comments are the very definition of the phrase "ignorance is bliss". Ya'll just keep living in that blissful world ya'll in 🤦♂️🤣🤙
Are you trying to say Bubba is a real driver and not a back marker?
Hey, Bubba. Let's have an engine build contest....wanna lose boy!
Let’s go Kyle Larson
Stars and bars
Use this for the dislike button
He reminds me of Don Quixote.
here to see all the racist boomers in the comments
here to see the rayce hustlers, enablers, and social justice woke-jobs, deflecting and dismissing the comment section with their low tiered snide comments.
shut up boomer
Dying ‘sport’. Thank god.
How do you make a race car look like a gay guy
affirmative action motorsports
Wallace is incredibly brave. Considering his workplace. I can't imagine how worried his family must be when he races. Some people are unhinged.
Dislike
2:00 - 2:30 Truth
How many circle tracks where you at last year? FU
@@silverpairaducks actually I was at Daytona in 2017 when Kurt Busch won so don't try me boy
Folks commenting on how black people should feel about racism or what is and isn’t racist.
I didn’t know white people knew more about the experiences of black people in America than actual black people in America.
Ignorance is bliss, isn't it?
