| Topic | NASCAR shouldn't allow political statements in the sport |
| Pogo_Marimo 07/02/20 2:46:36 PM #19: | KINDERFELD posted... TC I was about to post the same topic.Imagine unironically thinking sports bring our country together. Go on the NFL board and tell me how the basic tribalist nature of sports teams made them all kinder and more understanding. Those people are barely a step above troglodytes and mostly communicate in insults and "creative" slurs against other teams. Go ask a Bostonian his opinion on a New Yorker and vice versa--I've seen people get into actual fist fights because they were wearing the wrong sports hat. Sports are purely entertainment, and team/localized sports especially are a way of stimulating the tribal part of our brain that enjoys defining insider and outsider groups as a hierarchy that fuels aggression and hate. I pray that more politics gets injected into sports, because just about the only thing these people SHOULD be able to on with is police should not fucking executing unarmed black people. But hey, even that is too much apparently. --- I presume my time here in my darkblack dragondark steel-obliterating solitude has come to its end as well. http://www.last.fm/user/Pogo92 ...
