I know kids these days mostly don't care about cars, but I have always loved the freedom, speed, and beauty. Well, one of my few remaining friends from the days of sanity (really, I've dumped people, chicken sandwiches, jobs . . . ) has called me a racist and has to go. Yep, the fools at my old, irreverent car magazine have turned to reverence and joined the BLM cult by publishing an article on Bubba "It's a Noose" Wallace that glorifies Floyd and Arbery, and calls me a racist fool for not buying their lies. No, you're the fools, and nobody will miss you when you woke idiots go broke.

Hate to hear this. One of the reasons I joined that other (earlier) subreddit was because of posts like this. The pressure to conform is great and for some people, it is all politics, all the time. Please remember to be good to yourself, these are tough times.
Which mag?
Car and Driver. Same people as Road&Track these days, though.
That shit better not be coming to Hemmings Classic Car.
Guess I'm getting my car reviews from Doug Demuro now.
C&D was pretty elistist and left-leaning even back in the Sixties, when I was buying it. I haven't actually read it for decades, but what you're telling me, while sad, does not surprise me in the least.
Going to have to be a bit elitist to review Ferrari and Porsche, but it also had a huge anti-authoritarian streak. Who likes rules when you're trying to go fast and have fun?
