What we know about the Bubba Wallace thing is the following:

-Bubba Wallace never saw the "noose" which we now know is not a noose

-It was NASCAR that informed Bubba and the general public about the "noose"

-It seems almost inconceivable that NASCAR reps, whoever that may be would have not known what this was

So given what we know, it's quite likely that this was an intentional publicity stunt by NASCAR to give themselves a chance to show how woke they are to try to appeal to a new customer base (people sympathetic to the BLM movement or other causes perhaps)

There is also no doubt that these types of incidents stoke the flames of racial hatred so faking them should be taken very seriously, particularly by a multi billion dollar company with plenty of media coverage.

I wouldn't be shocked if there were some phone calls or emails circulated among their top brass about "creating" this situation to allow them to step up to the plate and look woke

get down with Bubba or get cancelled

I agree that because this is a national event it should garner more attention than some of the past hoaxes. I put it squarely on Nascar.

So you're saying this is akin to filing a false police report. I agree with you.

I mean the FBI got involved. I'd say it's every bit as serious if not more serious.

If this is NASCAR's idea of how to be woke, I hope they go broke

All the news is still claiming it was a noose.

Why? How? By whom, and to what end?

That isn't illegal.

Taken seriously by what/whom? What is the end result of such an investigation?

Agree on this one. Bull shite agendas need exposure. If this is what happened in is divisive and indefensible.

It's not illegal to file a false claim that you intentionally created and get the FBI involved in a known fake investigation?

This is 100% what happened. I want a deeper investigation. I want Bubba’s emails, texts, and phone records subpoenaed.

Well. We wouldn't know without an investigation would we?

I am not asking whether NASCAR manufactured or at least knowingly allowed this 'incident' to blow up. I am asking whether we know that NASCAR filed the complaint/requested FBI resources in investigating.

That fact would not require an investigation, because the FBI/other law enforcement agencies clearly already have the answer.

That just isn't going to happen.

If NooseCar thinks that this hoax shite will tap into a new base (while holding onto good ole baws), then they are too damn stupid to run a lemonade stand much less a sophisticated modern sport.
