What sport isn't historically racist?
Roller derby?
Nice, I hadn't thought of that. Might actually not have a history of racism
Yep. Started by punks, so late enough by cool enough people.
Ullamaliztli?
NASCAR
The one with the noose hanging in the one black guys out garage?
Oh so sports in general being chock fulla racist fuckheads makes it ok that golf courses were often segregated until the 80s?
Oh ok. Yeah.
Nah. Get fucked with that. But to answer your question, I see zero racism in curling.
Pretty sure I didn't say it made it ok. Just that it was a pointless statement because it is true of all sports that I know of.
then why did you bring it up in response sparky?
Are you asking why I made a comment sharing my thought without 100% disagreeing with OP? Cause not everything is love or hate.
