Not my argument. Whites are usually treated better, but to not acknowledge that SJW bullshit isn't making that line a lot thinner is also racist. People assigning harsher punishment to white kids out of racism guilt is still racism.

The goal is to treat all races the same. Anything else is still racist bullshit. Bullies should get their due. Kids defending themselves should get rewarded. Simple as that.

And I think the word is plurality, largest single group but less than half. Which is neither here nor there.

It's not SJW bullshit, it's true equality actually happening. Don't like It? Stop voting on loving gun rights and vote on human rights.

White people are starting to be treated like poo poo...The same as every other loving race has been.

Boo loving hoo your privilege.

Tires:

My car came with a spare set of wheels so now I have no excuse to not have legitimate seasonal swaps. Right now I have winter tires on and nothing on the spare set but because the seasons are changing I've been thinking about what I want to do. I can't decide between summers or just a good set of all seasons for the warmer weather since I live in an area where the lines between winter and summer are pretty blurred.

Thoughts/recommendations?

If you have good winter tyres already, I'd get really good summer tyres with no consideration for cold-weather performance. If your winter tyres are a bit crap, a good (true) all-season may be all you need.

If your seasons don't approach freezing then I'd wear summers. Performance sure but also braking would be better.

It would probably depend on if it gets regularly below 40°f where you're at during summer. If yes, get all seasons and where the gently caress do you live, the god damned north pole? If no, get summers and hoon on those. Fwiw, the riken raptors I have on year long been excellent all year long, even through our short cold snaps. They're still for the first 500ft or so, then start warming up and go back to normal. Absurdly good in the wet too.

Thanks for the replies.

I'm in MN. Summer temps aren't a concern, its mostly spring and fall which can oscillate between freezing and warm pretty regularly. So I guess its a choice between Winter/Summer which means using the winters longer and wearing them faster vs Winter/All-season which allows me to have the all-seasons on longer. I'd like to say I'd use summers May-October, but light snow in May and October is not unheard of.

That said summers would be the right tool for the job for sure in June-September.

It kinda depends on the car and your driving style besides the other things mentioned. What vehicle are we talking about here?

Summer tires on a Prius are going to have a lot less benefit than summer tires on a Miata.

I wouldn’t bother with summer tires in that case. They tend to wear out quick, the last set of pilot sports I had lasted 12k. Just get a good set of all seasons and a set of winters.

This seems like a statement at first hand might be reasonable. However, this is a defense used by white nationalists who get their dog-whistles called out. I would highly advise you don't do this as this is the text book example of a dogwhistle itself - People who are well aware of what white nationalists say to hide their real views, plus the ways they use to prevent critique and present them as respectible will be looking at you with suspicion.

Hi hello please remember to discuss ideas and not people when talking about the worst possible topic ever: politics.

Acting as if your political opinion is the only relevant opinion will not be tolerated. Acting as if someone else is somehow not a good person, or is intentionally trolling you, because they share differing views than you will also not be tolerated.

When reading something you do not like, please stop and consider that you may be about to react without logical insight on a subject, or may be too emotionally charged about that subject, and may be about to devolve a conversation into a slapfight. If you do this I will be very angry.

If you think this incredibly general, bi-partisan post is singling you and/or your compatriots out, you are too emotionally charged and should take a 10 minute breather or a warm bubble bath or get some sleepytime tea.
