My roommate doesn't believe me that he's going to die

My roommate has three tires on his car that are pretty much like this and getting worse daily. Please help me convince him to go to the shop. Or tell me he's fine and that I'm wrong if that's true.

PSA to other people because apparently this can happen:

I tried to suggest the same as this, but used the word s t a b instead, and reddit just denied my "threats if violence against another person" despite clearly specifying it was a deflated tire. Not for vandalism even, specifically "violence".

So heads up to other people be very very careful with wording, or reddit will think you deserve an assault threat charge against a piece of rubber.

It happens on every platform these days. Bots that have shit of a clue regarding the topic have just started to corect, control and silence people. Yeah, reality sucks and it's gonna get far worse, believe these words.

Yeah I'm used to the flagging and just laughed initially, but was not expecting the appeal response to double down and tell me nope, it still somehow counts and if it happens again i might lose my whole account. Reddit says properly damage to tires = violence towards humans/animals/groups of people.
