Every single day you rant and rave about "facts and truths" to everything you post here. Lets see the facts on this one. Can you prove to us that this slide wasn't created by some disgruntled employee? Can you prove to us that it WAS an approved Goodyear powerpoint slide?

I spoke in person this morning with the head of drag racing operations at Goodyear. I consider him a friend, and I do believe him when he tells me this ABSOLUTELY DID NOT COME FROM US!

One person made a post. Just ONE PERSON can have such an impact on a huge corporation. Think about all the people that could be hurting because of this one false claim. Only idiots like yourself are mindless enough to spread it. I'd be willing to bet if your tire brand was under fire, you would do a lot of fact checking before posting something so stupid publicly.


1 if this did not happen goodyear would not have put out a statement. and i find it hard to believe that some rogue middle management person would create a power point without corporate blessing.

2 isn't it funny that one person ( ballsy-ford ) nearly ruined a supreme court nominee's life over some bs story that she could neither remember nor have corroborated by others.

3 one person started the fake Russia dossier that the left used to divide the country, waste millions of tax dollars, and clogged up my tv for three years and impeached our president.

so whether fake or real one person can start a lot of sh1t. like the one cop in the george floyd case that got multiple cities burnt to the ground and is still going on some 2+ months later.

i say it did come from the top down and they got busted and they are now in scramble mode. Trump is correct in that the left plays this sh1t everyday and they don't seem to like it when flipped back on them. bet they are thinking we have screwed this one up.

ep-just my opinion or is a conservative not entitled to one

I am going to go out on a limb here and say that Goodyear most likely has more of their products on things that are owned by folks with MAGA hats than those with BLM bumper stickers.

Communism, everything is political. Even what brand tires you buy.

Tires should be bought by Americans according to where they're made. This is patriotism (loyalty, devotion for fellow Americans)

If Goodyear made all their tires in Akron, Trump wouldn't be playing identity politics with Goodyear, because he'd be chitting on Americans jobs.

But that's communism for you. (Globalism) Everything is political.



Like I said......

I don't know if this is true or not...what I do know is many corporations are jumping on the diversity training band wagon...hmmmm...

I also know I am not a fan of goodyear products...I bought a Denali a couple of years ago..it came with goodyears on it...I had nothing but issues of pulling, shaking and vibrations....I aligned and rotated and balanced those tires within an inch of their life...no bueno until two weeks ago...that is when I replaced those pieces of junk with cooper tires...the vehicle now rides straight and smooth as silk...

Just sayin'...

pauley...KNOWS!

Only idiots like sst5167 refuse to believe the truth and the facts because it didn’t fit their agenda, their opinion, their decisions.

Oh and my tire brand is under fire and rightfully so! The Goodyear tires on my truck and my trailer will be replaced with Michelin when time for new tires.

When politics quit affecting everything (including tech) in our daily lives as it does today, them we can leave it out of tech sections.....till then, it should stay.

A saying from long before now..

Politics controls tech. Covid 19 is controlling our tracks running or sitting. If running then we get more tech from whats learned on the track.


2nd Nobody goes to political section because of cartoons.

Buy made in USA is such a strong Political statement that the left felt the need to plagiarize it from Trumps campaign .

Will I ever buy Good Year again.Not unless this is verified false or I have a no choice situation .

I don't eat Chick fil A anymore and not washing no feet as One of their higher ups suggested. You would think profites from cpl years ago because of statement would have shown them the power of one statement.Guess not.

Lot of other things I avoid because of political statements of backing. Sprite wants to back BLM fine just not with money I spend.List is long and growing.

Will I bankrupt these folks nope. Will another 999.999 folks doing same? Odds are lot better.

Does goodyear even make 24" or what ever size tire DUB'S take? You know those on a cadi that now rides like horse drawn wagon riding across a plowed field that has now seen rain in 2 months.

Everybody take a break and cool down.

The people faking the news and press releases got exactly what they wanted, everyone yelling, screaming and blaming someone with unfounded BULL Sh**.

At the end of the day WE are ALL Americans, act like it, or they get the results they wanted......they win!

There are Americans, and americans. Not the same crowd. If you don't love the foundation of this Country, you're not American.

Living here because you're more interested in turning this Country into just another sh1thole doesn't make you American.

This has been exposed by the conservative minority in a liberal voting union plant. The USW supports Democratic presidential candidates.

It's reasonable to say alignment against globalist companies who support and fund riots and destruction of our cities, private property, is no sin.

This is the problem with communism - globalism. Traditional Principles don't apply.

If Goodyear were employing thousands of Americans in Akron Ohio, none of this would be happening, including Goodyear, NASCAR, NFL, MLB, bank of America supporting and funding riots (BLM). We don't negotiate with terrorists.

Paul better get a flack jacket on and a Helmet....

I'm no Trump lover and would vote for almost anyone other than him but the Democrats are a mess and the 8 years Obama was in office proved to me their ideas are not good for America and they are way more left leaning now.....

I voted for Obama first time around and grew to regret it....

I voted for Trump and have grown to regret it....

Many racers and business people LOVE Trump....

We are in a bind......AGAIN!

2 poor choices.....Vote for the lesser of 2 evils...

If you believe Biden and the Dems are our salvation.....vote Blue....

I don't and won't....
