That's the threads holding the tire together, they are embedded in the tire for a reason, if you hit those at speed, it could catastrophically fail, as in perforate and blow.

That actually looks like when I split my shorts over at my brother's
I see a tyre and I want it painted black...
It'll buff out
Yes.
Oh it's fine, that's a perfectly healthy tire. Absolutely not going to get the rider killed. Trust me, I'm a complete stranger on the internet.
Yuh
Yes. Replace tire plz.
Well it's a KTM bike, so yes, I'd say it's dangerous
Wish I had a motorcycle to live off.
Yes, definitely. You need new tires. Do not ride like that.
