Good, golf is a ridiculously stupid waste of space and water.
Just settle for mini-golf, comrade.
I like how these giant golf courses need to have 10 gardeners per acre, while these communist/socialist-era 40 years old mini golf concrete courses can have 20 people playing per acre, withstand a tsunami, and you have way more fun.
Also actually having to fetch the ball so the environment isn’t being polluted.
Communism is when no golf.
Socialism is when mini golf.
Can I put in a good word for disc golf? Can be played in what is for the most part a completely normal park. A park with more of its natural tree and bush coverage than most parks would have, even, since the obstacles are part of the game.
Disc golf is based af. Incredibly low profile
Anarchism is when disc golf.
My area has a disc golf site at the beginning of a hiking trail. Only a few trees were removed, and none of the ground has been flattened or dug up. It’s awesome, and the fact that there are natural obstacles just add to the game.
I think the only issue (which is completely surmountable) is that while the space is being used for disc golf it can’t be used for anything else.
Just make sure the shared space has time allocated to that activity though, and should be all gravy.
I think that’s somewhat true, but less true than most other activities. Much less true than team sports like football (any of the sports anyone calls football) or cricket. It’s quite easy and normal to go for a walk through a park where people are playing disc golf. You’d never do that down the middle of a football game. Even regular golf, because of the greater distances involved and higher risk if you get hit, walking through the course (if it’s permitted at all) is not an especially comfortable prospect.
It’s certainly not something that should be taking up all the space in every park, but having 2 or 3 courses in a large city? Completely reasonable.
Absolutely. And as you say, a disc golf course is far more natural than baby ball golf.
I’ve played Mini Golf with a wide variety of people. It’s amazing fun to see fully grown adults with brightly colored putters getting angry at a windmill and forgetting absolutely all of their problems for a few hours.
So if socialism is mini-golf, bring on the fucking mini golf :)
Does anyone actually play golf for fun? I always thought it was an old timey version of linkedin style networking.

but have you ever asked yourself if your sport, your past time, a recreation, deserves hundreds of millions of water?
“In 2019, the county reported 659 million total gallons used between its six courses. That figured jumped to 827.7 million in 2020, then sank back down again to 663 million gallons in 2021. That’s enough water to support about 10,750 Utahns.”

And the historic racism and classism doesn’t bother you either, obviously.

Goal posts go brrrr
i sure hope you arent typing this from a phone or computer made using slave/child labor…
I worked at a bank a couple of years ago and we had a little team building outing to the local golf course. I had way more fun than I expected, and if someone invited me to join them golfing I’d certainly go again, but I’m not sure I’d go on my own
I golf casually. It’s fun when it’s about walking outside and chilling with friends or family.
The driving range is always fun!
Golf as a sport is a boring sport for chumps, rich assholes, and idiots.
I played it once with friends in my 20s for fun, invited by them. Was more the hanging out that was fun, but I didn’t hate it. I suppose it’s also a sport you can be a bit drunk for… though I guess golf cart driving drunk might still be dangerous.
It wasn’t before, but we should add that to the manifesto
All those unspoilt walks.
I’m reminded of the movie Falling Down, only that guy was accidentally slipping into fascism. Still, his righteous anger towards a golf course feels right.
COMMUNISM INTENSIFYING
Good
Another reason to avoid communism
The federation equivalent of JC denton profile pics. What is it about JC Denton that gets all the reactionaries so horny?
Maybe they don’t get the message of the game.
Maybe the same is true of Squidward profile pics 😂
Promise ;(?
The absolute horror
Oh no! Anyway…
Golfing Down
Checks out. I had to run past a golf course for an event and I shouted “GOLF ISNT A REAL SPORT - GET OVER IT!” as I ran past.
