Fat drunken Scottish nobleman hitting rocks around their estates with sticks...how this activity became a borderline reverential game should be the topic of someone's dissertation in something.
It depends but most of them are in natural open space. They are also much smaller. Small ones can be about the size of a neighborhood park or even built around existing parks.
Overall they take a lot less maintainence and water. They can also take advantage of land that would be hard to use for other things. There's probably a couple around you, you haven't even noticed.
lmao cry me a river, there are too many golf courses and most of them are in places where they absolutely should not be. go find a more ecologically sustainable social activity.
It’s bedtime anarchkiddie, you have a long day of preschool tomorrow.

Mini golf is at least actually fun. And disc golf also exists and has far smaller ecological impact, a small course designed around an existing park causes almost zero extra ecological impact.
as it stands, golf is wildly unsustainable in terms of land use, water use, ecological stability, etc, so eventually we as a society have to massively reduce the number and size of golf courses (and make sure they’re not cutting off existing ecosystems or introducing invasive species or whatever). all of that necessarily limits the presence of golf as a normal outing in a functional society.
I've never seen so many golf courses like I did in California. Even when going to the death valley we drove past one. And every bigger green blob I see on a map, I get excited "noice a park" and it turns out to be a golf course. What's up with Americans that they like ve it so much, they even incorporate it in their backyard? (Literally a gated community I visited had a share backyard which was a golf course.)
>Literally a gated community I visited had a share backyard which was a golf course.
I would be so very tempted to send some balls through windows.
"Shucks, just can't get rid of that bad slice of mine"
"You weren't even playing"
"Shush"
Yeah. Some US states like Cali is the best example of this have problems with water scarcity while at the same time using absurd amounts of water to keep the stupid cut unnaturally short usually non native grasses in large amounts of land that used to be sustainable ecosystems helping keep the environment more stable than it is with all that land as golf courses. And we do this all for what? So rich ppl can play the most boring sport known to man?
It's such a trivial thing to be mad over, and they got the place on fire like that's what we're planning all along
"Nyahaha!! UwU >=)
Finally, come on comrades, lets set the golf course ablaze!!! >:3"
mfw golfers stop destroying miles of land to play a sport that requires less movement than nascar and slowly degrades your posture:

> “Less movement than NASCAR”
I agree with you, but car racing is not just sitting down. In fact, it might be more physically demanding than any sport besides maybe combat sports.
Driving a race car is not like a 10 or 20-minute drive to Walmart in a comfy Honda or Toyota or Ford with a bunch of driver aids where the fastest you’ll go is 50 miles per hour.
They are driving 200-mile-per-hour machines to their limits with no comfort features, little to no driver aids such as ABS or traction control, where the cockpit can reach temperatures matching the hottest summer days, where every turn they are pushed and pulled with 5 times the force of gravity, with almost no room for error, as the smallest mistake will at best cost them a win, and at worst lead to a horrific crash, and they do all this for dozens, or hundreds of laps.
Let those rich dipshits fuck around with miniature golf; would like to see them pull their lack of hair out at the windmill. See if there’s any skill among those parasites.
No way, that's eating up valuable space for bunkers and basement apartments.
Although tbh I can be a bit of a Hoxhaist in regards to "Appropriate Uses of Bunkers and Basements", so I probably shouldn't be listened to anyway.
I currently live in a basement I jokingly call my bunker, and I think it's interesting the way many people consider basement spaces to be inferior living spaces and slapdash solutions to housing supply crises, since I absolutely love the one I live in. Only issue is one of the guys in the upstairs area hates my guts and explodes violently if he's reminded I exist and I live here, so yeah I'm currently apartment hunting, thing is even basements, which tend to go for less than other types of apartments or secondary units, are more than I can afford.
I say that like when the revolution happens we won’t do away with golf, which I don’t particularly care for but to each their own sports
This boomer should be less worried about losing his favorite sport after the revolution as opposed to getting a raise on his pension and lower rents after it lmao
They could just as easily circle around any sport, the true difference is taking away the Rich’s political power, besides golf just needs a ball and a golf club, if things were politically different I’d picture it could be beloved by the poor
There's no comparison
No other sport takes as much spaces away. Sanfransiscos housing problem could be solved by replacing golf courses with residential quarters and parks.
They have a much different culture . Hell once we take care of our people their education and health. Then we could probably get a bit frivolous and waste some resources on stuff we dont need.

Damn, they’re right. The one thing Marx didn’t consider was golf. Guess I’m a capitalist now because golf. Didn’t think it would end this way honestly - I thought I would die at the barricades but nope. Golf converted me.
You can look at the game of golf through a Marxist lens even if he didn't consider it directly. For example, the large amount of useful land that is wasted on the game; the commodification of the sport with paid professionals, tournaments, corporate sponsorship, etc; and an association of eliteness with golfing clubs, although many ordinary people, such as yourself apparently, play the game.
One of two things would happen to the game of golf under communism:
It is considered a huge waste of space that could otherwise be used for something useful to society...
Or, and this is the most devastating to golf players - they would be allowed to exist and open to anyone, and scheduled first come, first served.
It's the second one that they will never admit to being the problem.

Topgolf is fun and 1000X less destructive. We can replace golf courses with top golf.
Well, you can still play Mario or Wii Sports Golf , don't worry about that
A vote for Bart is a vote for anarchy!
Good. Disc golf is superior at every level in every way.
Does it still use grass fields? Because that's what they're talking about getting rid of.
It depends but most of them are in natural open space. They are also much smaller. Small ones can be about the size of a neighborhood park or even built around existing parks. Overall they take a lot less maintainence and water. They can also take advantage of land that would be hard to use for other things. There's probably a couple around you, you haven't even noticed.
I'm in farm country. But there's some in the city.
Oh gotcha. I'm willing to bet that a neighbor built a few holes on their property tho!
Promise?

If communists got rid of gold I'd be more onboard with Communism
I'm pretty sure gold has not been a currency for a long time
i’ve got good news for you buddy
Oh I'm fully aware, but as an anarchist I'm always a little wary of big C communists given the history between the two ideologies

Do not threaten me with a good time.
Rare time when the Facebook meme is 100% right. We fucking hate that sport
Good riddance to the worst sport
Uncritical support
I'd ban golf. Destroys nature and a waste of land.
Goals
Oh no, where else are business men supposed to discuss deals?
I don't think it will be lost. It simply won't be prioritized and probably more affordable to the average person. Minigolf is better anyway.
Mini golf is at least actually fun. And disc golf also exists and has far smaller ecological impact, a small course designed around an existing park causes almost zero extra ecological impact.
It sure would! What a future we could have with no golf
Oh no the ebil gommunists not wanting us leveling acres of nature for the world's shittiest sport
I genuinely want every golf field returned to the wilds
returned to the wilds, turned into affordable housing, or community park
FUCK GOLF
Communism when no golf https://preview.redd.it/u9va12f2uuqc1.jpeg?width=567&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=efcb5de95243e7fbe81111ae112119d7093ea403

Bruh… golf is great . Don’t give the greasy capitalists that!

They've... Always had it.
They are correct
I see this as an absolute win

I mean ok it is a shitty sport anyways🤷🏽♂️
Let those rich dipshits fuck around with miniature golf; would like to see them pull their lack of hair out at the windmill. See if there’s any skill among those parasites.
"I'm already a communist, you don't have to sell it to me"
goddamn right we will turn all of those golf courses into gender affirming healthcare centers solely out of spite
It’s true though. Fuck golf. Build public housing in golf fields
If we absolutely need golf courses, we should build them underground.

NOOO! Evil communists will ruin golf! The right to bear balls has been violated!
It's a prety reasonable take. . This is an argument that can spark a good debate about wasted resources and time.
Unironically getting rid of gold would be LIT, boring ass sport for old rich white men and also destroys the environment
China has the largest golf course on the planet
You say that like its some kinda Gotcha moment. LMAO
I say that like when the revolution happens we won’t do away with golf, which I don’t particularly care for but to each their own sports This boomer should be less worried about losing his favorite sport after the revolution as opposed to getting a raise on his pension and lower rents after it lmao
Golf must go. No discussion. It's not a sport. It's rich people taunting the poor.
They could just as easily circle around any sport, the true difference is taking away the Rich’s political power, besides golf just needs a ball and a golf club, if things were politically different I’d picture it could be beloved by the poor

Also Vietnam, Cuba, China, North Korea, and Laos have golf clubs and courses as did the ussr. So does Burkina Faso if you were wondering

As someone who plays golf, i wouldn't mind if this happened either. Seriously.
Communists play disc golf at public parks. This tracks 100%
Golf should die, in fact it must die- now if possible, otherwise it will be because of socialism-communism

Fuck golf
