Every golfer should be forced to use the same equipment. P2W bullshit ass game.

LOL and? even ignoring the racism, elitism, complete waste of land and water, it’s also the most fucking boring “game” in history

Communist golf is where everyone shares the same ball and has to dodge cowpats in the communal pasture as they play.

Disc golf is superior low barrier to entry frequently free to play great use of public parks/land low upkeep way more interesting to watch environmentally friendly many discs made of recycled plastics not played by mostly stuck up assholes

Lived a few years in Aberdeen, the birthplace of golf. over there it makes sense. That grass grows naturally, everyone has a golf court at a walking distance, fun sociable walk (about 9 to 18km of walking), carts are practically banned there. it isn’t a rich hobby. On a nice day you can see everyone golfing, even if it is a couple kids with a couple of clubs (no need for a whole set which you still have to carry). It’s a genuine people’s sport. Everywhere else? where you need lots of water and land to maintain, and it’s only for rich cunts with golf carts? fuck that.

I’ve alienated many relatives by responding to things lie this with “LMAO that’s exactly how a dumb shit republican thinks! Damn, I didn’t know you could be this funny!” or something along those lines. Oddly, they never seem to respond unless it’s like 3 months later at a family gathering when they have had time to think of a reply…

Honestly, I’d like to think there’s a middle ground where we place golf courses in more ethically sound locations. Right now, a lot of courses are just gigantic resource sinks sitting on real-estate that could be put to better use. Better to place then on land reclaimed from strip mining, cemeteries, or other low-productivity locations.

Good. Golf is fucking stupid and requires huge amounts of space that could be used for parks instead

Golf may be lost forever? Like the communists are going to erase this post and my comment from the internet, for good? Are the communists in the room with you right now, sir, ma’am, zir?

You can tell them, that Communism is long dead and no one in Iran gives any shits about it. They don’t want communism. They want religious and cultural identity with full-scale nationalism. They could have long joined the Russian or Chinese bloc by now. They already had their working civilian fission reactors by now if they did. But they are too proud to be a vassal. They want to be their own bloc.

You know what I was just going to accept capitalism as is for the rest of my life but now I’m a radical leftist. Whoever made this meme took it just a step too far.

The Saudi monarchy ditched LIV, so it’s actually capitalism and specifically oil companies that are destroying golf.

I’m a communist and I love golf ! I just want it (and everything else) to be managed collectively. Is that really too much to ask ?
-
@SuperNovaStar@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2026-05-13 03:29
Oddly enough, it's the rising global temperature that is, long term, the greatest threat to golf. Personally, I think we should adapt the game to play on a variety of terrains instead of just grass. Use native ground cover, that sort of thing. It would both keep things interesting *and* help the ecosystem.

Golf is actually so off-putting sometimes because have you seen the average enjoyer? It's like every frat guy, crypto bro and racist pool guys favorite hobby I'm also convinced 90% of the players just want to walk around and drink outside.

If you haven't seen George Carlin's bit on golfing, stop whatever you're doing and [give it a watch](https://youtu.be/5x8nyw7-9QE?t=344).

Fun fact: Che played golf. Story goes that he taught Casto how to play because he was set to meet with Eisenhower and golf is where he did his diplomacy. Castro was looking for US support for the revolution. Nixon interceded and wound up putting Castro in the other group... which included the Russian Ambassador.
