Communism is when no golf.
Socialism is when mini 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 :)
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.
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.
