Uncritical support to XR radlibs with this. Fuck golf. Replace all golf courses with wildlife preserves and :gulag: all members of country clubs. They are without fail the worst people I’ve ever had the dissatisfaction of being around

I remember years ago I was reading an Economist article, and on the side was an ad for a book. I briefly glanced at the ad, the author had a Chinese name, he was some ex CPC party member or something (I don’t recall exactly), the picture on the front cover was about golf, I read the description and it was about his “courageous” effort to legitimize golf as a sport in China and destigmatize it as a decadent Western bourgeois activity heh.

can’t these demonic freaks just golf on dead grass? Why does it need to be green?

I don’t think you can play on dead grass. At least, it would require a lot of player adjustment.

Oh wow 15000 French people work at golf courses?!

I wonder how many French people fucking drink water.

Do you know how many professional dog-kickers would be put out of a job by this “animal cruelty” law? A dog-kicker who can’t kick dogs is like a hamster eater that can’t eat hamsters!

That’s like US coal companies crowing about losing jobs due to increased regulations. Fucking Arby’s employs more people than the entire coal industry in the US.

Absolutely.

I’d love a whole thread of ideas on how to sabotage golf courses, golfers and their little country clubs.

one of the first thoughts is: what horrible virulent weeds can be introduced? animal pests? but when you realise the bourgeoisie have no souls we’re probably escalating an ecological battle they’re willing to use agent orange to win. the other route, directly killing grass by introducing chemicals yourself, such as salt is not environmentalist praxis.

so what else? sprinkler system sabotage, building/vehicle/maintenance sabotage. the difficulty then is simply not getting caught or hurt in the commission :sabo:

Things that smell really really bad in the holes. Preferrably something that is kinda oily so it will stick to the ball and gloves/hands of the golfers.

Fish emulsion (sorry for this one vegans)

Compost tea mixed with a bit of vegie oil

Rotten potatoes (lacking in oil, but definitely reeks of death)

Same I can’t stop thinking about it.

Superglue the sprinkler heads shut? Only partially glue them shut so it’s less obvious they’re not working? fill them or cover them with concrete? Drill holes in the heads so the water floods one part and the rest of the grass dies?

Plant tree seeds on the fairway?

Steal the holes? Maybe something like this with the concrete is enough to shut it down for a few days, if it’s repeated often enough it would at least cost the course a lot of money. Might not be enough to close it permanently if it’s got a membership system

Plant something that’s really hard to get rid of, ideally in the rough so it’ll take a while for them to notice it and it’ll have spread.

Ideally you’d use a native plant that’s a pain in the ass, if there is one. But obviously I don’t know your native plants, so: Japanese knotweed is infamously hard to get rid of and invasive just about everywhere. Horseradish is readily available in grocery stores, and is easy to plant (just bury a piece of root 3 inches deep at a 45 degree angle), and has an alarming number of ways to spread itself.

wouldn’t it be really easy for the golf courses to just dig another small hole? easier than fixing broken glass windows

digging a new hole is easy, they do it all the time by filling in the old hole with soil, but here you’d still be left with a cylinder of cement in the middle of your green which you either a) have to dig out and treat the surrounding grass, fucking up the green or b) leave in place, fucking up the green

They have to dig out the cement, they can’t just leave it.

Indeed, hopefully it’s a sign that at least some in XR are gonna start doing actual cool shit rather than painting their hands and turning themselves in to the police lmao
