There has been several conservative memes about golf courses going away or liberals taking them away. Did I miss some news about that?

I suspect it comes from Trump “winning” at his own golf course, and Biden mocking him for it, leading to fake outrage that the noble institution of golf is being disparaged. Conservatives are fucking stupid, just move on.

First I pretended they came for my gas range, and I said a lot of stuff because I’m addicted to outrage.

Then I pretended they came for my country club, and I said even more thanks to my throbbing outrage boner…

Well, there’s a lot of trees on most golf courses, which attract birds. Birds have to poop too, and well gravity lead the shit down to the golf courses.

They waste an insane amount of water and there’s lots in places where water is in short supply.

So, it’s like when they say Biden is going to force everyone to become vegan when people point out how the beef industry causes global warming.

There’s a small kernal of truth at the very center:

Golf courses aren’t worth their environmental impact.

But no one in power gives enough of a shit to do anything about it. It’s being exaggerated so people get upset

It’s an easy target to generate outrage. Most courses that are closing either aren’t profitable or the owners feel are better selling for the land.
