I'm 40 now and have been collecting comic books and baseball/football/hockey cards since I was about 9. I'm sure most of you have heard how sports cards have been booming since Covid started and I was wondering if this was a hobby that could be taken over by the woke mafia like comic books. It is a hobby that is enjoyed by a large percentage of guys so that is one target. I am almost waiting for the headline telling me that baseball cards are "problematic".

They'll try to invade everything under the sun. Whether they will be successful is another matter.
So far they haven't fucked with RC aircraft. Probably because it's too expensive and takes too much skill.
Lots of regular assholes though.
Got my FAA certs for RC. Active member of Monroe, La AMA Club.
Yeah, those are the regular assholes I was talking about. "Hey, you can't fly that here. You can only fly at a club. No, we're not accepting new members. If we were, there'd be a $100 initiation fee, and a year's probation before you can fly (but you still get to pay dues), if we don't blackball you (in which case you don't get your money back). Also the field's only open 4 hours a week, 2 of which are during working hours. And more senior members get priority at the field. But we expect you to mow the lawn. Sucker,
I just fly wherever I can.
