The perception and property rights of the wealthy class blinds them to the rights of the #commons and for the protection of unique and important wild lands. This real estate developer says "I have a right to build on that property," Banks told CBC News in an interview Wednesday. "The province approved it… and at the end of the day, that's what's going to happen." #privateproperty #privilege #realestate #PEI #AtlanticCanada

The secret strength of the money he (rich man) held did not lie merely in the fact that it was his money. It lay precisely in the fact that nobody had any clear idea of whether it was his money, or his successor's money, or his brother's money, or his Company's money, or the Liberal Party's money, or the English Nation's money. It was buried treasure; but it was not private property.
--G K Chesterton (1917) "Utopia of Users"

The rich man to-day does not only rule by using private property; he also rules by treating public property as if it were private property.

sorry 'national guard'? That's a US institution.... though I can see your point, as noted in a previous exchange I am less critical of #privateproperty than you (and otehers) are

@profpieters @baldur @pluralistic I am curious how #Adobe can assert rights to someone’s copyrighted images, if they contracted with a designer who used an adobe product and didn’t click to opt out

Very weird concept of «private property» there in Sweden.
Given those flimsy and loose property rights, perhaps that forested land should not have a «private owner», for start.

Interesting, but unsurprising to see the beginning of the commodification and corporatisation of Mastodon begin with the purchases of some of the largest #instances. It highlights once again how we have no control or ownership of our communication platforms. The solution is clear, we need #democratic public ownership of our technology/ social media / communication platforms to utilize the full potential of their benefits for the social good. #privateproperty #publicownership #socialism

If working hard would be the key to make money slaves would've been the richest people on earth.
The truth is that privileges is the real key. Whether genetic-random privileges or social man-made privileges.
The chalenge is to create a fair game market where everybody no matter his/her race, beauty, connections, etc. can unfold their inner abilities and get money for that.

👆 That’s in a nutshell my own criticism of those advocating the end of #capitalism. WDTY?
Of course, I agree that capitalism has flaws and presents unique risks, and that it has to be regulated and improved (eg, eg). But that’s also true about so many great ideas and institutions we have, and yet calling for their disappearance would be naïve and reckless.
Democracy can degenerate in populism or end up oppressing minorities, the Law may serve to enshrine discrimination or injustice, Science can bring about disasters or unethical developments… — yet there are no viable alternatives to those.
How are #privateproperty, #freemarkets, voluntary cooperation, and private contracts (ie, Capitalism) any different to the above? What would you replace them with?
