Woah woah woah there! I’m not stealing. I just really need that toothbrush, badly, and I can take it from you and I don’t have to pay you for it. I should give you some money maybe, but I’m certainly not legally compelled to, so I won’t. Didn’t you read anything you wrote?
Look, you are arguing a strawman, how many times do I need to repeat that personal property is not determined by needing something more or less then someone else, but by actual usage?
But sure, if you urgently need a toothbrush, and I am not actually using mine, you can have it. Totally free.
For what is is worth, I looked up personal vs private property, and it seems that the actual distinction isn’t usage, it’s portability. So, you would have a right to your toothbrush, car, and money, but your home, business, or farm would not belong to you. So if I wanted your house, I could reasonable make a claim that I needed it and “take” it from you. (Although it can’t technically be taking since you don’t have any ownership, and very few “rights” to the house.)
So, let’s follow that up with a question.
How hard are you going to work on maintaining or improving your home, if you know that someone else, who can’t live in their home because they didn’t maintain it, can just make a claim on your home, and have a reasonable chance of getting it?
The system you’re describing doesn’t make everyone free of economic violence, it forces everyone to be serfs for one giant entity (the country).
While you’re reading up on Marxism, and personal vs private property, go ahead and read up on what a strawman is, because you’ve accused me twice of building a strawman without merit, and I have doubts that you genuinely understand the concept.
Can you link to that definition? Because portability is definitely not the distinction between private and personal property. Usage is.
What follows is a pure strawman argument, because when you are using your house it is personal property and can not just be claimed by someone else.
I know perfectly well what a strawman argument is, and you have been doing it here the entire time. You must have extremely poor reading comprehension if you think I ever claimed anything of what you have been arguing against here.
If that description of personal property does not work for your individual consensus, please provide one (that is testable) for the purpose of this conversation.
That definition (in the subsection about political theory only) seems fine, but it says little about how to practically determine ownership of personal property. The commonly agreed method to do so is “regular usage”, as I have been repeating here many times over…
That toothbrush you have. I need it more. Give it here. I’m coming for the toothbrush.
That would be stealing. Did you even read what I just wrote?

Cool. I’m going to need your car too.

Sorry, but I am using my car 🤷♂️

Who is commonly agreeing to this? What counts as “regular usage”? I regularly use the toilet at work. Would it become my personal property?
