      I didn’t say I was or was not excited. People have things and generally they try and prevent others who may want those things from taking them. That was kinda the core of the original point. I didn’t think it was going to be such a controversial take.

          You have your life and current health. What if someone wanted to take that from you? Trust me you have things.

            My health is something I buy on the black market. My life is something cops would I’m sure very much like to take.

            How are either comparable to real estate? Are there a bunch of little holes in the nearest dirt to you the size of your dick, or is life just worth basically nothing to you?

              I had to switch the object to keep with the sentiment of the argument aka someone wants to take something from someone else they don’t want taken. The argument isn’t that a life is equivalent to land. Group X wants to take from group Y something they don’t want taken.

              How does someone buy their health illegally? That’s something I haven’t heard before.

                  Why do you keep adding things I’ve never said. It’s a really interesting behavior. It’s a bit like talking to an overly aggressive hallucinating AI.

                    You didn’t say explicitly but strongly implied. I understand what you’re trying to say, I’ve thought about it more than you, and I’m not a raging bigot, so I’m rejecting the idea you’re having trouble articulating because you can’t make it sound not-evil even in your straw man that in no way resembles the actual thing.

                    Except that last part. That was me calling you a 14 year old who thinks Ayn rand was smart.
