Sounds like you're purposely twisting the person you're responding to's words to make them sound bad. It just ends up making you sound combative and doesnt further your arguement

    Not really, I'm just trying to understand their position. It's not combative to ask pertinent questions.

    Its not pertinent questions if you invent a scenario that the person you have questioned have not said they support. Do you think its fair to blame someone for something they did if a person put a loaded gun to their head and told them to do it? (See? My question has NOTHING to do with anything you've stated previously)

    I invented a hypothetical scenario for a thought experiment yes. I don't think it's implausible as a scenario in a communal situation. If there is no private farmland property there is nothing to stop people just straight up taking things and abusing the goodwill of the farmer.

    Except raiders by their VERY NATURE will raid regardless of whether the property is owned or not. Dude keeps up bringing up fairness as a key point to what he's saying, and you keep inventing INHERENTLY UNFAIR scenarios that dont apply to what the person you are responding to is saying. Fairness = those who contribute more get more, those who contribute less get less
