If you can’t compare how capitalistic two situations are, you can’t claim that they are equally capitalistic either, which you are implicitly doing.
No, I’m saying “domain error”.
Being able to justify your argument also implies being able to justify the things that it implies. This is true whether you claim those things or not.
Again: “Domain error”. More explicitly, this time.
In this case, you’ve said that you can characterize ownership of land as being enabled by the government on the grounds that you need government force to keep owning it. This argument extends both to other kinds of ownership (including farms and buildings) and other kinds of rights. It is equally true that you rely on government force to keep owning a building, and it is equally true that you rely on government force in order to prevent someone from killing you.
Ownership of land is an exclusive right of conversion, whereas ownership of farms and buildings is an exclusive right of the -product- of conversion. Your argument about preventing people from killing you is yet another attempt to shift domains; domain error, again.

You’re shifting arguments. Your argument wasn’t “conversion”, it was that the government will protect your claim by force. Protecting your claim by force is something that applies to land, buildings, and the right not to be murdered. Of course, if you bring up a new argument, anything I say about your old argument may not necessarily apply.
Actually, you shifted arguments, and I permitted it in that case, but nice attempt to try to berate me for what you’ve been doing all along. But at any rate, at this point I must conclude discussions with you can’t be productive, because as soon as you realized I wouldn’t permit you to change the subject and pretend we were having the same discussion, you instead resorted to petty debate tactics. Good day.
The only reason you can or cannot own land in the first place is that government has asserted that land is something that you can own, and will protect your claim of ownership by force.

I didn’t change the subject. It’s right up there.
