#property is never defined by the object itself or the one claiming the object, but through the social construct around.

Our culture is:

- building millions of new houses
- leaving millions of houses empty
- leaving millions of people #homeless

As long as we think in economic categories as long actions for the sake of profit will dominate our culture.

@paulfree14 Not quite sure what you are trying to say here Paul... that all economic categorization is bad?

On a separate point, would you say that a persons body is their 'property'? Would you say that the clothes a person has on their body is their 'property'? The semantics become very important here since a lot of anarchist theories describe stateless property.

I ment thinking in terms of (see following as a mindcloud, so not just one word standing by itself)
ROI, value, price, rent, capital, exchange, as examples.
If we think in these terms we will create a culture of domination.
