Well the fact of the matter is that force of arms dictates "ownership". Owning something means you control it.

I didn't mention ownership though. You're coming at me with a bit of a chip on your shoulder. "Maintaining your space" means taking care of your boundaries, keeping distance from others when appropriate, and generally keeping safe however you see fit. Mowing your lawn and shaving your face are the same this way.

I love the Dutch. They're real life team magma!

Lawns were invented by rich white people as status symbols, because it's ostentatious to own land that serves no useful purpose. I criticised the white concept of land ownership, and you responded that you didn't mean white land ownership, you meant white land waste. Honestly, I don't see the difference.

You're doing an excellent job of missing my point and trying to make me feel bad for my race, but the stuff you're saying here means nothing about me. Take care of yourself, k?
