A naive libertarian might see the anti-competitive auction as fair.
Someone with awareness of history might note the unfair laws which led to banks wresting land from farmers. Then realize that nothing was fair.
“Hey I’ve got the papers, whether it is just or legal really isn’t my problem and I’m sorry for your situation anyway give me the farm.”
“Hey be that as it may the whole community has decided that whoever takes this farm is going to get hit with a bunch of ax-handles.”
“Unfair, injustice”
