Was talking about this with someone today. People, especially the right-winged, will associate the so-called far left wing with Communism/Marxism. But I find it weird that any scale would just happen to have that as the far end of the spectrum. If you were to go down the scale to the very, very end, what political statement/remark would be the closest thing to the very tip of the spectrum? Something like "the robots should take over" or something?

Certain breeds of dogs have been intentionally made to be that way by humans. The comment I responded to was regard to an unqualified statement about animals in general and as a whole. That there is some inherent sense of "ownership" present to all animals. The argument being best backed up by a domesticated animal shows how silly it is.

Ok, magpies.

No, I don't think all animals necessarily have a significant sense of ownership. But plenty do.

This is the argument you are defending:

Private Property seems like a natural extension of Animal Territory ( animals fight over boundaries and expressed need for an area to roam )

How much roaming territory does a magpie express?

Silly argument.
