    I agree that copyright is bullshit. We’ve been watching it get the shit kicked out of it for 20 years. I can’t imagine it’s got much more fight in it. I think both personal and private property will not go down nearly so easily - people really really like their special purple pants and their cozy familiar bedrooms.

      Personal property = what you own personally.

      Private property = what corporations own.

      Public property = what we all own, and has been privatized (outright stolen) as much as possible.

      The rich go out of their way to not actually “own” most of what they have stolen. Since even they acknowledge that it’s not technically theirs, outlaw corporations that aren’t worker owned, or nationally owned democratic co-ops and be done with the corrupt thieves at the top. Let them get a job for once.

        I might be mistaken but this is almost right

        Personal property = Things you own for personal use Private property = things you own that other people use public property = things we collectively own

        It’s not simply ‘corporations’ owning things, it’s the relationship of who owns the thing (and has first claim to all the benefits) and who uses the thing
