we simply disagree over whether or not the very act of occupying a specific location creates an obligation for those being excluded.
I simply disagree with your whole argument since it depends on other premises which follow from Kantian moral theory. I do not see my life as a duty to any other being. I do not owe you a duty to exist and nor do you owe me a duty either. Occupying a space does not confer rights. Social interactions confer rights. Rights are oughtbes, not willbes. And that is where your argument falls from, that rights are Will-Bes. Nothing guarantees the success or failure of a society's means to conceive rights. Individuals choose to operate with each other on their own terms. My landlady does not harm me by making me pay rent. She pays more taxes than I, and she is incorporated under LLC here in Kansas. According to your theory, she is harming me, but if that were so then I would not have a safe space to occupy. She provides that and more. Your theory fails to recognize this necessity of private land ownership, which is that individuals must be responsible for whatever space they occupy, not for others, but for themselves, and private land ownership confers that responsibility. It is a negative right with a causal responsibility[e.g. you do X to maintain Y, I eat to live. I live to eat...Get it? My landlady owns the apartment complex, so she leases it out and makes sure it's nice enough to attract renters, so she can live. So she lives to lease out property or to SHARE IT. Get that too?].
What you can't grasp is that Causality negates your belief of natural rights and of geolibism from the get go. You need to refute that point. If you cannot, admit it and move on. Admit that your theory is circular. Admit your [assumed] true premises lead to false conclusions.
I say it does because all dominion over a specific territory involves force and you don't...
Also, all things require force. The fact that I eat meat, means someone forced an animal to slaughter. The fact that those that do this are paid less than me, forces them to take a small paycheck for work, which could be equally valuable to individuals on the whole. Force is the hallmark of existence. One thing moving another. One thing absorbing another. Humans do it well, and do it with more compassion, since we have the means to think and whole such concepts, than the other animals. To you, a land owner is an evil vile thing, even when they themselves are using it for industries they are in, whether it's a factory, a farm, or a housing landlord. To you these people are wrong, even though they are right in their acts and their ownership, and produce good things even when you say they are not. This is the rub that we have. You paint white as black, and black as white. Your whole philosophy is backwards.
Until you admit the flaws your in philosophy, we will never ever meet of minds.
