i would expect democractically within the community. There are plenty of issues we both face where there is no clear inflection point, not a big deal.

But this just boils down to a complete absence of private land. If the social norm is such that the allocation of land to individuals is decided democratically, then an individual does not own land in any meaningful sense; the majority always has eminent domain. "Private" land in such a system would be illusory; land can only appear to be private if the majority have elected for the "owner" to have it.

Private property is fine, to the extent that it is being used. If you have people with no home, and a house or factory that is abandoned, the people should be able to move in and claim shelter.

This is certainly better than landlordism, where a few people decide who lives where instead of the community as a whole.
