The (very poorly understood) concept of "ownership" might as well have been designed for pwnage.

That concept of ownership is essential to capitalism, so I dunno what you're on about.

Remarkable to observe people profess at length about 'capitalism' while wholly disregarding basic fundaments of how/why it works.

Your not talking about how it works. You're talking about how it socially presents itself.

I'm referring to how it works within certain societally constructed parameters, yes. I wouldn't call that a mere presentation.

You're being too legalistic. The execution of ownership is usage. The rest is just consensual hallucination.

Sure. But they're rarely exhaustive. Capital is not merely property, it's also machinery, and legal categories don't help you there.

… machinery whose production ends will be dictated by the whims of whoever owns it. Again, you're handwaving.
