You and your community collectively owning and operating a farm is literally a communal farm.

but if some of my friends dont want to work it they can just sell me the land. And if we produce more food than we need we can sell it so we can buy other things we don't produce. I dont understand why its wrong to own a farm.

Personal property is for personal use. That's it.

Once you start to accumulate surplus property then its very obviously not personal anymore. A person that doesn't want a garden won't have one to sell you, because they wouldn't have one in the first place.

Don't think in terms of "right" and "wrong". Think materially.

Who decides what constitutes surplus?

[-] queermunist@lemmy.ml -4 points 1 year ago

The democratically elected central committee, or some other process whereby everyone decides together what our fair share is.
