I genuinely believe that a lot of liberals just don't have a connection between vast property ownership and the nefarious amounts of influence that gives a person in society. Like, they see a Bezos or a Gates hoarding ludicrous amounts of land and only regard it as an investment vehicle scaled to massive wealth earned elsewhere, to preserve their wealth on that very individualistic level. They don't have the framework to connect the sheer mass of perpetual wealth that such land ownership entails and the amount of power a person holds over society because of it.

Most liberals see property ownership as "having a private home and maybe a few acres of real estate with a vacation house upstate" rather than "owning half the arable land in Iowa" or "controlling the nation's largest aquifer".

It's very much an out of sight, out of mind perspective.
