However, just a way to point out property rights are important to culture, and government by "exercising" them to force its cultural norms is demonstrating the importance of them.

In the course of strolling through the city center I encountered a Confederate memorial explaining the occupation of the city in 1864 by the US general William T Sherman, known affectionately to his marauding troopers as "Uncle Billie." Some years later (2005 I believe) all Confederate memorials in that city had been replaced by statues in tribute to black slaves.

Property rights are a meaningless concept here. Memorials are for memory. The memory is that of the sons of the South. It belongs to them and them alone. The invasive parasites are trying to destroy a memory so that people cannot know themselves. They are doing violence on a metaphysical level.
