Rejoinder to Wąsiak on Eviction and Negative Homesteading

Wąsiak (2025) sharply criticizes one of my theories – that having to do with negative homesteading. He offers two sets of arguments. One, that negative homesteading is erroneous and incompatible with the libertarian philosophy we both share. Two, even if negative homesteading were valid on its own, it would still be incompatible with yet another hypothesis I have concocted, namely, evictionism, a compromise position between the pro-life and the pro-choice perspectives on abortion. In my rejoinder I maintain that although he has launched brilliant and incisive points in support of his claims, my two theories, negative homesteading and evictionism, remain valid and unscathed, albeitly subject to important criticisms.
