You're inventing hypotheticals that don't work because BLM/NFS land is already about as unrestricted as possible. There's few regulations on them for recre use, mostly they're just about fire control.
How the fuck are you actually arguing it could be "better" when it's already fine? It literally only has potential to get worse, which is what happens to almost every plot of state owned land. Go pick a state and actually look up the laws on what state land can be used for, and it's typically significantly restricted. No OHVs, no shooting, no fires, etc.
There are plots of land that isn't for sale that is landlocked behind BLM/NFS land and that means the trailheads go through that sellable land.
How much of a cynical shekel bandit do you have to be to think that it's better for everyone to put up a fence on that land and charge people to walk through what they used to do for free? That's what it's like in Ireland and the UK. You can't get to certain heritage cites without paying the farmer who controls the one road to it. He does t own the site, but he charges you to get to ancestoral history. That's fucking vile.
What do I give a shit if "muh states" has it?
Or they'll just buy it and put it in the possession of an immortal corporation so that if at any point in the next 500 years they could use that land, they can use it.
People who shout about 'freedom' while advocating for this sale have no idea how free it is to have BLM land that isn't fenced off by some shithead.
because they think the public land they plink/camp/offroad on will be sold.
Why wouldn't it be? The land first sold will be the land most accessible, which means that's the recreation land. "Oh but the billionaires and China left you BLM land on this rugged mountaintop, just go there!"
Fuck off. The land that would be sold would naturally be the land that is more accessible than not. That means it's primarily going to steal land that everyone uses for recreation.
"Muh economic development" oh blow it out your ass with this 'GDP GO UP' shit.
Exactly. People out East have no idea how free it is being able to just.... go somewhere. No planning. No permission. No fees. Just wherever your feet or wheels can get you.
One of the areas listed for potential sale is this system of canyons and trails that all the locals who 'know' know is a great place to just go get away from things.
Will someone buy it? Probably not, it's going to be nearly impossible to develop. But if they do, guess what, a giant disgusting fence goes up, 'no trespassing' signs, all so some fucking cunt can go 'GDP GO UP'.
LESS FEDERAL LAND IS GOOD
Why?
You lolberts talk about "freedom". You know what freedom is? Being able to travel through my state and not see miles and miles of fences lining every parcel of land. It's being able to just drive out down a trail, park, go for a hike, camp, shoot guns, ride a horse, etc.
When I was on a roadtrip of the west, I never bothered with a hotel. I just drove off in to the desert and spent the night.
When I got to South Dakota, almost all of the land was privately owned. Fences everywhere. I couldn't find anywhere to spend the night.
When I went backpacking in Colorado, I picked a lake on some NFS land, and just.... went there. No permits. No fees. Unregulated wilderness.
THERE ARE ZERO PROS FOR NORMAL PEOPLE.
This is just faggy "GDP GOES UP" retarded nonsense.
Nobody. OP lied and photoshopped his "evidence".

This was a screenshot that predates OP's screenshot by 21 minutes - compare the times on real_ali_shah's comment. The account is verified.
OP doctored his post.
The real 'Great Awakening' should be that you guys are lied to by your "friends" on here constantly. Conspiracy theorists lie more than the MSM. This is a perfect example. None of you even questioned whether or not he simply erased the blue check. Which he did.
THIS IS A COMPLETE AND TOTAL LIE.
OP has a comment from real_ali_shah posted 44 minutes before he made the screenshot.

David Gilbert screenshot the post. real_ali_shah's comment is only 23 minutes old. Meaning it was taken 21 minutes before OP's screenshot.
In David Gilbert's post, "officialjohnmcafee" is verified in the top right.
So the question is,
WHY DID OP FEEL FIT TO BLATANTLY LIE?
And you think an IMMORTAL, DEATHLESS CONGLOMERATE OWNED BY FOREIGN IMVESTORS would be better off owning the land forever?
You haven't made any case. The land is fine as it is. Any changes to this situation are nothing but negatives for the vast majority of people.
The only argument I ever heard is "the government should own zero land" which is a statement as retarded and meaningless and void of argument as "no human is illegal".
It's some gay libertarian bullshit and libertarians are overwhelmingly traitors as proven over and over again.
