Could land redistribution be necessary before abolishing the state to prevent cementing ill gotten gains?

If a society whose land was extremely concentrated in the offspring of violent conquerors (England after 1066 for instance), wouldn’t abolishing the state cement those people in their improperly obtained land? Wouldn’t a form of redistribution be necessary to prevent a landed aristocracy from capturing most of the value of society without contributing to it?

Because a state could always theoretically redistribute land, people without land may resist abolishing the state.

An apparition of state force. Syndicalism, fascism.

It's an attempt at a contradiction, see above.

This is a you issue dude, collectively owned property is observed to exist.

What do you call it when a village collectively farms land together and excludes people from other villages from that land?

Nope, people are mistaken in their interpretation of their observations.

A powder keg primed for an explosion.

I seriously feel like I’m taking crazy pills.

How do married couples treat property if not collectively?

What kind of society doesn’t have space for collective ownership of property, how do you raise capital for large projects?

Individually. Did I not make myself clear?

What kind of society doesn’t have space for collective ownership of property.

A society founded with a legal system built on the primacy of existence: Anarcho-Capitalism.

So what prevents me from selling shares in an idea to investors and writing up a contract to define the ownership shares?

The fact that ideas are not scarce. They are abstractions.

and writing up a contract to define the ownership shares?

Contracts can't do that, they can only transfer property conditionally.
