denying a seat for other people  
offending people with your presence

Im not denying the entirety of humanity now, and future, this seat.

In about 30mins, I will get up and leave.

Is it PvP that my body exists and occupies a space in the universe?

Does a stone occupying a spot instead of another stone constitute PvP?

I just picked up a dry leaf, and crushed it to dust in my fist.

Was that PvP?

I just moved a cigarette butt over by 2cm.

Was that PvP?

Catepillars arent humans, per your previous condition.

No, I just picked it up and dropped it 2cm away.

You said a stone occupying a space is not PVP, as its not a person.

How then does me moving a cigarette butt 2cm over to occupy another space constitute PvP, when its not a person?

What if I move a caterpillar by 2cm?  
Is that PvP?

What if I step on an ant, is that PvP?

What if I rub my hands with disinfectant and kill millions of microbes, is that PvP?
