That makes as much sense as saying someone has a parasocial relationship with a park, or a house, or a beach.

What a strange thing to say. You think there's something "parasocial" about memories of a place with your family? I think you may need to examine whether you're using that term correctly.

And, well, nothing was "ever yours to begin with". That doesn't stop people from acting collectively to try to preserve the things they like. Nor should it.

Your worldview seems strangely sterile and passive, like you don't seem to understand the very basic idea of emotional connection with shared places, or of trying to influence things you don't "own".
