“‘Tax the rich’ is an all too common refrain on the left which, thanks to left unity, has even been echoed by many self-proclaimed anarchists. ‘Taxation is theft’ on the other hand is a slogan many anarchists are hesitant to repeat due to its association with right-libertarians despite it being far more consistent with anarchist ideals. When taxation is the main funding source for the military police state with only crumbs going towards an extremely inadequate welfare plantation system, why would anarchists want any more funding to go towards that no matter who’s fronting the bill?” (04/23/24)
