I struggle with this. Its not easy to simply accept that this position of comfort isnt evil.

If you hold the power to save someone yet you simply sit by and watch as they die is that not an evil act?

You cant willingly pay something you are forced at gunpoint to pay. You cant "opt-out" of a system of extortion like taxation and you cant avoid "society's infrastructure" in a world where you are expressly prohibited from developing out your own.

I find it hard to beleive that you were ever truly an anarchist because the road from statist to anarchist is a one way street. Once you've adopted the non aggression principle and applied its logic to your life and how you beleive society should run you cant simply reconcile that knowledge with a beleif that taxation is somehow fair, just or good.

You may have once called yourself an anarchist and even beleived some anarchist principles but I'd argue that you never really were an anarchist if you can still somehow justify some idealized form of taxation "for the greater good" as being justifiable.

Thats exactly why. Its the bread crumb bullshit designed to get people caught up and looking in the wrong place. Its exactly how they pulled the entire Q movement.

They are constantly digging holes that are rabbit sized like this to throw people of the trail of the real rabbit holes.

You mean all people who are all already fairly well known to the public, many of whomever are also well known for their corruption and crimes? I just dont see it. Ill concede that *maybe* theres dome unknown connection in there he doesn't want getting out but I find it far more likely that his whole tax thing here is nothing more than a lightning rod for public anger which will go nowhere. If he can get people like you focused on his subbing the IRS and what he's hiding in his tax records than thats one more person not focused on his fiddling kids on Epstiens island or his funding and facilitating a genocide in Gaza.

They do shit like this all the time to get people so muddled in what matters that the things that REALLY matter get lost in the sauce. Perfect example was the Obama birth certificate thing. If we can get people focused on Obamas Birth cert than they arnt focusing on his war crimes or his trampling of the constitution.

Let me put it to you this way: what could possibly be in those tax returns that would change anything at all? As I see it, nothing. All of his crimes and corruption are already on the table for all of us to see. With that being the case then the next logical question is "then why hide them?". The only answer i can see is that he is rubbing in how untouchable he is under the law. Just like speaker Mike Johnson recently came out to rub Congress's well known insider trading in all our faces recently.

The IRS doesn't do that tho, and never has. The ONLY thing that the federal income tax does is pay down the national debt.

As for taxation in general, I'd argue its theft regardless of what its used for. Any service worth having is a service people would be willing to pay for. Robbing everyone at gunpoint through the state "for their own good" will never lead to everyone prospering.

Taxation is the exact opposite of a civilized society.

I dont think he was trying to hide anything at all. He was just openly flaunting the fact that he is above the law. There isnt anything that could possibly be in those tax returns that would tell us something we didn't already know. Bought by Israel:clear as day. Under the table deals with china: also clear as day. Regular deals with Bill Gates? He made that pretty well known with his open federal funding of Gavi.

You are talking about a man who publically ran two separate rug pull memecoin schemes on his own blind followers within days of becoming president.

He isnt hiding his corruption, he is parading it around for all to see, daring anyone to do anything about it.

If you really think that the IRS and the federal income tax was a system designed to help everyone than you havnt bothered to look into either its creation or its actual function.

It is nothing more than a racket designed to enslave the American population so that the political and financial elite can enrich themselves at our expense. One need look no further than where ALL federal income tax actually goes(Hint: its isnt roads, public services or even the military)

They dont care about us seeing what they are hiding. They have been rubbing all of their illegal vile shit in our faces for the last decade. Epstien, illegal wars, insider trading, billions to Israel, etc. Trump snubbing the IRS was just another instance of the self proclaimed elite showing off the fact that they are above the law.

As far as government organizations that deserve to be publically snubbed, the IRS is at the top of the list and all of us should follow suit. Why would anyone hate on Trump for setting that example for the rest of us tp follow?

There is SO many things you could choose from when it comes to evidence of Trump being a corrupt criminal piece of shit. Why would you chose "but muh taxes"?

There's plenty of things to hate on the orange pied piper for.

Giving the finger to the IRS isnt one of em.
