Peter Kropotkin, do you suggest avoiding taxes?
Taxes taken to fund domination, war, and privilege are not contributions of free people. In a just society, contributions would be voluntary, cooperative, and based on communal need. As long as the state compels payment, the ethical dilemma persists: does one feed the machine, or refuse it?
But—I am a realist. The state has vast machinery for punishing the lone rebel. One must always weigh the consequences not only for oneself but for one’s family, comrades, and the causes one hopes to advance.
So - do not let the state own your conscience. But resist in ways that strengthen your community, not in ways that isolate you or leave you vulnerable to punishment. The revolution needs you free, not imprisoned.
