Is humanitarianism compatible with what you believe?
Humanitarianism is NOT compatible with Statism
A person can not support actions carried out by a compulsory governments while remaining a humanitarian. You can only be one or the other, a statist, or a humanitarian; or neither, but not both. Violating people's self-ownership is antithetical with humanitarianism. You don't hit somebody to help them. The use of violence on innocent people is in complete contrast with humanitarianism, and it would be a performative contradiction to claim yourself as a humanitarian while advocating anything related to compulsory-government.
Compulsory taxation is extortion, by definition.
- Tax: a compulsory contribution to state revenue, levied by the government on workers' income and business profits or added to the cost of some goods, services, and transactions.
- Extortion: the practice of obtaining something, especially money, through force or threats. (extortion)
- Compulsory: required by law or by rule; obligatory; involving or exercising compulsion; coercive.
- Contribution: a gift or payment to a common fund or collection.
Statism is sustained through compulsory taxation.
Compulsory taxation is, by definition, extortion.
You can not be a humanitarian while supporting and or advocating for things to be funded through the mass extortion of human beings.(“tax”)
It's a performative contradiction to help people by violating their explicit non-consent.
Compulsory taxation is antithetical with Humanitarianism!
Morality can't be voted away!
Imperious central authorities often use “democracy” as way to justify violating the non-consent of the losing minority on behalf of the winning of the majority.
”A democracy is nothing more than mob rule, where fifty-one percent of the people may take away the rights of the other forty-nine.”
You can not be a humanitarian while supporting or advocating the idea that a majority can morally violate the non-consent of a minority. A majority can never give consent for an individual and or a minority. That is not how consent works, that is how gang rape works.
It's a performative contradiction to help people by violating their explicit non-consent.
Compulsory democracy is antithetical with humanitarianism!
Punishing people for “victimless crime” is criminal
Statism is often used as a proxy for people to impose their ideals onto society in the form of passing “laws” that punish people for performing certain actions that create no actual victims.
Victimless crime is, by definition, a legal offense to which all parties consent and no parties are injured.
”Tax evasion”, prostitution; public intoxication; gambling; traffic citations; and the use and distribution of drugs, are all victimless crimes!! If you support the use of coercion on people who engage in such activities, then you are NOT a humanitarian.
You can not be a humanitarian while supporting and or advocating for people to be punished for performing actions that were consensual and or resulted in no detriment to person or property.
“Victimless crimes” are antithetical with humanitarianism.
