Summary

This quote highlights the belief that forcing someone to financially support the spread of ideas they oppose is both unethical and oppressive. It argues that it is morally wrong to compel an individual to contribute money towards the promotion of opinions or beliefs that they strongly disagree with and find repulsive.
