War Tax Resistance

War tax resistance is the refusal to pay certain taxes that fund military activities and wars. People choose this stance to oppose violence and promote peace, believing government finances shouldn’t support war efforts. Instead of paying these taxes, resisters may redirect funds, claim legal exemptions, or refuse to pay altogether. This nonviolent protest aims to challenge government priorities and raise awareness about the costs of war. While it can lead to legal consequences, many see it as a moral stand rooted in their commitment to peace and anti-militarism.
