I believe Saifedean frames it in these terms: Essentially, when you observe how much harsher the sanctions are for threatening the State compared to those for individuals threatening each other, you realize that their claim of wielding "legitimate violence" is actually a means to protect themselves from resistance to their organized theft, rather than to safeguard citizens.

This is particularly true in the predominantly socialist countries of Western Europe. Here, people occupying empty houses (at least in France) are often justified by law, because "they need a roof." Meanwhile, dangerous criminals, rapists, and murderers are released quickly and roam the streets freely. On the other hand, there are laws that prohibit and penalize drawing parallels between taxes and theft. Encouraging tax evasion, money laundering, and tax fraud are punished more severely than crimes committed by pedophiles and murderers etc....
