It doesn’t make sense for landless people to support the state

If you are poor and don’t like the landlord class then don’t pay for their property to be defended by the police.

One of the main functions of the police is to protect the landlords. By paying taxes to the government we maintain existing support for the rentier class, which often relies upon the state. It makes sense for (landless) people to withdraw their support from a system which does not provide them with sufficient property rights.
