The intellectually honest thing to do is limit inheritability of property.
you don’t go back to the dawn of civilization. By limiting or eliminating the inheritability of property, you put all claims on equal footing: none.

I'm following and reading. The quote you posted, out of context by the way, appears to be within the confines of a discussion about taxes, finance and fiscal policy. I've had and seen many respectful debates about it.
Coming out of the blue with "I think the government should take all your money when you die because you are hoarding it" is aggressive and inappropriate. But sharing that opinion within the confines of a discussion about wealth inequality or social program shortfalls or fiscal policy seems just fine.
