Their ethics are inconsistent if they argue forced redistribution is in some way moral. But you misunderstand what they're doing. They aren't arguing from morality nor are they reasoning. They are using rhetoric. It's a mistake to think you can argue against their rhetoric with logical reasoning. You have to use rhetoric yourself.

Most people who push the welfare agenda in a state like the US don't care about humanity as a whole. They are ignorant of welfare's effects, want the gibsmedats, or simply spout the my feels rhetoric to virtue signal.
