It’s also funny that a tax meant to increase gas prices and make it easier for alternatives to be cost effective is used in an argument to not do anything and just rely on Russian gas.

Though it would be good/required if that tax directly goes to the country paying it and to efforts to switch from gas. That’s sort of how the Netherlands subsidises the efforts, they made electricity and gas more expensive and used part of that to subsidize solar panels, various business projects, etc.
