I am still confused by how anyone can deny that dina dimalchuta is an
obligation at least in many cases
The obligation to pay taxes (again at least some kinds of taxes) is
taken for granted under DDD.
The exact taxes that are included is a debate amongst rishonim
depending on the source of DDD.
Thus, paying taxes to a secular government is a religious obligation
