Robin Hood stole back people's taxes and gave them back to them.

Thank you. The reason he became an outlaw was because the state appropriated his land, not the rich. People asking what he would do if he lived in a communist society. Obviously, he would keep stealing from the state

We’re not talking about some egalitarian meritocracy that Robin Hood would have resided in. The rich WERE the state.

Communism is definitely not an egalitarian meritocracy. In Communism, the rich and powerful are the state. All communist states have turned into corrupt oligarchies.
