“I hate words that are the same, but are pronounced differently like read and read, live and live, taxation and theft”

“I hate words that are the same, but are pronounced differently like read and read, live and live, taxation and theft” is a jocular saying that has been printed on many images.
 
“I HATE WORDS THAT ARE THE SAME BUT ARE PRONOUNCED DIFFERENTLY, LIKE: READ AND READ, LIVE AND LIVE, TAXATION AND THEFT” (shown on an image) was posted on Facebook by Zack Love on November 2, 2018. Some versions have “live and live” before “read and read.
