I've never heard of the term "transferism", it's quite a peculiar thing.
I can't not see all of the progressive taxes, heck, even percentage taxes, as manifestations of the same thing: basically, higher earners provide more money into the shared pool for everybody to use (I am ignoring all the tax loopholes used by richer folks for the sake of discussion).
Sure, I don't think compensation between jobs should differ that much, but we are basically going the roundabout way in trying to equalize them.
As such, it seems that everything (like percentage taxes vs "fixed fee") is "transferism" according to the quote you give, thus the value of the terminology is somewhat diminished.
