  • That's not a shitpost, that's essentially the gospels.

    • IDK, he didn’t call for a violent revolution to overthrow the rule of the Pharisees or the Romans, nor did he tell people to eat the rich or that they’d stolen their wealth. He didn’t even advocate for free healthcare or government welfare programs because he could supply these things by magic, and he was a staunch believer in taking personal responsibility.

      I’d say he was a moderate leftist at best. Maybe even a centrist.

      • Government welfare programs are centrist, they were established in my country by a left-right alliance after the WWII… Jesus advocated something more radical : if you have something that you don't need, it's not yours anymore, it's something you have to give to people who need what you have. It's basically the end of private property, and not only of the means of production.

        But no, he was not violent, that's true. Is violence a leftist marker? I don't think so.
