Communist/socialist, no, not really. He never preached universal wealth distribution; he even talked about how those who are rich must be good stewards of what they have been given, not that they must necessarily give away everything as a prerequisite to religious obedience.
The mistake people make is trying to ascribe modern ideologies to a man who lived and taught 2000 years ago. My favorite though is when they try to use JC to rationalize their views on absolute gun ownership. Uh no. I wouldn’t say that JC’s teachings promote my gun policies either for what it’s worth.
