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.

He wasn’t the first person to get in trouble with the establishment by suggesting charity and kindness.
He wasn’t the last either. And we keep exiling or executing them all.
Even if you’re not a believer in miracles, the bible tells us that this is not a new problem; The public and established authorities have been disregarding the impoverished, the foreigner, the widow and orphan since time immemorial, that civilization gets subverted time and time again to preserve old power structures that no longer serve the community (and suffer because they need a healthy community to survive)

What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun.

He went into the bank and started flipping tables, so he got the death penalty.

Yeah, no, that’s not what they crucified him for.

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you’re chewing on life’s gristle
Don’t grumble, give a whistle
And this’ll help things turn out for the best
