Well yes.
But you're coming from a point into attacking me for embracing Socialism
Being a bully about it is not going to make me feel guilty.
I can say the same thing about Capitalist, the United States and countless others.

Jesus was not a socialist! He was a Christian with Christian values in giving and helping the poor. Socialism is the government taking your money and spending, giving to who they see fit.
Jesus if alive and walking today on earth would not need the government to take his money to give to other. Jesus today would give directly to the poor and cut out government all together. You don’t need the government to help other people and by god I don’t want the government taking my hard earned money and giving it to other. I should have the right to decide whether or not I want to give my money to the poor or needy without giving it to the government first.
Jesus was not a socialist, he did not force you to give him money so he can give your money to others!
jesus was not christian, hahaha
it wasnt until in acts that paul and barnabas coined the term christian
40 years after the dude was murdered
just saying, not defending the guy

But you are trying to stereotype a group of wrongdoers as the set principle of all Socialists.
How about the people who did not use Socialism as a propaganda tool for power? How about the Socialists of the Nordic and other Western countries who were not tyrants?

It was all about control at all means necessary and using the guise of proletariat revolution as a cover up for their planned concentration of wealth in the form of the state using the state as a mechanism for creating capital flows which would be directed straight to the leaders of said state.

Jesus was in fact a socialist, anyone attempting to argue otherwise is downright full of ignorance. He did nothing but preach for mankind to give and help their fellow man and to share with them as if they were their own kin.
Care to even say otherwise? ROFL
Stop thinking like tools.

what I got back from his discussion about the Bourgeois was his opposition to their oppression, he labeled them the capitalist class. He never said they were all evil nor did he call for their death, what he stated was that their power should be stripped from them and handed to the workers.
