care to elaborate? I think he had some ideas that would also fit into a Communist ideology, but mostly he was advocating for freedom, love , kindness and taking personal responsibility for ones actions.

You are having the Sermon on the Mount in mind, am I right ?
Jesus's temptation in the desert is even more substantial in supporting an anarchistic soul of early Christianity.

Matthew 4:8-10
8 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. 9 “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”
10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’”

Out of that one could conclude that all kingdoms and governments (not the Kingdom pf God of course) are ruled by Satan, otherwise Satan would not be able to regulate them.

There is nothing wrong to teach people helping each other and educate them to act against an organized oppressor. No blunt revolution could have had any chance of any positive outcome. I agree that most of the content of the New Testament has Communist tendencies combined with extolments of obedience in face of authorities. It's content was created by writers and and people with political ambitions. We do not know to what extend the genuinely story was deformed for their purposes.
