Jesus was a  liberal - he believed in individual autonomy, equality in the eyes of the law, the need for one to actively seek salvation rather than getting it as virtue (clearly un-socialist), and compassion for your fellow citizens. He also fought against the political establishment who owned and controlled everything from information to production. Every time I hear or read someone say Jesus was socialist, I shudder that people do not understand what socialism even is, and clamor for socialism in the same sentence they complain about the government. Albert Einstein may have claimed to be a socialist, but he also fled the only socialist country he ever lived in. Socialism = full government control of production and capital. Everything else is negotiable (such as Nazi racism). Liberalism = autonomy, free markets, rule of law; else negotiable. 99% of conservatives are still liberals in the broader definition of the word (though DT threatens that). Socialism ≠ social justice.
