As much as American Christians would like to deny it, Jesus was indeed a socialist. This is why his teachings can be safely ignored.
If Jesus was advocating for the workers' democratic control of the means of production about two thousand years (rounding up) before any such thing existed, he must be God indeed.
“Democratic Control” exists in “primitive communism” in many societies over many periods. It exists or exists in “practice” among co-ops and informal small-scale teamwork in our society too.
“Workers” while at this time period not wholly made up of “Proletarians” taking wages, they “existed” in the forceful institution of Slavery.
Jesus can not be called a “(proto-)socialist“ in any meaningful sense as he did not advocate for common ownership of things among all of humanity or the control of the means of production. He did not call for the end of slavery. He did not call for us to stand side together as “equals”, only to the Christian converts did he prescribe anything resembling “fair treatment”. His worldview was idealist and not based on scientific observation and testing.
