He also hung out with sinners, poor, and diseased people pretty much exclusively

I think that's more retconning tbh. I'm not knocking Jesus. I know this all seems very critical, but I think we probably would have gotten along great. I also think most modern Christians would absolutely hate him. But from reading about of his life I think these things are likely true, if you apply a critical eye and assume man is basically essentially unchanged and thinks and acts similarly.
