Doesn't she want to help poor and oppressed people? That seems a pro-crist position.

Exactly, even if you disagree with her its obvious she is trying to do the right thing.

On the other hand, the people Christ and his followers most often condemned were the rich and powerful.

>Thiele claims that this strand of thinking, which attacks Christians for not doing enough for victims or the poor, is a continuation of communism and the social gospel, which also inherit some Christian characteristics while being anti-Christian at the same time.

That (caring for poor people) is anti-christ to the goals of Thiel, who wants to get rid of democracy and create city states governed by autocratic rulers.
