If anything, God is a populist.

Christians are to differentiate themselves from the world (others, different from then, unsaved), put a wall around themselves, come out from among them, and preach/teach them into heaven, salvation

None of which was ever really questioned nor hated (on as mass a scale as witnesed today) until more recent times.

We're supposed to love our enemies (not kiss them), but make the academic, intellectual decision to accept them as God's creation but not necesarilly His children.

I disagree. God is a CAPITALIST. There are more references to MONEY in the Bible than anything else including LOVE and FORGIVENESS.

There are more than 1,500 references to wealth and money in the Bible, which is more than double anything else including Love and Forgiveness.

By the way, how else do we know that God is a CAPITALIST? We need to look no further than his Son, Jesus Christ who admonished us to teach men to fish, rather than simply feeding them for a day.
