He did not tell people to follow those rules. On the contrary, he did something unlawful on sabbath and we can eat anything we want.
The only rules he gave were about loving humans and god
This is your convenient interpretation. Most people nowadays reduce Jesus just enough to make him compatible with their own lifestyle. How nice how that works out.
And I suppose slavery qualifies as "loving humans"? Hmmm....

And do you think jesus was a monster for having a passover feast with goat?

No. Sucks to be the goat, but if he didn't sadistically torture it to death before, I wouldn't call him a monster. But that's if I take him as an ordinary human. If he is son of God or even God, he is a monster, but not only for killing a goat, but for all the rest.

I'm not a fan of kosher slaughtering practices though.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
