@DanielPriestley I think we need to stop defining John Lennon by one stupid song.

John Lennon wrote a beautiful song about socialism.
“Imagine no possessions” he told us.
He also:
– helped write his band’s anti-tax anthem, Taxman
– incorporated his IP holdings
– moved to a lower-tax country
– fiercely protected his royalties
- drove two Rolls Royce’s and had multiple luxury homes.
– made sure even the royalty cheques for Imagine were kept safe for his estate so his family would remain wealthy in perpetuity.
If he believed it, he’d have lived it. The trouble with socialism is that even the people who love the idea won’t run the experiment on themselves.
John Lennon writing Imagine while owning two Rolls Royce Phantoms and later having a law suit to protect his royalties tells you all you need to know about socialism in practice.
It doesn’t work outside of the imagination.

@jrzygrl719 @DanielPriestley how so?
elaborate?
they crossed many social norms and standards of the time, speaking out against 'nam, etc.
who were their puppetmasters?

@DanielPriestley @asqueroso_mono Now listen to Lennon’s Revolution. You will be surprised.
English
@DanielPriestley He sang “Back in the USSR” praising a communist dictatorship he would never live in.
English
@ButchJeffries54 @DanielPriestley @Adventuring_RE he also died as a multi-millionaire.
effin idiot hippies.
(i say that with conviction, as i WAS one).
English
@DanielPriestley @Adventuring_RE Alvin Lee wrote a song with the lyrics “Tax the rich, feed the poor/‘Til there are no rich no more”. He didn’t say how you feed the poor after that.
English
@MaroonSquatch @DanielPriestley john DID contribute ideas, words, and lines to TAXMAN.
at the time, george was just starting as a songwriter.
English
@DanielPriestley He didn’t co-write Taxman but that doesn’t change your point. “Imagine” is one of the most overrated, ridiculous songs ever created. Just pure pie in the sky, socialist garbage.
English
@DanielPriestley He also co-wrote I am the Walrus. Despite not being a Walrus at all.
English
@GJobbing41782 @DanielPriestley incorrect.
lennon himself told which specific words and lines he contributed to george's TAXMAN.
do better.
English
@DanielPriestley “helped write his band’s anti-tax anthem, Taxman”
No. He didn’t.
That was a George Harrison composition with contributions from Paul McCartney (the baseline, the guitar solo).
If you start with a lie, then you aren’t making a great point.
English
@DanielPriestley He also wrote "but if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao you ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow".
English
@FormerlyWoke @DanielPriestley “don't you know that you can count me out (IN)”
English
"You say you want a revolution"...
..."But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out?"
"You say you got a real solution
Well, you know We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know We're all doin' what we can"
"But if you go carryin' pictures of Chairman Mao
You ain't gonna make it with anyone anyhow"
English
@DanielPriestley Imagine if the Beatles didn't breakup after only seven years. What caused their breakup? They say Lennon was a dreamer, but he couldn't live as one.
English
@DanielPriestley I am not a John Lennon fan. But all of these celebs are the same, it's not just him.
Furthermore, 'Taxman' is so strongly George Harrison's song that it's kind of a humorous to point out that John helped write a line or two. British taxes at the time were 90%.

White House post at 2:25pm 2:25 = 14:25. Drop 1425: “Given we have now undeniably [on purpose] verified ourselves to be an inside source, expect the MSM [Clown Army] to attack in full cooperation w/ foreign and domestic assets. Be prepared.” Prolly a coincidence. 😂

Is Trump about to FORCE the media to ask the ultimate question?
Reminds me of this Q drop:

We are waiting for a reporter to ask the ultimate question.
What are they waiting for?
They can end this at any time simply by asking POTUS, right?
We may have to ‘force’ this one.

Is the world about to find out that Trump has been coordinating with Q from the beginning of the movement and that he is actually Q+ on the boards?
Everything coming full circle.
