Angel King
Beatles' "Aryan" music removed any trace of black music from rock and roll. It replaced syncopated African rhythm with linear Western melody, and lusty negro attitudes with cute white-kid smiles.
Brayden Parker
the Beatles are LITERALLY counter-revolutionary
Jacob Nelson
...
Juan Jenkins
i still dont get why adorno was against jazz
Noah Wilson
the song was about tax increases on the rich by the labor government. Literally porky music.
Their best music was always the apolitical stuff, kinda the opposite of most 60s music.
Evan Turner
It's popular/commercially successful = it's bad.
Anti-jazz was the anti-rick and morty of its era, let's say.
Carson Turner
they literally have zero good songs apart from a few semi-decent solo songs by harrison
Benjamin Thompson
t. contrarian
Noah Long
To be fair, John Lennon did backtrack on that and go through a Maoist phase.

Ayden Hall

Blake Garcia

Still, John Lennon was kind of a spaz.
Anthony Ross

Daniel Reed

Kayden Gonzalez

Jason Moore
Revolution 9 tho
Wyatt Anderson
I enjoy The Beatles, as well as each of their solo music, but that doesn't mean that they didn't or don't have crap views. Ringo is a right-libertarian who supports Brexit. Paul is a liberal Zionist. John was a liberal pretending to be a radical leftist for the sake of being cool, even though he was a millionaire. George was an idealistic hippie, who met with Henry Kissinger (the same guy who green lighted and backed the people who perpetrated the Bangladesh genocide) a couple times despite doing a concert to raise funds for Bengali refugees.
Joshua Watson
So most of us did pal
Daniel Bennett
nobody cares
Christian Myers
THE BEATLES A SHIT
Adrian Wilson
revolution 1 > revolution
Jacob Gutierrez
hmm a satirical song about taxation
i sleep
I KILL
pretty kulak tier though, although i'm too tired to remember the nature of the british tax system in the 1960s off by heart nonetheless it was good and everyone should have just kept quiet and paid up. (fun fact of similar vintage: the Institute for Fiscal Studies think tank exists because some Tories got obscenely angry at the creation of a capital gains tax and corporation tax.)
of all the beatles i like harold wilson's solo work the most.
