Dumb people interpret stuff like this to mean they can be an asshole and its everyone else's problem.

I prefer "It's a dangerous thing to mistake speaking without thought for speaking the truth” by the philosopher Benoit Blanc

Didn't Lennon consistently abuse his wife and kids? I remember my teacher telling me that in school. Pointed out the irony during his song "Imagine".

His infidelity was also both brazen and cruel, to the point that it’s hard not to believe his goal wasn’t to humiliate his first wife.

Extremely talented musician, but not someone you want to take advice from outside the realm of music.

And 2nd wife. Allegedly Yoko found out he had sex with another woman so she had him go to LA with an assistant, who he had an affair with. The assistant said Yoko picked her so she could control the relationship, Lennon’s friend said that wasn’t the case & that John cheated on the assistant too.
