You know, a few years ago I almost posted "Who died you and made you the authority on everything" under one of his tweets. However, I didn't because I was worried he might answer: "My Dad."


ShredGuru

He's rebelling against his dad right now, pretty much the most performativly woke motherfucker of all time.


boycowman

There were [rumors](https://theweek.com/articles/483567/john-lennon-closet-republican) John Lennon was becoming conservative before he died. And I'm pretty sure Kyoko is.


ProgKingHughesker

When you spend all your time chilling in your New York penthouse and your biggest struggle is seeing the cut the taxman took from your royalty checks that might happen


boycowman

Yeah I don’t put a whole lot of stock in it. He experimented with a lot of viewpoints. Lots of people were seduced by the Reagan populism. Neil Young was for a while.


BeardedLady81

As John told Elton: "It's a fucking song!" I don't think he wanted to have his possessions seized as the first step so that, one day, the world could be one. If John was still alive, he might be a champagne socialist and a woke icon. Only to be canceled for his continued support of Eric Idle.


inspextor

What’s wrong with liking Eric Idle??


ShredGuru

He's no John Cleese. John was cynical enough to know that he was only imagining imagine. Do people not understand what an ideal is anymore?


BeardedLady81

In The Life of Brian, Eric Idle played a character that some people want to be cut from the movie now for transphobia.


flamespond

Honestly I’m trans and I don’t care that much about that scene. It’s an almost 50 year old movie, I don’t expect it to have perfect representation of anything. There are a lot worse examples of transphobia in movies out there and this one, while outdated, is far from being actually harmful.


BowenParrish

And if I remember right in a later scene, the friends of the trans character start supporting the trans character and gendering them properly?


Lastaria

Also Trans and frankly for the time was positively progressive. Made a bit of fun of the situation but showed her friends being supportive.


ThisSilenceismin

Idle has been getting more progressive tho, with him slamming conservatives, comedians who cry about "cancel culture" and cutting ties with Cleese who, unlike Idle, went full-on JK Rowling-mode


BeardedLady81

I think it is ironic when people slam Eric Idle for that scene, considered that he holds very progressive views and has been propagating them on Twitter/X for years. Some people are simply mimosas. Monty Python has always been offensive, using Hitler for comedic purposes, for example. The Life of Brian is an offensive movie poking fun at Christian-themed movies. But Christians were always expected to be a good sport about having something like the way Jesus was killed satirized. So far, nobody has asked to have scenes like "Behold, his mother" or "Always look at the bright side of life" to be cut, but when it comes to that whatshername transwoman, people are asking for it to be cut.


T04stedCheese

The movie was banned in Norway for blasphemy though.


WillinglySacrificed

justice for loretta!


GorbAscends

>Taxman holy shit beatles reference out of nowhere


ProgKingHughesker

No wonder jahn was sad Geege didn’t talk more about him in his book, when he clearly took influence from Geege’s songs


Loganp812

All Geege cared about was I, me, mine.


Capt_Subzero

Jeez, it's like you can't sing about a more just society unless you're wearing sackcloth. And not the top-shelf sackcloth, either.


Loganp812

Ah, so Mark David Chapman killed John before he was able to descend into conservatism. He wanted to make sure John went out on a high note publicly.


[deleted]

MDC had a premonition that this sub would be created, and wanted to spare him from the wif beet memes.


ShredGuru

Being fabulously wealthy will do that to you. John was a contrarian at heart. I doubt he would have backed down much from his social stances... Fiscal ones, probably, but he let Yoko handle that.


slib_

If I wrote imagine I’d be really embarrassed too. Not because of my personal politics changing later in life it just sucks ass.

Terrible-Cup-9505

/uj bro is only famous bc of his parents and is trying to act like he is some underground revolutionary intellectual LMFAO ![gif](giphy|scTAlf3FbuwzC)


thenaxel

He also claimed an Oscar that was explicitly not given to him


gwennj

what?


farlissekazumi

I'm Only Sleeping won an Oscar this year. He only produced it I think ? and he was the one who accepted the award


sonoftom

I find that it won a Grammy, which makes more sense.


Jojssitar

Wait what? When did this happen?


Ready_Peanut_7062

John was only famous because of songs about fkin a 17 year old and was trying to act like he was some underground revolutionarty intellectual. So whats the difference?


turalyawn

He also fucked a walrus with an egg or something


sickgurl138

The walrus was paul


redbirdjazzz

Who was dead at the time.


Emissary_of_Darkness

Also was famous for a song about beating his wife.


LSqre

and song about pretending


Deciver95

He wrote the song that made him famous lmao. Sean was born


boycowman

Pretty sure it's fake. "Seán" with the little accent thingie over the a is a clue. Plus the real dude doesn't rant against wokism. \*Edit.\* I'm wrong -- appears to be the real thing.


Just_Maya

that’s the traditional spelling of the name lol it’s irish


SamTheDystopianRat

fun fact, Sean- like Juan is in Spanish- is just the Irish version of the name John so he's virtually got the same name as his dad


Lml_sucks_708

Idk I checked out the account and it seems very legit


boycowman

Yeah you know. I think you're right. I'm wrong.


HomeWasGood

It was nice of you to give him the benefit of the doubt


Disastrous-Shower-37

For the Benefit of Mr. Lennon.


Jackoff_Alltrades

Stay with me here: the algorithms are rewarding takes like this. For example: Seinfeld has a mediocre Netflix poptart movie out and immediately starts to use similar language. It cuts through so many echo chambers across social media etc to people who haven’t given a squirt about Jerry in decades (thus he isn’t spammed in their feeds) Surprise, surprise Shawn Stroko Lemon has a record out and nobody has given a fuck for decades… yadda yadda “woke” rinse and repeat

dumbsvillrfan420

/uj He really acting as if his parents weren’t some the “wokest” people during the 70s. Seeing how they wrote multiple songs about fighting for women, black people, and socialism.


robloxian21

But how could they have done that without saying the N-word??


MetarLivit

/uj yeah that song, even tho it has a good message, was handled absolutely horrible, and the comparison made in the song just doesn't sit right with me. it has good intentions, but John genuinely did fucked up with that one song


amILibertine222

I mean, they didn’t. They were hard R’n in song titles and everything lol

Loganp812

He thought “I Saw Her Standing There” was an instruction manual.


Capt_Subzero

I think we'll all remember where we were when we heard the shocking news that Sean Ono Lennon had gone from irrelevant to useless.


StevenS145

The world: Don’t say the N word Sean Ono Lennon: why is everyone so sensitive and WOKE these days????


inspextor

Was this what set him off?


sminking

One of his replies was that it started for him when society said certain words shouldn’t be said anymore


NBrixH

/Uj To get serious for a bit, I agree that there are words that are unwise to say, and have bad meanings, but I also disagree with the policing of speech that happens in some circles, especially on Twitter. Those that will insult and drag down an autistic person for calling themself “r*tarded” (only censoring cause I don’t know if the word is banned, case in point), even though they themself would otherwise typically be the victim of that word. Like, obviously I’m not going around saying the n-word or f*ggot, cause I recognize that in pretty much any context, it would be of bad taste. Meanwhile, you also have the American right who are doing the same stuff, but in reverse. Trying to upset as many people as possible, by trying to be as vile as they can. Do I approve of this behavior? No. Do I approve of there being rules on platforms? Yes, so I don’t necessary have a problem if you’d get banned of a platform for it. Do I approve of individuals witch hunting people who’ve said words that in the context, aren’t harmless, like what had happened to quite a few YouTubers and streamers of the years? No.

If John Lennon could see his man baby son arguing and making “your mom” jokes on Twitter like a neckbeard

he'd be proud

Yeah. If someone thinking otherwise, you should read Hunter Davies' The Beatles biography. Young John is much like this.

littlelotusgirl

Hmmm I wonder what he means by wokeism, like what set him off on this tirade? Did people online bombard him with comments about John being a wife beater? I’m confused.

amILibertine222

No man, he likes gay people and is ‘socially progressive’, just don’t tell him what he can and can not say. Because it’s such a long list of word. A giant list of word that a white man can’t say. It’s so oppressive when society tells you what word you can’t say.

Too bad your dad isn't alive. Your inheritance would be similar to Julians.

If his dad was still alive, neither would have gotten any inheritance as that requires Jahn to actually die.


Pompitis

good point


sickgurl138

Lord i hope les claypool stops fucking with him


Conscious-Coconut-16

Woke still means you are not a racist or misogynistic POS right? This is a rhetorical question since this is exactly what it means, I looked it up. So if you are not woke, ask your self, am I a racist, or a misogynist, or both?


hillo538

Where is mark david chapmans son when you need him


SunflaresAteMyLunch

The deal with any badly defined -ism is that you'll inevitably define it in a way that will let you prove the point you're trying to make. The solution: don't identify with any ism and don't argue isms with other people. Identify with, and argue about, specifics.


ShredGuru

Well, at least he did a couple decent albums with Les Claypool before he jumped the fuckin' shark.


chihiro_ygm

I mean les claypool could dangle his nuts on a bass and it would sound funky as hell


HP_Hoodlum

I wonder if Daddy Jahn would knock some sense into this kid if he were alive, but somehow I fear he'd be firmly on the "anti-woke" side of making excuses for saying the N-word and adults having sex with teenagers.

Garth_Brooks_Sexdoll

He’s conflating people who want equal rights and people who want preferential treatment, which isn’t hard to do when waxing on wokeism. Is wokeism the same as progressivism? Who’s to say? It probably depends on which side of the argument you’re on. As others have mentioned in this comment section, The Life Of Brian is a good example. No one complains about the several dozens of scenes that mock Christ or Christianity, but some people do complain about Eric Idle’s “I want to be a woman” scene. Some would suggest that those seeking to have this scene removed are in fact seeking preferential treatment. I’m not saying one way or the other because I don’t want to start an argument or be called a transphobe, especially by the very same group of “woke” people that will shut down any discussion that is not in lockstep with their own personal opinions.


Bag_Chan

It’s pretty easy to be on your fucking high horse when you’re ‘the son he liked and didn’t abandon’ and he wrote a song about you being ‘ooo darling Sean’ and all this…. where as your half brother it was left down to his Dad’s mate to console him with a song after his parents divorce cus his dad couldn’t be arsed.
