You don’t know me at all, but you claim to know exactly why I feel the way I feel about Yoko, and conclude with no evidence at all that I have grasped for some misogynistic fable. Your entire assumption that I have swallowed some narrative other than the truth is a LIE.
I have never disparaged her art, or her life as an artist, even though I do find her art to be shallow. Equally, my dislike of Yoko Ono has nothing to do with her being a woman. Linda Eastman has often been accused as being just as disruptive and destructive to the Beatles as Yoko, yet I don’t hold her in the same negative regard. My ENTIRE dislike of Yoko Ono stems from ONE thing: her extremely poor treatment of Julian Lennon, both during his John’s life, and especially after.
Her abhorrent treatment of him is nearly legendary. She cut off Julian from any inheritance, even though she is a billionaire, and he eventually had to sue her, and got a decent settlement. When he asked for some of his father’s letters, she forced him to buy them at auction like anyone else. She has been shitty to him for his entire life, referring to him as John’s “mistake” child, while Sean was the official Lennon offspring.
But go ahead and blame it on misogyny, even though nobody thinks the same of Linda, and not the fact that she has been a really awful person for as long as we’ve known her.
Implying that she somehow made a name solely on her own merits is not even disingenuous l, it’s blatant bullshit.

The first isn’t you, but for some reason you feel the need to continue that thread white-knighting for a blatantly false misogynistic narrative of Yoko Ono’s life as an artist. That wasn’t for you, but you inserted yourself into it. Well, if the shoe fits you so well, I guess you’re welcome to wear it.
I just explained very clearly what my personal issue is with Yoko, and you just dismiss it, and substitute your own unsupported narrative. Go fuck yourself.
