This song is a kind of spiritual snobbery that makes people think they can be happy without money. He by the way had much money. And his wife is the most creepy.The Imagine is the best self-contradiction that has been conceived so far; it is a sort of rape and perversion of logic. But the extravagant pride of man has managed to entangle itself profoundly and frightfully with just this nonsense. The desire for “freedom of the will” in the superlative metaphysical sense, which still holds sway, unfortunately, in the minds of the half-educated; the desire to bear the entire and ultimate responsibility for one’s actions oneself, and to absolve God, the world, ancestors, chance, and society involves nothing less than to be precisely this song and, with more than Hitler’s audacity, to pull oneself up into existence by the hair, out of the swamps of nothingness. https://youtube/watch?v=DVg2EJvvlF8
