Didn't Lennon once give the 'Heil Hitler' salute to a sea of screaming fans when the band made a balcony appearance?

If he did, he was being "funny."

Lennon was communist, not fascist. Complete opposite ends of the spectrum.

And I will NOT tolerate people telling me Lennon wasn't communist, listen to freaking "Imagine," he practically says it.

In praxis I would say they are about the same

Some of my favourite Lennon quotes:

Our society is run by insane people for insane objectives. I think we're being run by maniacs for maniacal ends and I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it.

Possession isn't nine-tenths of the law. It's nine-tenths of the problem.

Reality leaves a lot to the imagination.

We've got this gift of love, but love is like a precious plant. You can't just accept it and leave it in the cupboard or just think it's going to get on by itself. You've got to keep watering it. You've got to really look after it and nurture it.

Everybody loves you when you're six foot in the ground.

And yes, John was one of my heros
