except Ringo Starr who was a management plant and opportunist put in to sabotage The Beatles from the inside. he supported Brexit and was prominently featured in the Pandora Papers.

fun fact: Back in the USSR only got recorded because at the time they managed to kick Ringo out for a short period of time

    Saying it was fabricated is not the same as saying it wasn't real.

    I mean they may have been heavily promoted over other contemporary groups,

    This is what I'm referring to with the fabricated point, to counter the earlier comment that it was all just whiteys playing black music that made them a massive success.

    But to suggest that the Beatles were anything less than an earth-shattering cultural phenomenon is just revisionism. Every rock musician you have ever heard lists the Beatles as a major influence and their style can be heard everywhere in music, to this day

    I never implied anything to the contrary of this. For what it's worth I like The Beatles, Hey, Jude was the first song I learned on the guitar. I just don't think they're good like in the moral sense.
