You really can't understand how someone can be a fan? When I think of
The Beatles, Yoko is not part of the equation... well, not usually,
anyway. She really doesn't stand out for me in any way... well, other
than the fact that she was part of May's life and that she's often the
main topic on this newsgroup. My thoughts are basically that she was
John's 2nd wife... she's offbeat... avant-garde... she sings funny...
stuff happened. That's about it for me.

I always wondered what your goal is here in trying to convince others
that Yoko is so evil. What is it that you want them to feel or to
do? From what you wrote, above, it sounds as if you don't want them
to be silent about it. But is that all you want, or is it something
more? And even if they're vocal about it, what will that accomplish?
In trying to understand this, I can say that, for myself, it was
irritating to read gushing praise for Mrs. Harrison, knowing the
whacky and cruel things that she did which was well-hidden from the
general public. However, they were mostly just brief statements of
mine here, borne out of momentary bursts of frustration when I'd
sometimes read a post from somebody who would say how classy and
wonderful she is, deceived and unaware of many of the facts, some of
which are documented. But I wasn't on a mission to be the one to
expose her or to get the newsgroup or the public to turn on her. My
feeling is that, spiritually, what she does is ultimately between her
and her God, and life plays out just as it should.
And so I feel the same regarding Yoko. Whatever it is that happened,
she will someday have to face whatever it is that she did... and,
again, life played out just as it should. Her personal thought
process, her deeds, and her relationship with John is not necessarily
for outsiders to comprehend or to judge. A lot of it was made public,
however, and you can react to it, but you can't expect others to feel
what you do, or with the same intensity. You have a reason for so
strongly feeling the way you do, and many of us here don't understand
it. And that's okay since you may not fully understand it, yourself.
But it's your thing, not ours. After years of talking about her here,
not much has changed in the way of swaying a lot of posters over to
your point of view. So why go on? And why would the opinion of
others even matter so much to you? What are you looking for them to
do with the information that you present? Really, I'm just curious,
fattuchus. No disrespect intended here.
