No seriously Ben Shapiro once  did a whole rant going lyric by lyric  bashing the original song . Claiming it was "unrealistic "  Dodgy

It’s a very simple song, and most of these celebrities are fucking it up. No unity of tempo, the key changes with damn near every new voice, some of them can barely keep to the 12-tone scale (and bizarrely, Professional singer Norah Jones is one of the biggest offenders in this regard.) Maybe if they had someone make a backing track, it might have created enough discipline to help keep the song fairly decent.

There’s also the standard problems people have been seeing since people noticed it was a multi-millionaire who talked about imagining no possessions, but, frankly, listening to Ben Shapiro play the devil’s advocate and failing miserably really helps put Lennon’s original message into perspective.



Considering in imagination no one would need possessions .There contradictory millionaire imagining ideal world were there is none .

That's mindset that says you can't criticize capitalism unless you live cave in the woods somewhere .
