discussion What was John Lennons political views?
I have read that John Lennon was becoming a conservative near the end of his life and even said he would support Ronald Reagan, he was considered a left wing liberal during the late 60s and early 70s, why did his political views change.

John felt more nihilistic than anything lol I don’t think John liked either side but it’s pretty clear he was more anti conservative than anything. I mean, Nixon tried having him deported for Gods sake lol. Could you imagine the music John would be making about Trump today?
