It's incredibly popular to hate on Lennon when so so many other people who far worse are idolized. And The Beatles are important for their music. It doesn't necessarily matter what they did as people when it comes to their historical significance. Even so, are you aware of him having a terrible childhood? In a world where people's issues are frequently forgiven because of childhood issues, why is he singled out? I'm not saying you have to idolize him or even like him, but it seems fairly unfair to dislike a person's work because of what they did outside of it.

As for the overrated music argument, that's a matter of opinion and taste. Still, their music was revolutionary in a technical way, and even if you dislike it from an enjoyment standpoint, it should still be recognized for the important developments it caused.
