It's just another example how different people are. We are all musicians, you'd think we'd see pretty much eye to eye. See, you hate it and I cannot fathom how one cannot find humor in that.
It's satire, but it's also reality. We have learned that much have history has been badly distorted. Facts get all screwed up. That piece has Scotty Pippin, NBA player, as a Beatle. How stupid is that? To some, that is humorous.
It's kind of like the movie, "Blazing Saddles" by Mel Brooks. Which I found funny but I'm sure some people hated. It's just goofy, silly, sarcastic humor to the extreme. Like the writers are in their writing room seeing how far out can they go with the bit.
Point is, it's another example of why some people love a certain song or an artist and others don't.
