Why can't people give up Michael Jackson?

[Anonymous]

Bc he’s dead.

These charges came out years ago so this isn’t new news. Ppl chalked it up to MJ being a weirdo. The new documentary didn’t do anything bc most ppl already considered him a pedophile. Ppl still listen to Elvis, R Kelly, watch Harvey Weinstein produced movies and Woody Allen movies.

Out of curiosity, how did most black people feel about the fact that he choose to surround himself with white boys instead of black boys? Was that off-putting?

So you think the men in leaving never land are lying?

How do you justify why he slept in the same bed as little boys?

Yes, they're lying.

NP. Yep I think they are lying as well. Easy to accuse someone when they are dead and can't defend themselves.

So ALL of Michael Jackson's accusers are lying?

Michael Jackson paid a settlement of $23 million to one of his accusers family. You don't do that if you're innocent.

Extremely talented and a really really crappy childhood mixed with mental illness lends to some empathy. It really is very complicated.

He was abused as a child and not allowed to grow up and develop the normal prefrontal cortex to be able to say no. These are two things that most pedophiles have in common (not all people who have both become pedophiles though). I am also wondering if they gave him hormones to keep his voice from changing too much- that could have really messed with him. Mental illness is terrible and he had no one to hold him responsible for his actions. I don't think he ever really had a chance. It doesn't make his behaviors less horrible; it just gives people perspective to understanding the "why".

You're comparing a man molesting children at his home, to a rocker hitting on 16-17 year olds that went to his concert or some instagram models? Leto may very well be creepy and gross, but these aren't remotely the same thing.

Don't all pedophiles suffer some sort of mental illness? Should we show the same empathy and understanding towards all pedophiles?

Because he is dead and the money does not go to him.

I didn't say he was innocent. I said I don't believe his accusers. I think they are lying.

The accusers are lying but he's not innocent????

Do you really believe that there are that many people who are evil enough to completely destroy the reputation of a kind man who was good to them? He paid $23 million to one of these people! Not to mention he was obviously incredibly strange and seemed to have a very peculiar sort of sexuality. Get your head out of the sand, it's obvious he's guilty af.

Think for a second.

It goes to his estate, which has denied all wrongdoing and vilified the victims.

[Anonymous]

I don't necessarily agree with this line of thought, but I've heard people argue that it's just saving face right now to never play MJ again because this time we believe the accusations. As in , if you thought back in the day that he was probably a creeper, deep down, whether acquitted or whatever, then kept listening, well it's not any different than listening now. Sort of a hypocrisy argument.

Which i think is a stretch. But then again I can't say I thought he was totally framed and innocent back in the day, so I kept listening.

It goes to his kids who deserve it.

Head not in the sand. I.Don't.Believe.those.accusers.

I am a parent, and there is NO AMOUNT of money that I could be given to keep quiet, if I thought my children were being molested. No amount. None. So I don't believe people who got money to keep quiet and then after MJ dies, come out later to say they were molested after they took the money. These same accusers lied in court and lied for years. So why should I believe them now? THEY ARE SELF ADMITTED LIARS. And they are white. That makes a difference to me. Don't believe them. Love MJ music, listen to it everyday. Will continue.
