"The Girl is Mine" is a song I avoid. It's an OK song, but I don't go out of my way to listen to it... I did that with Billie Jean, I thought of that song as overrated. But after listening to it recently, I realize how amazing it is. I resented because it is one of his most popular songs, but then again, it's popular for a reason, because it's good, at least in my opinion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wagszilla 2,921 Posted January 26 I'm anxious to see Leaving Neverland. It'll probably taint all of Michael's music for me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
action 1,622 Posted January 26 this "leaving neverland" documentary, which I haven't seen, is a fine example of sensationalism and witch hunting (even though, the witch has long passed away). his children and family, who haven't committed any crime, have yet to endure another round of humiliation and insinuations. I guess, this is the world we live in today. society needs to find fresh outcry material. movie stars, artists, politicians, the church, the government,....Everything and everyone needs to be attacked and judged. there is a total and absolute lack of respect, of anything. having respect for anything, in and of itself has become suspicious. It's the product of the modern SJW culture and their attacks on everything they dispise. enjoy it if you like such witch hunting. just hope you won't be the goal of an attack yourself. as in an SJW culture, even the SJW's themselves aren't immune to attacks and suspicion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rock the Cock 16 Posted January 27 13 hours ago, action said: this "leaving neverland" documentary, which I haven't seen, is a fine example of sensationalism and witch hunting (even though, the witch has long passed away). So... you haven't seen this film, but you're still able to say it's a "fine example of sensationalism"? How the fuck can you say that? I'm a bit of an MJ fan. But I've always felt he was more than sus' about him - although I've never rushed to judgement, given I don't and can't know the facts. But critiquing a film, which you admit you haven't seen, is very Tipper Gore/Mary Whitehouse. Even if it had 99% proof of his child abuse, would you still believe his denials and call this film (and all the allegations) "sensationalism"? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OmarBradley 1,183 Posted January 27 I haven't seen the new doc nor am I really too familiar with all of the allegations, court proceedings, etc.. I'm not too familiar with his music either. I randomly Googled his name after seeing this thread and this [new] article was one of the results. Regardless of whether or not his accusers are lying, isn't it bizarre for a 35 year old man to surround himself with 14 year old boys? There are pictures in this article of Michael in his hotel room with young boys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I understand the whole mob judgment thing so hopefully I see it and am disgusted by the shoddy journalism instead anything else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadApples87 360 Posted January 27 Michael Jackson was a talented musician. Michael Jackson was also a pedophile. His hard-core fans will never accept that both of these things are true. C'mon if you would tell me that it isn't very STRANGE that a grown man is having sleepover parties with kids. The kid's parents also should have done a better job protecting them.

action 1,622 Posted January 27 (edited) MJ was very rich, and his family inherited his fortune. what these accusers want, first and foremost, is money and attention. proof, is in their actions. but I don't need proof to claim so do I? after all, lack of proof never stopped these accusers of accusing MJ themselves. so these SJW's need to make up their minds: do you need proof to accuse someone of something, or you don't? if the answer is yes, then either show your proof or shut the fuck up. you can't have it both ways when it suits you. what does it say of a supposed victim, that they want to make a movie about their misfortune and go to great lenghts at showing it during a film festival? those are not victims; those are attention whores. that in and of itself is a red flag that should make any reasonable person cautious. of course, where there is real abuse, there is grief. there is grief everywhere. but don't go telling your story to the world and pretend you're some kind of hero for "exposing" them. millions of people went before you, and they carried their grief in private. you could argue, it's for preventing more victims, but MJ is fucking DEAD. you're not preventing more victims, you're making NEW victims (his children who have to endure their SJW attacks) Edited January 27 by action 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DieselDaisy 14,095 Posted January 27 I've read a few things today on this upcoming documentary, mock marriages and jewels for sexual favours, and people seem to believe it will be the final nail on Jackson's reputation, essentially assigning him to Gary Glitter status.

Dean 861 Posted January 28 MJ’s nephew said on that crowdfund page that MJ never paid a large sum as settlement. I watched a documentary a few years ago where someone in his inner circle alleged to have put him under hypnosis and ask why he paid the money for to settle the case. Seems a bit odd. The article that the Daily Mail published made me sick at the detail it mentioned. I’ll no doubt watch it, but would certainly like to see what his nephew creates to retaliate. In my heart of hearts, I don’t think Michael Jackson had it in him to sexually harm a child. However I strongly disagree with him sharing a bed with kids that weren’t his and apparently shared a bath too? The whole situation is fucked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But isn't it odd for a fully grown adult male to surround himself with young teenage boys? Feels a bit too Ancient Greek for me. of course it's odd! but he is dead. Why are they even making this documentary? for what purpose? who does it benefit? his kids? the fans? or the self-proclaimed victims? what bothers me, is this is clearly fabricated, not to get reckognition as a victim, but to make a quick buck. MJ is not the agressor (he's dead, there's no point), the "victims" are. they are knowingly disturbing the peace of the MJ family and thus make themselves the absolute biggest scumbag in this story. on their side I see agression and gold-digging, and on the other side I see nothing but grief (his family) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
action 1,622 Posted January 28 (edited) if you ask me, MJ was not a child rapist. he was, by all accounts, a great father and the haters need to shut the fuck up. I hope every father can say the same about themselves: children tell the truth. Who are you gonna believe? an innocent grieving child, or a scumbag gold-digger?

DieselDaisy 14,095 Posted January 28 (edited) All of the Saville stuff transpired post mortem; we shouldn't let the expiration of the suspect derail the truth. Also it isn't a prerequisite that his children would have been exposed to the alleged crimes. Conversely however, I'm always suspicious of allegations emanating after a significant time-lag.

lukepowell1988 822 Posted January 28 Great Musician I was a massive fan when I was younger. But as an older man with kids now of me own you gotta question why the fuck someone would let there kids sleep in the same bed as a 45 year old man I don't care why they are that's just creepy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Len Cnut 11,838 Posted January 28 (edited) I reckon they're all fuckin' bent. Jacko was blatantly a fuckin' nonce, the parents were out for a few fuckin' quid, the media sees it as an oppertunity to make a few quid and then, at the bottom of the food chain is us, the gossiping little mouse clickers that can't get enough of National Enquirer journalism. And now the cunts dead they wanna shake the piggybank to see what else they can get out of it. The human species are generally very predictable, its very rarely a case of the squeaky clean party out for justice against the big bad meanies and more often than not just a circle of mutual exploitation.

lukepowell1988 822 Posted January 28 Yeah I don't think there is smoke without fire the parents especially in the Gavin Arviso case where blatantly out to earn a few bob and Sneddon was desperate to finally lock him up so much so that he fucked up and inevitably helped Jacko get away.

I don’t see why its so hard to accept either, however much you love Jacko, musicians are often wrong uns, junkie, crackhead, dysfunctional mentalists.

Yeah mate I was a huuuge fan used to be a bit obsessed would go to the hotels and wait outside when he was in London and that. But hindsight and age are a wonderful thing maybe being a parent myself now also helps change opinion but i'm pretty convinced he was a nonce Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
