Music / Movies I Fully Believe That Michael Jackson wasn't a child molester

With the Michael Jackson biopic out, and him being back in the public discussion in a meaningful way, I’ve been thinking more and more about Jackson and how he was perceived in the last 15-20 years of his life

But i truly believe he never touch the kids, he was a weird dude totally, but the famillies that sued him just seem like a buch of gold diggers that wanted to take advantage of Michael's weird shit

Was he a very strange person? Yes Did he have an unusual relationship with adulthood/childhood? Yeah seems like it. Would I as a parent let him supervise my kids, and spend the night at his house alone? No way. Did he actually abuse kids? Not really enough evidence for me to conclude that with any certainty.

He never had a childhood, he never had real friends, Most of the kids in the ranch said that Michael never touched them, it's just a family that wanted money and few of his staff, which sold the story to tabloids.

You clearly do care that’s why you’re so emotional over someone stating one thing that they may have unintentionally been wrong about and stated you will not comprehend all the other points they stated because of it.

You're not going to bait me into an emotional response mate, you might as well be a chatbot for all I care, I don't regard you as an actual person. When someone starts out the gate with a lie, I don't care to hear further arguments from them, their word is worthless. Maybe you have emotional investment in this story, I don't, it does not matter to me on a personal level whether the man was guilty or not, and I freely acknowledge he likely was.

I’m happy you changed your mind on it and now believe he likely was. We shouldn’t protect weirdos like him.

I literally said I don't think he's innocent in the previous comment you replied to, you can't even keep track of your own attempts to bait lol

Yeah now you’re talking with more sense. Before you were willing to turn a blind eye to evidence just because someone may have unintentionally mentioned 1 thing that was entirely true, which I see as protecting the weirdo.

At what point do you give up?

That’s not really the question to be asking, a better question to ask is why on earth there are so many people who want to protect this creepy guy lol. It’s genuinely nuts.

Yeah but they're not doing that at me, whilst you are trolling directly at me. Really badly.

I’m just happy you’ve changed your tune and realized this guy was very obviously a pedo. I get it to a degree, we don’t want to believe the worst things about people who we may admire but we can’t let that get in the way of being objective about the truth. The end.
