Just Beanis is stuck in my head because some stupid fuck (with love) got it stuck in my brain this morning and now I’m binging Michael Jackson songs. I was too young when these allegations and since then I’ve read all kinds of things about his life, and I would like to know what you guys think is and isn’t real. I read bits about his troubled childhood, his humanity, and his apparent dark side. To me this man is a fucking titan of music.

Regarding the allegations I’ve read everything from him being a prolific pedophile to being a deeply caring and misunderstood man who wanted to help kids. Was this just a homophobic, racist hitjob?

What do you guys think?

    Was MJ a creep? yes. Was he a pedo? I doubt it.

    Yes he had abnormal relationships with children but I'm convinced that it was him trying to come to grips with his own fucked up childhood. He never got to be a kid so when he finally realized he was free to do whatever he wanted he decided to hang out with children to try to tap into their perspective and vicariously experience childhood.
