Why do you keep bring it back? Chemically bleached skin was an invention created by one movie directed by a man who never read the comics. It's not an intrinsic part of his character.
You're a delusional man and I'm academically curious what made you that way.
"Of course I’m repeating my arguments, because you by-passed them. The guy ahead of you said no one ever makes the argument that they’d let their child sleep with Jackson. Well, why ever not? He’s all misunderstood and innocent and stuff."
I actually presented counter-arguments, you're the one that's avoiding them.
"And of COURSE you don’t care about celebrity. No one who argues for MJ ever cops to that."
I don't care about celebrity. I don't know what else to say. Except, do you have any evidence that I'm...oh wait, never mind. You don't need evidence to believe in imaginary facts.
"Bill Cosby is in prison. MJ always got off. He paid off a lot of people, but he always got off. And he even has people defending him.... the guy, etc."
You could have suspicions of someone. I had them of MJ too. I lot of his fans did. But I didn't form a conclusion until an examination of the evidence was done. I would hold this true equally for MJ and the weirdo at thee end of the street.
"You need evidence. There are plenty of experts in pedophilia who will tell you that if MJ wanted to look like a pedophile, he couldn’t have done a better job..... And then there are the accusations."
An Appeal to Authority based on a pop-science is not hard evidence. There's a reason criminal profiling is rarely used today in a court of law. It's less than useless as a science.
"No, you don’t want evidence....Heck, they told me they weren’t, either."
Actually, yeah I do. Show me that movie which shows MJ showing sexual feelings for a kid and I would hang the man myself. And you have a weird way of asserting people's motivations. You just can't go of the conclusions you jump to.
So you're pretty much repeating the same arguments instead of trying to refute the ones I already countered them with. Your second paragraph is just a red herring. I can tell I'm going to go in circles with you... but let me comment on a few nuggets of worth here...
I thought I was already clear on this, I don't give a shit about celebrity and fame. They're just people with a better job than me and I only ever cringed at the the celebrity worship culture that protected guys like Bill Cosby. I would show the same level of compassion for any man whose being blamed by sheep for the conclusions they jumped to. My skepticism isn't aimed at the imaginary victims but the ACCUSATION. If an accusation is on the table, I need evidence before I consider it true. "He's weird though," and "look, he kinda acts like one," aren't good enough. If you're that much of a simpleton to be that easily persuaded, never serve on a jury and make sure you stick to medial jobs.
"A middle-aged, unmarried man moves in at the end of the street. He starts putting up all kinds of fun games and rides to attract kids. He zeroes in on kids from unhappy or broken homes and makes them his special friends.... talks about inappropriate things, and tells them if they ever tell they'll both spend the rest of their lives in prison."
These are rumors that have been debunked by Macaulay Culkin, Corey Feldman, Taj and Brandi Jackson and plenty of grown previous kids that spent the night with him. He literally just played games with them and went on his way. And there's an infinite number of reasons a relationship can fail. Him being a little on the weird and shy side can't help.
"This is where folks usually say, "Aha! And if you really believed he molested your little boy, would you accept one of his many payoffs? I wouldn't!" Did you miss the part about the unhappy or broken homes? The parents of these children aren't model citizens in the first place. He chooses carefully. He finds parents who can be bought off. He plies them with presents so their guard will come down. If the children were the parents' first priority, they'd have told him to keep his presents; their children weren't for sale."
Where are these kids by the way? They'de be adults now. They can come out in the wake of this documentary and say it. I mean, it's gotta to be some good closure. Nothing's stopping them, other than the fact they don't exist and this narrative you just spun was a fantasy.
"If it walks, quacks, and swims like a duck, it probably is a duck."
If the Earth looks flat than it must be flat.
"What's truly sad is that you'd excuse anything he did because you like his music and performances. Such is our culture of celebrity worship."
It's called compassion and rational skepticism. His music and fame have nothing to do with it. And it's a broken record excuse from people like you at this point.
Why that would entail admitting that they're wrong, like an adult or something.
Facing the fact you're a sheep is psychologically difficult, so they'll opt to make it more difficult by digging a rabbit hole with their ego.
I feel the need to correct you. They don't "think" Michael is innocent. They are aware of the fact he's innocent. They were rational skeptics who studied the evidence in full and became informed.
If you're the kind of simpleton that's easily persuaded by circumstantial evidence, don't pretend that you jumping to conclusions is anyone else's problem.
Forget science, facts, reason, evidence, justice. Everything is now about progressivism and muh feelings.
Baaaah says the sheep.
Well he factually isn't so no, I don't.
If zero substantive facts and hallow emotional arguments are conclusive to you, yeah, I don't need to pretend I'm smarter than you.
MJ is compulsively non confrontational to the point of it being a sickness. He'll run away from you if you even politely disagree. No way was the man going to puff his chest and confront the allegations in a log court battle, especially with the risk of his genitals being aired in public. It's more in his character to sweep it under the rug and never hear from it again. And 25 mill is peanuts to him. He can make that back in a few hours.
Americans made the Godfather and Patton while Europeans are too busy smelling their own farts to care about a good story.
P.S. I'm Canadian.
"Too may people don't want to accept what's been right in front of their eyes for decades."
You're right. Too many people can't spot circumstantial evidence when it's in front of them. Irrationality is a difficult thing to accept.
There's a word for these people. They're called sheep.
Welp. If a sight says it's objective, no further evidence needed right?
I'm going to assume the video is just a big manchild hissy fit whining about trivial nit-picks and misinterpreted plot holes.
Watches video....YEP
Evidence? Where's the evidence that he's a pedophile?
Fish don't fry in the kiitcheeeen, bees don't burn on the grill.
Saying a word in and of itself does not denote racism in the absence of a racist context. The fact that you Americans think this is biblically f*** stupid.
She wanted to find Miles.
Nobody knows Fisk is a supervillain. He's a legitimate businessman in people's eyes. That's why he's not in jail.
He's not. Spider-man holds back in fights with him. Fisk killed the grown Spider-man because he was half dead anyways. And Miles struggled because he's still a kid and his powers and skills aren't ripe yet.
Because they know this isn't their Gwen. And there's no evidence that famous arc even happened in their universe.
Why is that important?
