After Watching The HBO Doc Leaving Neverland, Michael Jackson Is Officially CANCELED
Last night HBO aired part 1 of Leaving Neverland. Tonight is part 2. Its Michael Jackson’s R Kelly moment. MJ being some sort of deviant is no secret. Everyone has known about him being weird with kids forever. From his amusement park to Macaulay Culkin everyone knows Michael Jackson was fucked up and probably assaulted little boys. But last night was the first time the world heard it straight from the accusers mouths on a big platform. Last night was the first time all the details were made public in a very widespread way. And man oh man is it fucked up. I had been told ahead of time from someone who saw a screener that he told all his friends with small children that it might be difficult to sit through. He said it was a tougher watch than Escaping R. Kelly. And he wasn’t wrong.
Long story short, part one explains how MJ found kids who were enormous fans. These kids were seven years old and performing as Michael Jackson impersonators at talent shows and what not, Michael would fly them out to the Ranch and take them on tour with him. (Already kinda weird) He somehow lulled the parents into a false sense of security and convinced them to let their KIDS SLEEP IN BED WITH HIM. (Definitely weird) And then he would violate them by doing the following (I feel uncomfortable even typing this):
– Teaching them how to masturbate
– Asking them to bend over and spread their cheeks while he jerked off (He asked 7 year old boys to do the Casting Couch, man. FUCK thats twisted)
– He would ask them to turn around on all fours while watching Peter Pan so he could look at them while masturbating
– Would perform oral sex on them and…fucking goddamn it…I dont even want to explain this…he would lick their asses
– And it sounds like they were just flat out having full blown intercourse all over his ranch. The one accuser likened it to when you first start dating someone and you’re in the honeymoon phase and you have a lot of sex anywhere and everywhere. He said thats what they were doing. He was SEVEN YEARS OLD.
Its brutal man. Its fucking BRUTAL. Its nothing new but its a whole different experience when you hear the explicit details. He used to play games with them where he would knock on the door and teach them how to quickly put their clothes. Like he turned it into a game to make sure he wouldnt get caught. Super creepy stuff where you know that MJ knew it was wrong and knew he needed to cover it all up. I think because Michael Jackson was abused as a kid theres a decent amount of sympathy for him. I think a lot of people know that his fucked up behavior comes from a place of abuse. But this documentary shows just how much he used to put into it and how manipulative and careful he was. No matter where it all came from, it was some dark, disgusting, deplorable shit.
Now, of course theres the Michael Jackson Stans coming out to defend their king. Claiming he’s innocent and that the accusers have been caught lying in the past. A lot of people mentioning that these guys were not able to prove any of this in a court of law and that MJ was never convicted. I’ll be honest, I dont know any of those details. I dont know how trustworthy the guys in the documentary are. Apparently they mention another person and say he was abused to, and that person released a statement saying it was not true. So theres a lot of convoluted details and what not. But as we saw with R. Kelly, he was able to get off legally as well .When you’re literally the most successful musician in the history of humankind, you probably have some pretty good lawyers. You’re probably pretty fucking powerful. You probably pay off a LOT of people to keep things quiet. You gotta be one naive idiot to think that just because a mega celebrity wasnt convicted or because some victims chose to not come forward that it means the person is completely innocent. Bottom line is everyone admits these kids were in his fucking bed. And in my opinion, where theres smoke theres certainly fire when it comes to Michael Jackson.
And as disgusting as that dude was, the people who end up looking the worst were the parents. The one victim’s mom was chuckling the whole fucking interview. The entire time she retold the story she was laughing and shooting the breeze like she was retelling some old family stories about fun events. I wanted to scream at the TV “REMINDER! YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT HOW YOUR CHILD GOT RAPED RIGHT UNDER YOUR NOSE!!” She was explaining how her son didnt have any friends and everyone was so excited to be chosen to hang out with and tour with Michael Jackson that she didnt think twice about any of it. Uhhhh WHAT? Even if you did go to a show or you let your kid perform on stage with him, the minute he asks to spend a night, alone, in bed, with your child, something in your head needs to go off. Some part of you needs to know thats not a safe situation for your kid. And even if you stupidly got fooled once or twice, once it became very obvious that your SEVEN YEAR OLD CHILD is spending copious amounts of private time, all over the world, with a very strange adult man, you have to step up and protect your kid!!I fundamentally dont understand. I dont care how star struck you were or how much money he was giving you. I dont care how happy your kid was he got to be on stage with Michael Jackson. You basically straight up let your kid get raped. I have no idea how those people live with themselves, let alone sit there on camera and retell the story slapping their knees while yucking it up. Nauseating. I dont even wanna watch part 2 its so gross.
