[–] pr06lefs@lemmy.ml 56 points 3 days ago* (3 children) MJ: "you know, I'm something of a snake in the grass myself" permalink fedilink source hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] wyldrstallyns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 3 days ago* (2 children) Considering the thematic overlaps between said character portrayed and MJ's off-stage history IRL... 🥲 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AlteredEgo@lemmy.ml -1 points 1 day ago* (1 child) Are you implying that Michael Jackson was a pedophile? Because that has been pretty much proven to be completely false. Like with overwhelming absence of evidence. If such things as truth and justice matter to you at all of course. Maybe you said this just for the lulz. I saw this meme pop up on reddit, and it's reposted here and follows the same disgusting trajectory here. "Oh look MJ stole!" No he didn't, he credited Bob Fosse who admired MJ for being an amazing dancer and perfecting this style. "Oh look it's a snake and a child, get it? get it?" - no he was innocent and framed by the media and racist prosecutors and people seeking money. I'm so sick how stupid evil will always triumph over justice and truth because it is so relentless and "so yummy" and "fun" to spew this shit. People have learned nothing today from OP except reinforcing the lies. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] wyldrstallyns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 9 hours ago ffs. 🤦🏼♂️ I'm so sick of redderped and frothy idiots squirming into the fediverse. permalink fedilink source parent
