I miss the days it didn’t bother me as much Why does it bother you more now than before? What changed? I think the backlash after leaving neverland made me anxious about people bringing it up, was reading stuff on the net about it when it aired, cause I wasn’t on this board yet, and I guess it was a sore spot for me cause the trial years ago stressed me out and seemed to take over me emotionally and I don’t want to go through it again if wade/James case goes to trial. I feel like I didn’t sign up for any of this when I became a fan decades ago and think it’s so unfair what they’ve all done to him…

Such is the sheer talent of Michael Jackson that his work transcends the BS even though he's no longer here.

Yes it’s depressing to me and reminds me how cruel the world could be, not something I want to feel right now with some other stuff going on

The fact that the fans are still here, despite all the pushback, is a testament to how amazing he was. I really can't imagine any other artist having gone through what MJ did with a fanbase still intact. Of course, it helps that he was innocent too, but yes, it's a hell of a lot to sign up for as a fan at times....

In answer to the original question, honestly, not in the slightest. People believe all sorts of things I disagree with or find repugnant. This is just another of those things.

I was thinking this the other day that's its amazing that he was never cancelled and is still played on mainstream radio (yes I think it's less than before but that may be just my imagination (once again). Bearing in mind what he was accused of (multiple times), radio and music TV are so reluctant not to play him is a testament to the man's talent.

A year ago a radio station that plays indie music was trashing mj and they never play him. They were talking about r.Kelly getting cancelled and went out of their way to say mj was a horrible person too and they’ve gotten complaints from mj fans, it pissed me off hearing that cause it sounded like they enjoyed and believed what they were saying without any information

He's not exactly indie music.
