oh, so now we willingly believe everything we hear? not when it comes to MJ though, right? that makes sense.

Funny enough I always felt Janet got the MAJOR passes that Nicki Minaj never got (on here) since both their brothers being terrible people. Janet only gets a pass cause we all like and grew up with her music but she was out there standing by Mike's side no difference from Nicki standing by her brother and husband. 🫠

Also there are just so many people who loudly defend MJ so they support Janet for speaking well of him tbh. Makes sense, Nicki’s brother didn’t put out They Don’t Care About Us lmao

I’ve mentioned this here but I’ve gotten into it with two MJ defenders irl this last year and they are truly uncrackable nuts, it feels like arguing with maga logic and it’s so conspiracy driven

Also BOTH people tried to tell me that Jackson was framed because the real predators wanted to humiliate him and that’s why the media said he liked “little boys” - like him being a pedophile was one thing but a gay pedophile??? Obviously a conspiracy! 🥴

It’s too much to try and tackle the homophobia they slipped into already mind boggling discussions, they’ve gotten be getting these talking points from the same rotten online communities

This is so real. I keep getting recommended videos about Diddy and apparently this topic’s a slippery slope to nutty conspiracy shit- and people actually talk about his being attracted to men as though it’s just as bad or worse than the actual depraved and criminal shit he did. People are fucking wild

Yep, inevitably if there’s any M/M stuff going on when someone gets exposed (especially in the industry) there is always some homophobia steeping in the discourse because those people think any gay or bisexual men are sick in the head. It’s offensive for SO many reasons that’s harmful to men of all sexualities but also the fact that I’m seeing more chatter about “diddy liking men” as a general concept than the brutalization he did (((mostly to women))) is bugging me too

I once worked with a MJ defender.
She was already a fucking awful person, but once she started talking about conspiracies around MJ it was like everything clicked into place.
