Yea this thread is mostly bs. And I bet most of these posters hating on mj are 90s babies...in other words they don't know shyt but speak the loudest. Lol
Really mj contributed more to to the advancement of black folks than almost anyone else in the past 30 yearz. This is what I mean when I say most of you guys are too young to know. Mj blew up at a time when racism was way more out in the open. He literally made it culturally acceptable and normal for white people to genuinely like black folks. And he did A LOT directly to help black folks. Like how he use to bus kids in from south central and watts every month to spend a day at neverland on his own dime just for starters. Never heard about that on the news either.
He had his personal issues but I dont think he hated his race. Maybe himself as a person but I don't think it had anything to do with his race. And some of y'all need to step outside the house and smoke a bowl or something. Getting all heated over this shyt....
I don't think anyone in this thread is disputing the fact that MJ did a lot of great things. What's annoying the black people in this thread with some fukking PRIDE FOR THEIR PEOPLE and COMMON SENSE is you biased fanboys/white people who dust the fact that dude didn't rock with blackness like that under the rug like it ain't obvious.
- As stated SEVERAL TIMES, vitiligo did not force the dude to cleft his chin, sharpen his nose, and generally change his entire facial features to completely abandon his negro features in favor of white features. A black man who has love for himself and his people wouldn't do this. He saw European beauty as true beauty and modeled himself after it, and it doesn't get anymore c00nish than that.
- No black person who has love for their people is going to VOLUNTARILY IMPREGNATE A WHITE WOMAN/LET A WHITE MAN PLANT HIS SEED when they have the option to choose(speaking specifically about sperm donating, etc). I am NOT saying a black person isn't allowed to fall in love with someone outside of their race and eventually have biracial children. If that happens then cool, but for a man of MJ's stature to have the choice to pick any mother he wants and ends up picking a white woman is fukking disgusting and shameful. As a black man I literally find this appalling. This reinforces what I previously said - the dude saw white beauty as true beauty and did not value the appearance of his own kind. Disgusting. Lol @ MJ going through the files on what the owner of the eggs looks like and skipping over all the black women with the swiftness until he found himself a Becky.
- And to make matters worse, it can be strongly argued that none of those kids were even made with his own semen. I will say I feel Blanket resembles the shyt out of MJ and that might be his(even has legit light brown skin compared to Prince and Paris), but the others?
The dude wanted his kids to be white so bad that he wouldn't even use his own dna! DIS-GUS-TING. That's self-hatred, ladies and gentelman. That's called not liking being black.
Bleaching your skin = strike one. Redesigning your face to look like a white man = strike two. Having white kids = strike 3. MJ's out.
Michael Jackson was a c00n and a sell out of the highest order. I would argue that there is no artist in the history of black entertainment who has such astounding c00n credentials, and this is coming from someone who LOVES Michael Jackson. Not LOVED....LOVES. He's the king of pop music, the greatest entertainer in music history to me....an absolute legend and just an all around incredible icon, but the facts are the facts, and it's sad....really sad. The dude had strong black genes...was good looking and could take down women of all races. It would have been wonderful to see him age properly with his real looks....fukking sucks.
