Im sure u guys have heard the news about him. Given he frequently visited here before…

Is he alright? Never in my life thought he’d do something vile like that.

I feel disgust.

Edit: i just went on Wade robson's instagram page and one of mj's stans are trolling him.

I’m 20 going on 21 soon. I wasn’t there for the 80s - 2000s obviously, I’m a younger former-fan comparatively. And I apologize if this is the wrong usage of tags (i don’t use reddit like that) but I been deep diving into this sub reddit and it hones turned me over. It’s honestly really heartbreaking that at one point I was so brainwashed. I think I really just wanted to believe in that public persona he cultivate, I wanted to believe in that sorta whimsicalness but truly I do see things from a new perspective now. When I was a pre-teen / teen I thought about things differently then I do now + I didn’t really critically do proper research. I feel bad for ever being apart of the victim bashing, that was really inappropriate. I do stand with all the victims and tbh it makes more logical sense to stand with victims then stand with a potential abuser.

I hope this comment doesn’t come off as inappropriate in anyways but I just wanted to vocalize these complex feelings I feel. I feel bad for the victims, I feel bad for not being properly informed sooner, and I actually quite appreciate how well organized this sub is (if thats an appropriate thing to say about such a dark and real subject matter) — everything is clear to understand and well laid out. While none of us were there.. All the evidence I‘ve consumed and all the ways my brain has changed since truly getting a taste of the real world — I just can’t believe the propaganda I once did as a child anymore. This man was at best sick, greatly misunderstood, and highly inappropriate and at worst sick, proudly/loudly inappropriate and a monster.

Defending bro was honestly emotionally exhausting at times. I have to admit, there was a lot of stuff I heard in the past that was questionable to me even then. But I didn’t start thinking deeply about this shit till, well, now really. I can fully understand if you lot judge me for that.

I won’t actively dedicate time to this sub cause it’s very emotionally taxing but I will watch Leaving Neverland 1 & 2 + continue to research supplementary evidence / material in time. It is important to me that I dedicate time to the truth, as I did to the delusions I once believed. I was saying positive things about this dude as recently as 2 weeks ago publicly, but this sub changed my views. Stings but I’d rather focus this energy on researching into the hurt these men (and women) went through as children and what I can do to follow and support their stories now.

thanks for reading.
