Even though there was absolutely NO EVIDENCE of him being a p****phile, do you still view him as The King Of Pop (as I do), do you just simply listen to his music if its on the radio or have you never liked him (for some bizarre reason)?

Love his music. Hes definitely the king of pop. Annoys me a lot when Swifties bring up him or the Beatles as if Taylor Swift is more revolutionary or popular than either.
He's all alone through the day and night.

Doesn't matter how people view him as a pedo or not, the general consensus is despite whatever he did at home, he will still be the greatest entertainer of the 20th century.

Lots and lots of classics, obviously one of the greats for most of his career, even as a kid. Dangerous was a big step down though, while still good, and I cant think of anything I like of his after that era

too much conflicting evidence for me to have an opinion on his personal life

Why did he do weird pelvic thrusting moves throughout his videos especially that way you make me feel video, but then also go around and say he's a kid at heart and like to hang out with kids? Those 2 actions are incompatible, one is not like the other.

That's the only thing that bothered me in the 2000s that I used to wonder about.

No evidence except the testimony of the people he molested?

There's just way too goddamned much smoke for me to ever believe he wasn't a pedophile.

His influence on music and entertainment is also undeniable.

But I do think he was a pedophile.

King of Pop for sure. There will never be another one like him. Such a shame he ruined his face with all the surgeries, as I thought his black and white timeline was as close to perfection a person could get look wise. It went downhill from 1992.

I think he was an incredible artist, but I also think his behaviors with children were very concerning, (no matter what was proven in a court), to the point where I wouldn't have at all felt comfortable leaving children alone with him. I don't turn off the radio or anything if his music comes on though.
But there was always this question floating around about whether MJ or Prince was ultimately better. Prince definitely comes out on top for me.

Like, if his movement wasn't so weird and sexualized, I wouldn't think anything of him sharing a bed with random stranger's kids that are not his own. But it's the grabbing crotch shots that make me frown tbh when compounded on top of that.

I consider some of his music to be pretty good. Pretty eccentric guy, but that's no surprise considering it's lonely at the top, and he objectively was at the top.
He has been in awkward situations concerning minors (not just the molestation allegations but also stuff like lifting his baby child over the balcony to show off to the press), but as a rule of thumb I'll let actual judges be the literal judge of such things.
One time, CE triggered me so hard with their objectively wrong opinions that I accidentally punched myself in the balls.

A lot of people assume calling him a pedophile means he raped children. And it's true, there's no evidence of that. However there is very strong evidence of him doing weird, extremely inappropriate things with kids. The question is whether he took things to the point where they were illegal. Especially in the 1980s, when laws about that thing were a lot less strict and a lot more ambiguous.

His music was great, obviously, some of the best of all time.

I mean, he doesn't have to be a pedo to be a weirdo. That was far from the only thing he got negative attention for.

But anyway, he was one of the greatest entertainers of the 20th century, or even #1.

It's just weird that some people believe this.

What's weird is people believing he did when there's not a SHRED of evidence.

He probably had a lot of trauma from his dad who abused him physically and mentally (called him fat nose). Its got to be the reason he did so much work on his face.

As for the pedo things. Im not sure. His own childhood which he didnt have much of since he was performing from a young age probably fucked him up lots and he may not have gotten the help he needed.

No but since people are 110% convinced he did it, I just thought I'd ask for the proof but even now as I type, NONE has been provided!

It's almost as if he didn't do what they say he did...

I don't know about anyone else, but I don't proof of anything. All I need is basic common sense to know that letting little kids have unattended sleepovers with MJ was a bad fucking idea.
