Most people decided he was guilty decades ago and will never change their mind. Sadly its been a joke for a lot of people.

He's also dead so it really doesn't matter

Sorry the MJ is guilty thing has been a joke since the late nineties. It didn't matter if he was innocent or not.

I am glad he's innocent but "MJ is obviously a pedophile just look at him." Has been a joke for a long time.

lol that Leaving Neverland thing was debunked so many times. Plus, you can't cancel someone when death did it for them.

Well they did stop showing the Michael Jackson Simpsons episode

How is MJ on there he's dead lol

The Documentary about MJ was full of lies. But why when a white person says a black man is a rapist that is all the proof we need.

god cancelled him

I thought cancel culture wasnt actually a thing and it was just being pushed by the alt-right. Have liberals co-opted the term?

MJ should be vindicated if he can. even in death. its not good to slander a dead innocent man

I don't know, people said negative things about Mother Teresa after her death.

---

yea but those are likely true. I think Mother Teresa was not as good a person as catholics think. I also think MJ was a good man who was just misunderstood and awkward

just wanted to add to the Mother Teresa thing....she really didn't do anything that amazing for the most part. the only people who think she was great are biased Catholics who think only her "saving souls" matters. but you take that away and she at best did nothing of value. and at worst, was a horrid human

God, cancel culture isn't a thing. People are just being held accountable for their shitty behavior. I mean look at totally cancelled Dave Chapelle, Louis CK, Bill Burr, Aziz Ansari, Kevin Hart and Ricky Gervais. Their lives and careers are in shambles!

Oh wait

Tales From the Teenage Cancel Culture
Whats cancel culture really like? Ask a teenager. They know.

A few weeks ago, Neelam, a high school senior, was sitting in class at her Catholic school in Chicago. After her teacher left the room, a classmate began playing Bump N Grind, an R. Kelly song.
Neelam, 17, had recently watched the documentary series Surviving R. Kelly with her mother. She said it had been emotional to take in as a black woman.
Neelam asked the boy and his cluster of friends to stop playing the track, but he shrugged off the request. Its just a song, she said he replied. We understand hes in jail and known for being a pedophile, but I still like his music.
She was appalled. They were in a class about social justice. They had spent the afternoon talking about Catholicism, the common good and morality. The song continued to play.
That classmate, who is white, had done things in the past that Neelam described as problematic, like casually using racist slurs not name-calling among friends. After class, she decided he was canceled, at least to her.
Her decision didnt stay private; she told a friend that week that she had canceled him. She told her mother too. She said that this meant she would avoid speaking or engaging with him in the future, that she didnt care to hear what he had to say, because he wouldnt change his mind and was beyond reason.
When it comes to cancel culture, its a way to take away someones power and call out the individual for being problematic in a situation, Neelam said. I dont think its being sensitive. I think its just having a sense of being observant and aware of whats going on around you.

Aziz did nothing to be cancelled over.

You know damn well that's not what people bitch about when it comes to cancel culture.

Care to define cancel culture? Cause it seems like you want to separate what is and isn't cancel culture based on some arbitrary criteria

Look at all those alt right icons

Those arent alt right. This are just right-wing. The alt right doesnt really exist. People in the public zeitgeist tried to make it a thing and it didnt stick.

sucks youre still trying to get it to Stick when it just isnt true.

That is a terrible reimagining of history.

Mother Teresa was definitely a controversial figure, especially in more recent times. But you cant erase the fact that she personally helped feed, treat, and otherwise care for thousands of Indias poorest citizens for more than four decades. Forty plus years. Most people work regular, comfortable jobs for only half as long, and they very rarely do it in places housing the diseased and unwanted.

I am fully aware of the criticisms people have of her, including her anti-abortion views and her very Catholic perspective on suffering for salvation. She could have run her charity missions with less emphasis on promoting religion and instead provide much better health care, for example. She wasnt perfect and I dont agree with the Church declaring her a saint. But saying or even implying she did nothing of value is ridiculous.

There is an alt-right but people use the term for anyone who is just right-wing

the two are not actually the same

doesn't it go without saying only catholics like mother theresa? why bring it up? it's the same way protestants admire luther when everyone else acknowledges he was a crazy man who had hallucinations of the devil in his jail cell. religion will make people sectarian. it also closes their minds.
