What about this notion that after your movie came out, if one thought logically, the movie should have taken Jackson down. But in fact his popularity rose after your movie, and streaming numbers on Jackson’s music rose and they only continue to grow. Since then, we’ve had the MJ Broadway musical, which is a huge hit and tours. So what does that say? It says that people don’t care that he was a child molester. Literally, people just don’t care. None of the allegations in Leaving Neverland have been seriously challenged, right? But there was enough noise online from those simplistic debunking [videos] that people found it easy to give themselves permission to like Michael Jackson’s music again, if they ever stopped liking it. I think a lot of people just love his music and turn a deaf ear. And short of having actual video evidence of Michael Jackson engaged in sexual intercourse with a 7-year-old child, I don’t know what would be sufficient to change these people’s minds. I’m not trying to stop anyone from consuming his music. I’ve never advocated canceling Michael Jackson. Book burning is for the Middle Ages and the Taliban. I just think if you’re going to enjoy his music, let’s also consider the fact that he liked to have sex with children and see how that affects your enjoyment, in all honesty.

I've rarely seen a documentary filmmaker or journalist be this blunt before

like are they not embarrassed by this stuff

Man looking into a mirror sadly, text says “did I just argue with a joke” “part of a Bluesky educational series”

I feel like this image could be posted so many times per day, and not even once on the same joke

Pretty wild to see a bunch of people not realizing that they're just joking around and shooting the shit throughout the interview.

We have a visible human misery problem - homelessness and addiction. It's hurting Uptown and places all over. People and businesses are right to expect their government to fix it. But portraying this as a violent crime wave (it hasn't just been Shaffer) isn't accurate.

I’ve practiced aikido myself for about ten years so I think I’ve earned my ability to judge him lol

Sometimes a friend of mine likes to jump scare me with that “I Wan’ Da Punani” song and it never gets less horrifying

oh brother, I didn’t hear about that lololol

Steven Seagal’s aikido “black belt” was purchased, not earned

Oh it turns out that vanquishing the college student who uses they/them in their email signature is not bringing you the fulfillment that you hoped for? You are still working in your crappy and unfulfilling job, paying a mortgage you now can't afford, and dealing with your annoying kids... I see.

there's a pervasive belief on here among combative people with cartoon avatars that any criticisms they receive are because of their marginalized identities and not because they're at the party acting rude while dressed like donald duck

Fix your hearts or die.

some of these criticisms of Omar are pure “this bitch eating crackers”

Given the ugly things MTG has said about Omar personally I would consider that maybe you’re misinterpreting her, orrrr you could continue to snivel about how criticism of your emotional support apartheid state is racism ackshually. Up to you I guess!

kind of amazing how rancid Bush 2 era Islamophobia is fine with some of you people as long as it’s passed off as “I’m just so concerned about antisemitism uwu”

Oh some of you morons are still doing this, huh

Then the Maker said:
To you, My second-born, I grant this gift:
In your heart shall burn
An unquenchable flame
All-consuming, and never satisfied.
From the Fade I crafted you,
And to the Fade you shall return
Each night in dreams
That you may always remember Me.

PARASAUROLOPHUS NOT EVEN RANKED??? MODS?? MODS????

Also if you’re yelling about how she should be primaried bc you think that would get you a more left alternative, look at who her primary opponents actually are

in a beautiful display of togetherness I rarely see, both dumb libs AND dumb communists on this website choose to blindly believe this obvious bullshit clickbait headline and are screaming about a thing Ilhan never fucking said. Gooood jerrrrb

do you want "Catholicism but american" we invented that, it's called Episcopalianism and it's even more woke. all the priests are lesbians. good luck

Also this goes for people who opine on public transit who don’t take it much if at all. To name the funniest example I’ve seen: saw a dude squawking that “you can’t expect luxury spa service, KAREN” at ppl complaining about smoking on the train, checked location in bio, and? Car dependent suburb

so glad you deign to visit the peasants once in a while but perhaps spend more than a couple hours there before you open your yap and say things

really love seeing commentary on events in my home neighborhood from people who are like “well I drive through there once a week”

not saying you have to attack that author personally but if they write stuff like this, well, there’s a lot to have a laugh at here and not in the way they intended is all I’m saying

mfw some prestige actor I previously liked justifies taking a paycheck to play Prof Scrunglejerk for like ten minutes

why must everyone be such a gloomy Gus? You should be promoting the ethical Harry Potter project, available for free on most video hosting sites: WIZARD PEOPLE DEAR READER

grump opinion: if your satire account is going to talk about the author who’s basically Temu Terry Pratchett you should get mean with it
