Like…how DUMB does a person have to be, how uncaring, to not realize that he mutilated himself out of enormous, almost unfathomable, self-loathing?

Oh my God, THIS a thousand times over. People are just so quick to judge, psychological understanding and empathy is only the most intuitive in other people that have been slighted in a similar way.. otherwise the majority of people are, honestly, barbaric in the fashion they condemn others that fall so far beyond norms like Michael did. I love him. It’s reassuring to know that wherever he is, he’s finally in peace for the first time.

I’m so proud to belong to ONTD(lj comm) they are being so respectful about this tragedy. It’s the last place I’d thought would react this way :’).
However I am ashamed to have ever made fun of MJ in the past, with the jokes about his appearance and stuff (before I knew about vitiligo) apart from that I think I never commented on any of posts about him. And when he died on thursday I started thinking and remembering what he meant to me, when I was a little girl I was in love with him, I thought I was going to marry him.

The media really was very horrible to him, making up stuff about him wanting to look white(never informing about vitiligo), I seriously had to do my own research to find out the thruth about so much lies, and the pedophile accusations, never proven guilty and yet people condemn him. I can’t imagine how he must have felt.

” the majority of people are, honestly, barbaric in the fashion they condemn others that fall so far beyond norms like Michael did” I was thinking about that I wish I had been more understanding about him, reading and watching interviews about him, he’s so shy and softspoken, and that’s something I can relate to, people look at us as weird and like the have the right to tear us down, make fun of us. It’s sad.

It’s so nice to have places like ontd, unlike fb… where there’s this pretentious douchebag I know, he has the biggest ego EVER, he thinks he’s hot sh*t, he had this as his status “why so much talk about Michael Jackson?”, and of course two people responded”yah ENOUGH” “haheheh”… I mean it has only been one day since the biggest pop icon died, why are they surprised? ALL I could think about is I NEED NEW FRIENDS -_-
