Been seeing so many bad takes online about how Joesph made Michael the success he was, equating his abuse of his son with the talent, perseverance, and drive Michael had. Which is just mindbogglingly stupid and incorrect. I firmly believe Michael would have been even more successful had he been loved unconditionally as a child and encouraged rather than oiled up naked and beaten by his father until Joseph tired out. Fucking hell. He’d probably still be here making music or directing films, cheering on his own children, and living a full life were it not for that monster of a man. I know Michael forgave his father in the end and I understand that because many people need to forgive their parents to move on, and he especially wished to live like Christ. But those who love Michael from the outside looking in can hold Joseph accountable forever for his actions and wish to turn back time to protect that little boy from ever experiencing that. The same people who talk that shit will post right after being like Michael deserved so much better, talking about the media’s treatment of him, when turn around and look who else spawned out of that need to treat him as an object for their own personal pleasure and value. You’d see Joseph, you’d see the media, and you’d see yourself. Talking about Joseph’s abuse made MJ the star he was. Shut upppppp.
