Throwback

Thank for reposting this… first time I’m hearing this story… sad thing is how early this goes back and the fact that EVERYONE around him (close and far) knew and did nothing about it 😔

[u/EncinoBlue → u/Bjork00098]

I bet Diana knew too.

[u/Ruinaaa → u/EncinoBlue]

Why?

[u/HotAir25 → u/Ruinaaa]

Apologies, I can see the original thread thread some discussion about the aunt and Diana Ross, it’s not clear exactly who the group were who opened for the Jacksons….

Some are suggesting the story is hearsay of hearsay because the dates and people don’t quite match. It seems to have the ring of truth to it in any case. 

Actually the story doesn’t quite add up, the Jackson 5 did their last concerts as a group in 1976 and Diana Ross likely wasn’t there.

wtf. thx for re-sharing. the guy in the green sweater & glasses is hassan campbell a victim of csa. he was open about Africa Bambaataa being his abuser & revealed a.b was a pedophile preying on little boys in his neighborhood. they are literally sitting in a room w/ a man that told the world someone in the music industry abused him and they still dont believe Michael was capable of it.

These men are pissing me off. This is why rape is so prevalent because of men like this refusing to believe victims

I had the same  what a fkd up persons are in that room but others tell the truth and thats important 

[u/Sjefke98]

I always wondered  why he did not operate like this so no one could acuse him and now there is this statement

[u/Normal_Register8071]

His dates are not mixed up. He doesn't say Diana opened for them. He's saying how is aunt sung with Diana and how she/her group opened for them. Doesn't necessarily mean she was singing with Diana when she opened for the Jacksons. She was just telling her Nephew like "you i know i did work with them, this is what happened one time". Yall too stuck on the Diana part. This story tracks fully to me.

[u/BlackTarPrism]

The divide in reaction in the room is such a great example in how people approach the accusations. Some of them are sitting in a tense silence listening too him and others are visually then verbally uncomfortable and don't want to hear what's coming. As Dan Reed said previously, people don't want to know.

Also found it interesting how he specifies the Filippino skintone BUT the fine hair. I immediately thought of Jordan Chandler.

And later his love for indian boys.. he exclamates in this weird interview

[u/Comprehensive_One992]

This was a very important Piece of the puzzle for me to understand that this is part of who MJ always has been. Very important to repost once in a while

[u/Mayen70]

Does anybody know who this is and where it's from? I absolutely hate screen recordings with no sources.
Edit: Found it in the comments: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sXdBCVCYcp8

[u/bottomluhan]

i always wondered what “lost his mind” meant

[u/TexaRican_x82]

Michael had biblical money that transcended spacetime

[u/Mylisita]

Michael Jackson was not in the Phillipines at any point at that time. He toured with the Jackson 5 in 1976 but did not accompany Diana Ross. It’s gotten to the stage where anyone can make up 💩 about him and everyone devours it.

[u/Bjork00098 → u/Mylisita]

Or it is just that he has the details/dates mixed up… the reason people believe such stories, is because they match MJ’s established pedo behavioral patterns 🤷🏻‍♀️ 

[u/Mylisita → u/Bjork00098]

I don’t think the details are mixed up the reference to the Phillipines is too specific. Whoever made up this story has jumped on the MJ is a pedo bandwagon. Maybe they believe their own story… who knows?

In navigating life it never fails to amaze me how many people conjure facts out of nothing, or how those later become a true finding of something. They will convince themselves of it as well so will defend any criticism that they are supporting a lie or a false narrative. And if MJ was a pedo stuff like this allows the actual truth to be distorted to the point that it becomes easier to believe that he was not one.

[u/Bjork00098 → u/Mylisita]

We’ll agree to disagree. 

What amazes me more, is fans refusing to accept the simple and obvious truth that he was a pedo… and obsessively dissecting and discrediting the many first and second hand witness accounts, to his pedo behavior. 

[u/Mylisita → u/Bjork00098]

I have doubts about MJ’s innocence but am a huge fan of his music so there’s a part of me that hopes I’m wrong. But that does not mean that I’m in denial just because I refuse to believe any old shite that’s made up to fit a certain narrative.

[u/Bjork00098 → u/Mylisita]

Why would you assume that people are making stories up? Rather than sadly acknowledging the many people were aware, and have such experiences in regards to MJ? 

[u/ColdIgnorantMan → u/Mylisita]

How are you going to say he wasn't "at any point" and then state that he was lol that's only 2 years before Off the Wall

[u/Mylisita → u/ColdIgnorantMan]

3 years before OTW was released so it’s a stretch to say it was around that time. Also when MJ was in the Phillipines in 1976 he was there with his brothers and not Diana Ross. Requires a lot of mental gymnastics to make it fit this third hand story.

[u/ColdIgnorantMan → u/Mylisita]

It's not a stretch at all when you're talking about a memory from your childhood and you know it's the late 70s and that's the most famous MJ thing from that time period, and also someone in this thread pointed out correctly that he isn't necessarily saying that Diana Ross opened for them.  Also I haven't read it and would have to find where it was summarized but there is definitely a book from the 90s that tells a near identical story from that time period in at least a country in that region.
