    I really havent done a deep dive or anything but as someone that performed as a kid and faced a lot of abuse, i believe the folks that say he was providing a safe space for the kids in a hostile world. Going against that culture in hollywood is certain to ruffle some feathers enough to spread rumors.

      Macaulay Culkin and Corey Feldman seem to defend his friendship in a way that suggests he was a good friend to them. Feldman seems to not shy away from spilling the beans on the horrible things that happened to him but he defends MJ, so maybe that says something.

        Honestly feldman’s defence is a big part of why i believe it. Tbcf, i was raised on mj, so i already didnt want to believe the rumors but it really just comes off as hollywood vitriol
