I'm undecided on this. He was probably too naive to be a villain as we conceive of that persona. But one still has to wonder about the all too common cycle of transgenerational sexual abuse. Was MJ actually able to both break that cycle in his own life trajectory as well as heroically counter it in other victims' lives? That would be astounding and unusual. But we could see for sure he had poor brain function especially in later years even just from watching all the footage... he didn't really think like a matured adult, and it's also known that sexual predators almost never think of themselves as predators or doing something wrong because they think they're on equal level emotionally and otherwise of the children they groom/abuse. Who really knows?
He has a very interesting story indeed. His mental damage could have easily came with being abused as a kid. Just look at other hollywood elites who were abused and look how they act/talk...Cory Feldman comes to mind specifically. Very similiar to how MJ was. He also had close ties to Trump, and I highly doubt Trump would have been good friends with a pedo.
I only remember him from Britney Spears. There was a pic of her grabbing his junk through his pants and I was young and attracted to Britney at the time, hormones raging, it was etched in my mind.
