reveries:

I’m going to be honest and say that everyone making jokes or finding humor in the death of Michael Jackson is fucking disgusting. I got on Facebook this morning only to see the status “Why is everyone so sad about Michael Jackson dying HE RAPED LITTLE BOYS, is that not important?” and on Tumblr to see that “GIF of the day”. He may have made mistakes in his life, some of which we haven’t even proved true, but don’t we all? Either way we have lost a life, and not just a life. A legend. Although I wasn’t a number one fan, I am aware of the fact that the music I grew up on included The Jackson 5 and Michael Jackson, and I am aware of the impact he had on the face of music. For example, MTV would not air videos of “black” people before the emergence of Michael Jackson. I’m not going to get detailed, but you all need to consider this before you “LOL IRL” at his death. Feel free to criticize me; this is simply my opinion.
