THREAD: The Green Book is a beautiful movie about racism and prejudice, genius and otherness. Interestingly enough, in a very racially-charged scene, the artist gets beaten to a pulp in a white-only bar by a group of racists. Viggo Mortensen's character intervenes (1/ 11)...
...And asks for his boss to be let go. The bullies refuse claiming that they "need a brillo pad to wash these dishes with" while rubbing the artist's head. "Brillo pad" is obviously a derogatory term to refer to a black man's hair. Watch the scene: (2/11)

The exact same "brillo pad" racial slur was used by false accuser Wade Robson in the provably slanderous Leaving Neverland, exposed including dozens of lies within mere days from its release. A hit-job aimed at massive financial compensation via public smear (3/11).
The media helped, not only refusing to acknowledge the appalling and easily verifiable lies included in the movie but also its blatantly racist undertone. The same racist body-shaming approach Dan Reed, the director, kept displaying even when it came to Michael's vitiligo (4/11).
Keeping the narrative intact, the press - via specific instructions sent by Kew Media's press kit - hammered their agenda while blatantly ignoring the constant debunking of the movie via court files and actual witnesses. Systematically. (5/11)
Continually (6/11)
...And purposefully, ignoring the astounding amount of evidence and witnesses destroying the entire narrative of the movie, which is based on a fictional pro-pedophilia book by NAMBLA-connected "reporter" Victor Gutierrez. (7/11)
The amount of witnesses who came out in Michael's defense is huge, yet pretty much none of these people was given any space on the news. They have been ignored just as much as the blatantly racist undertone in the movie. (8/11)
Whoever and whatever can prove that Leaving Neverland is nothing but a well-studied feature film aimed at disgusting the audience using ultra-graphic descriptions (and zero evidence) simply doesn't exist for the media. (9/11)
These are just SOME of the countless positive testimonies that emerged in the past months. One of the most poignant was written by the Schleiters, a German family that was close to MJ for childhood on: https://schleiter-family.com/ . (10/11)
So, the "brillo pad" and the "black man = monster" racist tropes are all part of a broader narrative, that does not allow a thoroughly investigated and fully exonerated man to simply have the peace he deserves, but nonetheless get swept under the rug as if its nothing. (11/11)
