A Certain Quebecois Streamer Has Entered the Michael Jackson Discourse, and Here We Are
Someone with a very large audience and a very unfiltered delivery took a position on one of the internet's most radioactive questions. Buckle up.
There are questions the internet circles endlessly, like a moth that knows better but cannot help itself. Who did what. Who knew. Whether a verdict, civil or cultural, was ever truly settled. This correspondent will not pretend to be surprised that someone decided to wade in anyway, on stream, in front of however many tens of thousands of people were watching at the time.
Documents, specifically a clip indexed by Mshale and reviewed by this publication, appear to show one of Kick's most-watched personalities reacting to content framed around the question of Michael Jackson's guilt or innocence. The streamer in question, a French-Canadian man with a nine-figure crypto portfolio and a casino bearing his own imprimatur, did not, allegedly, hold back. Whether the reaction was measured is a matter this correspondent leaves to the viewer. History will note only that he hit the button, the clip went up, and the discourse will do what the discourse does to all of us eventually.
