The American Dream
As it now seems terribly ironic exclamation of the American president (Ronald Reagan) when he received Mr. Jackson, then at the height of his glory: "You are the best incarnation of the American dream! Ironic and tragic when one considers the course and especially at the end of the "king of pop. Sadness at its end
This trajectory seems to be colored, and even stigmatized, with a sadness continues, even profoundly poignant, like this young man died in a state almost inhuman: without hair, with countless scars respond to dozens of plastic operations The skeletal body weighing less than fifty pounds, without a part of the nose, covered in bruises and injuries due to falls and eating cocktail of analgesics (pain to cure what?). Sadness that becomes even more burdensome by the machine to handle his death machine highly profitable for some.
Also sadness of his situation
From child beaten to fly children to adult living reclu, man billionaire riddled with debts and loses his house, musician adulated career in decline, living surrounded by teddy bear, soiled by lawsuits the global impact (he escaped conviction by a team of several excellent lawyers, which, since he openly displayed the desire to share his bed with children, strangers, would probably hardly imaginable for a citizen more difficult and less known).
Sadness finally his false pretenses that seem to go and even define the life of singer
Because that white man is a black face disfigured not appear for what it is, this kid is an adult, the father is not the father of her children, this heavily disguised man is definitely not a homosexual, and It even ensures never having made of plastic operations. Surrounded by a media circus, the star is behind countless quirks all the more pathetic than the other. The only true thing in his history seems to be his talent, and then, something we talk much, and that the music industry tried to suppress by all means anger.
His death was neither an isolated nor trivial coincidence: it is probably the result of harassment by powerful systems that were first played in his favor, then against him. To find the media system (which requires shows to survive and who loves to devour those who feed), the medical power that seems to hard on him and systematically abused him in order to prepare for this final race of concerts in the stands like an animal with drugs and finally the financial system, which grants huge loans and then the pressure continues for a refund.
But the sadness of Michael Jackson is primarily sadness structural core of the famous American dream
This, despite appearances, is deeply tinged with sadness from beginning: it is primarily based on a deep sadness and even despair - the status of departure. Want to pursue this dream, he should just start from scratch, start very low, drawn up by a magnetic hope, so powerful that it makes up in its promise, where we want to leave. His arrival also hides as much as the rude and infantile aspect of this dream: it just happens when we achieve "successful", ie when we become rich or famous or both. But we believe that success (to say nothing of the millions who "fail", or the price that was paid for this success) as if it were a fixed and unchanging image or a word-sesame that cures all ills. Unfortunately, obtaining a harmonious and meaningful life is not that simple - and it is impossible to attain any happiness without developing a single component of life.
Moreover, satisfaction of this "dream" is often lie lines of greed, aggression and narcissism compounded, or use of any means possible - which shows his character even more dissatisfied and sad. It will get there only to support his own ego and do not care that his own image. However, it is reasonable to say that there is fullness that relational.
That is why we must not forget the countless figures of sadness in American culture (think of literature and film), these lonely figures uprooted and wandering in pursuit of the "dream" and whose stars turned in tatters does a human form, certainly the most spectacularly sad, sad but not less than millions of others, always anonymous.
