um jew me is a common saying now, so I would not say it is antisemitism, and I hear jews in my brother in laws family who are jewish, say it often as itiom type phrase when they feel someone is cheated them or they got a good deal and jewed the merchant down on a good deal.
If I go buy somethng from someone like a car dealer, and I work him down in price I might say I jewed him down.
If someone cheats me out of alot of money I might say I got jewed, Now this is not really harming jews and jews are the ones who made up that slogan and use it more then anyone else according to my brother in law and his family.
And it's not really racist when the term simply means to cheat someone or to be cheated, Jews may get angry about it because they are often accused of hording money and being cheap and cheating others, which is not true either.
The term was ment in that song as a protest from Micheal Jackson about how he was sued for nothing other then spending some time with a kid as a celebrity at his neverland ranch, then to get rich the kids family cooked up some scheme to cheat him out of several million dollars, It is obvious that the whole thing was a set up on Micheal Jackson who is basically a kid him self at heart and has done a shit load of humanitarian work and donations, and was never accused of such things in his early years ever.
when he said kick me kick me jew me he ment the systems actions toward him in court and the family of that child that lied and and coached thier kid to lie in court to get money out of him even if it ment tarnishing Michael's reputation and leading people to think he was a child molester.
Yes Micheal Jackson is strange in a bat man joker kind of way in the way he presents himself with all his run away surgical procedures and heavy makeup he wears, and he lived a very sheltered life and had people making schedules for him his whole life where to be what to wear, waht to say, waht to sing, how he was to dance, what to eat, when to sleep ect ect ect.
He really had no life of his own or freedom, So it is not hard to see why he may have wanted to invite some guests over to never land ranch.
And it's not that odd or strange for a celebrity to invite kids over, sports celebrity's do it all the time, they go to functions or even create functions for kids.
I'm with Janet Jackson on this one, Not only do I believe MJ is inocent, I also believe he is not an anti jew biggot or racist.
Micheal Jackson was a hard worker, a humanitarian and a very meek mild mannered and gental man, with the heart of a child.
So get over it DPhoadly
