THREAD: Many recall the 2019 blunder when Dan briefly changed his main profile's picture to MJ at the pool.
He quickly removed it. Simultaneously, the pic was added to the now suspended TheRealMJStory ("RMJS") account.
Now I'll share a much less known backstory on this subject.
April 4, 2019—RMJS was created w/ a Gmail account soliciting "MJ victim stories."
April 6, 2019—Dan changed his own avatar to the MJ pic. After fans tweeted about it, he quickly replaced it.
RMJS falsely alleged fans Photoshopped Dan's page. But Google had already cached it.
April 8, 2019—A fan replies to RMJS addressed to Dan, who by this point has been obsessively raging in defense of LN, the train station exposé etc.
RMJS responds in 1st person, as Dan, about a request for interview from @Zigmanfreud: "If I had any interest I would've responded."
Introducing "AndrewMoeller"
Before the drama of Dan/RMJS spinning careless alt-account antics as conspiracy, AM spawned on Reddit—mostly taking refuge in the "No Defenders" guilter sub.
AM self-deleted his account after another "accidental Dan" mishap. I have partial archives.
For starters, AM posted a lengthy excuse for creating "a 2nd Twitter account" (RMJS) while doing all he could to distance himself from Dan and calling it a fan conspiracy.
He avoids answering why Dan may've switched to the same profile pic then back, or why he responded as Dan.
AM posted details gleaned from WR/JS that weren't part of LN or public info.
E.g., he shared specific figures of James' & wife's salaries to prove "they don't need money."
AM swiftly deleted those posts; here's a more generic one where he references salaries & parents' lawsuit.
It becomes clear through AM's posts that the origin of his research begins & ends with MJFacts w/ a dash of Maureen Orth. He mentions this in almost every post alongside "Watch LN!"
This aligns perfectly with Dan, who made strikingly similar factual errors to AM in some talks.
At one point AM discusses James as a "little boy" who testified in 94.
A user quotes the interview where Dan falsely claimed James was only 10 or 11 at that time (he was 16).
AM, suddenly resuming 1st person as Dan again, responds with: "I admitted I was wrong..."
Fascinating.
Most interestingly—in presuming AM/RMJS was a Dan sockpuppet based on known data—we can glimpse what elements he believed in as part of working into the story for LN2.
In this response to someone observing similarities of JS & MJWML he defends VG and insists the book is factual.
In another instance, AM proclaimed Michael Jacobshagen "will become a bigger issue for stans soon since he is part of a new doc. I believe him 100%."
RMJS shared an unseen photo of Jacobshagen being interviewed.
Even guilters told him to avoid him for a film—but he still might.
By far, most of AM's time was spent defending the disastrous train station lie.
Many responses echo Dan's tweets ("JS never claimed abuse ended in 92")—ignoring the lawsuits & declaration that Dan apparently still had never read.
Sometimes he expanded much further in excuses.
In AM's version of train station excuses, new & added info in excusing it included:
- The sequence "served as a way to show the size of Neverland"
- JS snapped the photos himself (post-94/95)
- JS is unlikely to address any of it
- JS never specified what station abuse was in 😂
At other points AM gives more wild excuses, including that the photos of the train station were all James had on hand, not that he really meant that building. (I wonder what other two story train station existed since 1990?)
When all else fails? Blame lies on "emotional trauma."
But my favorite excuse from AM over the lack of research into the train station before including it in the documentary, has to be:
"I also have never heard of someone checking the blueprints of a building for a documentary on sexual abuse."
Because why investigate anything?!
AM stoops as low on the barrier of fact-finding to pull in "reputable sources like Vanity Fair," including the hoax of the sex tape w/ nephew, even claiming "most of the stuff has been confirmed to be true" 😆
Note how Dan likewise shares Vanity Fair stories about MJ on Twitter.
Even as "himself" (ignoring alt theories) the acts by Dan have been unprecedented in director history.
He swapped his profile to MJ & boys, attacks "stans" (a term used constantly by AM as well), ignores photovisual evidence and concocts narratives from tabloids & his own mind.
Other actions by this self-proclaimed documentarian that I've never seen elsewhere:
- Multi-wardrobe photo shoots and cover shots, rockstar style.
- Committing perjury in a court declaration just to portray an "Emmy Winning" documentary as immaculate and without a single error.
Bonus comment from AM about the "train trolls," one of many similar:
"This is what they do with all evidence. They take it out of context, fake it and try to mislead as many people that will listen."
Good thing Dan has never done that, like from the first clip of LN onward. 🤥

Just as Dan spliced and edited recordings of the Hawaii tape and Geragos' press conference to remove context and create an alternate reality, similar deceit occurred in 2005 with media broadcasts of "voicemail" by two men seeking millions from MJ, with a shared attorney.
GMA Hype: "MJ like you've never heard before!"
First off, a clip implying MJ would guilt-beg associates for his demands: "please, please, please never let me down. I really like you, I love you."
They omitted 80% of the call—MJ was discussing charity & business collaborations.
Next up, a no-context clip in which MJ appears to demand Schaffel give him 7 million dollars ASAP.
They omitted 80% of the message—MJ spoke of a big multi-million dollar project & saw something he wanted to get. The money he speaks of was part of MJ's own associated accounts.
In 2010, a student interviewed Wade & Amanda for a college study.
Unfortunately the complete report isn't available, but the summary alone is riddled with Wade's distorted spin on reality as he attempts to justify his lack of work in years and embellishes his ties with Michael.
CLAIM: "Wade, seeing the trapped life MJ led, took himself out of Hollywood for a few years and renewed himself spiritually."
FACT: Wade & Amanda wasted years scriptwriting to no success. "I spend most of my time saying no to jobs, probably to my own demise." -Wade Robson, 2009
CLAIM: "Wade & MJ crossed paths at an early point in Wade's life, paving the way for his success as well as his almost obsessive work ethic."
FACT: MJ had begged Joy to stop working Wade so hard & let him have a childhood. Joy drove his obsessive work ethic & projects, not MJ.
2 years later, guilters still cluelessly try to justify James' train station lie as depicted from 88-90 "like when you're first dating somebody—the sexual relationship is growing."
There is no discrepancy in his affidavit & 3 amendments that "all abuse ended in 92," pre-station.
Relying on Dimond's 2014 article that James "was molested from 10 to about 14 or 15" does nothing to address the narration of LN that this occurred during the earliest part of their relationship, or how their relationship was tapering off by 1990, or how all "abuse" ended by 92.
Dan's own original excuse also tried to shift James' abuse story to 1994.
Apparently oblivious to 5 years of litigation to the contrary, his own film describing this occurring early on (between 1987 & 1990 interludes) & his own media narrative that MJ abandoned kids at puberty.
The hunt for accusers against MJ was all-encompassing. Many local, federal & international facilities pursued any leads from 93-05 via phone, mail & law enforcement tips even those by Gutierrez & Terry George.
In the end, they still only had the same few money-seeking families.
The "victim" search also included Tom Sneddon's presser in Feb. 2003—the day LWMJ aired—in which he provided two phone numbers for anyone wanting to report any crimes by MJ.
It also included multiple probes by the DCFS in the 1990s and 2000s, largely instigated by Gloria Allred.
Post-death, this search for accusers grew more relentless.
Endless tabloid tales from 2012-20 promoted by opportunists. Fake police files. False claims of $200M payoffs & 2 dozen unspecified victims that even Dimond admitted was unfounded. A media blitz & TV show.
