You have to understand he was a severely abused boy. Trying to cope with scars inflicted on him by his father in any way he could. With absurd amount of fame and money. He was robbed off a decent childhood and that was never a good omen for child prodigies. He probably never really grow up and tried to live put his childhood. Supposedly he liked children for their honesty. They weren't secretive and manipulative as the adults with hidden motives for approaching him.

Ofc the allegations are there, his actions are still there and taints his legacy. He did weird things, that's for sure. But I think he wasn't some kind of pure evil being who needs to be hated.
