Man in the mirror is up there with TDCAU, but Black or white is a level below for me.

Bruh, for its era, the production in this song is ridiculously good. The beat and instrumentation as the song progresses is on another level. Michael flowed too 🔥🥇.

Yeah I’m sure “kick me, k*ke me, don’t you black or white me” is about white people and not Jews.

He's using the slur as an unfortunate synonym for suing him. He was the victim of many frivolous lawsuits at the time. Is there evidence to suggest Michael Jackson believed or promoted anti-Semitic conspiracy theories?

Michael's own words on the matter, to The New York Times, "The idea that these lyrics could be deemed objectionable is extremely hurtful to me, and misleading. The song in fact is about the pain of prejudice and hate and is a way to draw attention to social and political problems. I am the voice of the accused and the attacked. I am the voice of everyone. I am the skinhead, I am the Jew, I am the black man, I am the white man. I am not the one who was attacking. It is about the injustices to young people and how the system can wrongfully accuse them. I am angry and outraged that I could be so misinterpreted." (https://www.nytimes.com/1995/06/15/arts/in-new-lyrics-jackson-uses-slurs.html?scp=11&sq=Michael+Jackson+-+HIStory&st=cse)
