  1. It's overrated
  2. You mean you wouldn't cast the entire offensive line of the Baltimore Ravens to play the founding fathers fam? Sounding a little discriminatory there.
  3. The left has this retarded idea that if POC don't see POC in roles it's excluding. So even in a play full of figures the left brings up were White men who owned slaves 24/7 they still can't depict them all as White. This is a projection because liberals always have to feel like something is about them and they'll complain if they aren't pandered to. Like when they complain a show or sketch doesn't go woke enough or the like. There's plenty of POC that simply do not care and enjoy something without a show going on some racist assumption that they'd only like so-and-so because they are poc.

But I mean you can make a play however you want, but lmao it is funny how hard they try. It's like a ghetto alternate universe America and a Boondocks episode where Charlie Murphy is voicing Thomas Jefferson or some shit. There's comedic value to that alone tbh but it would be funnier if they didn't take it so damn seriously.

Thank you for this response. I have been curious about this play for ages but never had the stomach to watch it because I don’t support the bastardization of our history. This is a perfect summary.

I know people who love musicals and I know people who love cringey left wing propaganda. It’s the latter group who loved Hamilton.

I guarantee at least half the people who saw it thought it was dumb. But if you ask them if they liked it their brain will interpret it as “are you racist?” and therefore the only response they can give is to enthusiastically express support for it

There are honestly some good moments in Hamilton. To the point where it wouldn’t be woke enough and NEVER would have happened today. Listen to The Room Where it Happens. It’s so apropos to what we are dealing with in this election. But no it’s not completely historically accurate and the POC thing is Ok but they exclude whites. Which is just weird.

So it's in blackface. The new minstrel theater.

I'm kinda bummed on some level that covid wasn't actually anything serious because it would take out a lot of idiots
