Do you want to feel good about American mythology and the inherent moral superiority of the American cause, but you half way paid attention in history class or your kids keep sharing what they've learned? Here's some dancing black people telling you that it was actually great, and modern America has atoned for its past and now anyone can portray the racist founders and brush aside their problematic aspects

In no way does Hamilton ever imply that America has atoned for it's past. It basically just treats every historical figure like a fictional character

the act of america continuing to exist and producing something like hamilton is an atonement, the affirmation that the founding fathers believed in the five elements of hip-hop

as someone who was raised by musical theater people, it is still really funny that 1776 has a song about slavery and Hamilton doesn't

it would be awesome if libs were as obsessed with Cats as they are with Hamilton, like if they brought Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat to the inauguration

definitely a better musical, anyway

In The Heights does not accurately represent the racial tensions of early 2000's neighborhoods in NYC, nor the blackout of 2003. Additionally it encourages gambling

It is kind of funny in retrospect that my mom spent the 90s obsessed with a musical that has a whole song about the colors of the main characters' anarchocommunist flags and went on to vote for Hillary and Biden and once argued to me against student debt forgiveness because she feels bad for parents that paid for their kids' college
