Is this an admission that you are supportive of the glorification of slave owners, or? Not sure I understand what point youre clumsily attempting to make.

people just like a well done musical, I guess.

I wonder if Lin Manuel Miranda could make a popular musical centered around Hitler.

Shit was great. Watched it expecting to hate it cause I dislike musicals in general but it ended up being fantastic. Still regularly listening to some of the songs.

The music was very good. I listened to the album with my friends band on a road trip.

Still

And as far as a musical about Hitler, if Taika Waititi could make a dark comedy about him Miranda could probably do a musical.

I think it has a lot of bops. Sucks that it's glorifying slave owners though. Waste of bops. Prefer In the Heights, but the movie was significantly worse.

Nobody ever comments on how every important woman in the story wants to fuck Hamilton and LMM decided to cast himself.

Real jabroni move tbh

I always saw that as coincidental as he cast himself in his previous show too. And the notion that those three women wanted to fuck Hamilton is supported a bit in documents. Well two of them is confirmed, the third has at least a bit of purchase. But there's definitely something to be said of the fact that those three are the only women important to the story. And their only importance is that they wanted to fuck Hamilton.

Marenda has recently come out and apologized for his glorifaction of Hamilton who was a slave owner. It was really a different time just a few years ago...

That's big of him. Did he vow to stop all Hamilton shows as well, so as to not keep glorifying?

It worked for Waititi because the Hitler was just a kid's imaginary friend and not the "real" Hitler. Plus, the imaginary Hitler was a complete idiot so it wasn't exactly praising him like Hamilton...

It worked for Waititi because the man is a reverse monkey's paw.

You give him the shittiest idea you can imagine and he morphs it into something wondrous.

Yeah, that last point is more what I was getting at. Although I did read that there's no actual evidence Angelica fancied Hamilton. If I'm wrong about that, my research misled me.

As far as I gathered, there's nothing conclusive apart from the fact that they were close, and you could infer things. Nothing near it being a historical fact or anything. And of course Miranda changed a lot of details and circumstances to make it more like a love story.
