I knew it was shit when a bunch of neoliberal media ghouls were fawning over it and talking about how they liked the rapping. 40 years of Rap and they finally found some they liked. It had to be awful.

I always hated that overhyped liberal shit and I got so much shit for saying so when it was new, but I kept saying it anyway.
When I first watched it, it was with several of my more liberal friends, and I felt like I was taking crazy pills when said friends were talking about how innovative and brilliant Hamilton was as a masterpiece musical.
"What if white oligarchs... but black and rapping in a way that makes whitey feel safe?"
I side-eye Daveed so hard for lending his voice to that colonial whitewash
Progressively, it's both blackwashing and whitewashing at the same time!
