to be fair, they also talked about other musicals i didnt care about, but I wasn’t feeling it, lmao. i would have been happy with literally any other topic, but i fall asleep during this shit, cant help it
No need to delete it. I put mine back up. I’m just having a weird day and was getting in my head about coming off as annoying.
I also got very into Hamilton for a while, to the point where I was writing out maps of various motifs that came up and itemizing where they were and what that did to the meaning. I think my window into Hamilton was through neurodivergence, of people looking at you like you’re crazy and being simultaneously condescending about your forwardness and obsessiveness but also in awe of a lot of your output and endurance. That said, I keep finding examples of ways that perspective falls short, so I appreciate you being sincere and sharing that.
youre not annoying I promise! do you know how refreshing it is to be able to take a critical look at hamilton with another leftist whos actually willing to analyze its themes??? youre wonderful, never change.

yes yes yes!!! a 100% see that. in fact
Sir, I heard your name at Princeton, I was seeking an accelerated course of study
When I got sort of out of sorts with a buddy of yours
I may have punched him
It’s a blur, sir
He handles the financials?
You punched the bursar?
Yes! I wanted to do what you did, graduate in two, then join the revolution
He looked at me like I was stupid, I’m not stupid
So how’d you do it? How’d you graduate so fast?
It was my parents’ dying wish before they passed
You’re an orphan? Of course!
I’m an orphan, God, I wish there was a war
Then we could prove that we’re worth more than anyone bargained for
was basically me at that age. everyone underestimating you, telling you your insane. all you want is a chance to prove yourself. i fucking get it. anyway have a great day comrade. and yea some people on here based their senses of identity on being a contrarian who hates ANYTHING popular. but those people are miserable and you should pity them. being able to talk about popular things with sincerity while offering leftist critiques makes you a better leftist not worse.
