Hamilton live thread -- 8PM EST

https://disneyplus.com

We're watching Hamilton, press play at 8pm. No pausing, hold it in or wet yourself.

But AIDS, I'm too racist to enjoy Hamilton.

Racists will enjoy Hamilton the most, it's a contemporary minstrel show cf. The Wiz. It's not a palette swap, it's Black 1776. The cabinet debates are rap battles, the duel at the end is based on a Biggie Smalls song. The premise is that, to the British elite, the Americans were a bunch of BIPOCs. The international reputation of the US was like Liberia, a hearty chuckle and amusement that 'they're still going ahead with that.'

But AIDS, it's going to be boring.

It's Friday evening and you're watching musicals with a bunch of fat old men. Participating in the comment section will be the most social experience you've had all year.

But AIDS, I hate centralized federal government and believe more powers should be devolved to the states or the people.

Thomas Jefferson is the best character, he's :!marseygigachad: personified.

But AIDS, won't it all be white guilt and slavery bullshit?

They hint at slavery once and otherwise don't mention race. The only racial commentary is that King George III is the only white person in the show.

This musical fricking sucks. I listen to the 40 minutes of good songs and forget about all the garbage. Please stick around so we can discuss Thomas Jefferson.

I forgot how slow this starts, this was a bad idea for a thread. Keep watching anyway, it gets fun pretty soon.

This would have worked better on something like Groomercord but I only frick adults.

They spend too much time on Angelica's being obsessed with Hamilton, especially because he's played by LMM.

George III is one of my favorite parts, he has that Ryan Murphy sassy-but-extremely-powerful cute twink energy.

I bought it for my sister as a gift, her family thinks I'm a hero and I get classic Simpsons.

It feels like a middle school textbook in being a happy little story about the Revolution. It's interesting how they barely justify the American motivation for rebellion, it's a story of ambitious men seeing a chance at greatness (gussy).

Also I'm on one of those self-destructive, drug-abusing downward spirals so if I'm still in the bathroom getting high at 8pm just start without me.

(people who can't figure out timezones, 8pm EST is the hour it's about to be)

Now first and foremost I'd like to make it clear that I DO NOT exactly “like” President Biden or live in the US, but I tolerate him because I know he is the current most logical and best working option for President. But for frick's sake I swear Trump supporters must keep fricking bashing their heads with a hammer each day to be so stupid and braindead as to spread their toxic hate on every single fricking Biden and/or Democrat video they see. I can't really be arsed to like the videos myself but they can sure as frick be arsed to dislike them. The like to dislike ratio on White House videos is fricking tremendous. If they allowed comments who fricking knows what disgusting rightie Nazi shit might be there. Every comment like it should be DELETED. This fricking extends to the current cabinet as for example Dr Rachel Levine has been receiving disgusting transphobic comments on her videos. The sight of this shit just fricking makes my blood FRICKING BOIL. If I could I'd fricking sort these c*nts out myself one by one. I bet I fricking could. They're all fricking weaklings anyway. Weak enough to fricking dislike bomb their own good President. Fricking twats.
