have you guys ever seen how ridiculous the Discourse around the mcelroys & specifically their friendship to lin miranda is

we have people out there saying that all of them are horrific racists for being friends with him, because hamilton is racist for.. being about.. the founding fathers??

nvm that it gave black actors starring roles and critical acclaim.. and is made.. by a man.. of color..........

I don't even care about hamilton, it's one of those things I got oversaturated with very fast and lost interest in because of that

but like... man could people be less transparent in how much they care about optics over actual humans

@PlanetaryKnight I've seen it almost exclusively on tumblr which... probably tells u something lol

the logic is basically "the founding fathers were racists so telling a story about them is racist" and ignores.. literally everything about the people involved or what the musical actually says

Or the good ol "talking about something is glorifying it" chestnut

@draculing
AHHH I've mostly avoided Tumblr the past few years. It just got. Wild. In exactly this kind of way. Plus gatekeepers galore in fandom ways.

But that's definitely fucking ridiculous.

@PlanetaryKnight SAME. I only caught wind of this because I went to look at the blog of someone I was in college with and see what they were up to

and I immediately regretted it because.. this...
