I'll be honest, Les Miserables absolutely killed me. Fucking weeping. Played me like a fucking fiddle. That even happened with I Am Sam. Stuff makes me cry. That's the kind of man I am. But I will face God and walk backward into Hell before I ever even consider shedding one mole of tears over fucking Hamilton.
Art should move us.
Hamilton was staggeringly lowkey racist with its "let's portray the slaver oligarchs as black" whitewashing cynicism. The only tears I could shed over that were how accepted that pile of liberal shit was.
Don't ever watch Miss Saigon. Amazing the creators of Les Mis which almost has a radical politics went to imperial apologia.
