What are you talking about? I attacked nobody.

Now my turn. Attacking people for daring to question Uncle Sam. Expecting us to live like it's 1776. What political party does that sound like? Please tell me.


Sick, pathetic POS

You literally come on here and say that anyone who doesn't conform to your way of thinking is racist, and dystorying the world. 
 

I guess the off topic board of a Broadway message board is the only place where you can express yourself. 
 

It's sad. 
 

I hope you actually do something with your life other than repeating chronically online talking points. 
 

Because believe whatever point you think you are trying to prove. 
 

It ain't working.

If you're honoring individuals who claimed to own human beings, you're tragically mistaken, and you're very much in line with the White revanchist spirit of Trumpism.

Defending any slave-"owner" is not a defensible position in 2023. It's the unmistakable mark of a White supremacist.

So I guess y'all both agree that all productions of Hamilton need to be immediately closed, and never performed again? 
 

Calling me a white supremacist because I don’t think that George Washington should be taken off of the one dollar bill? 
 

A real evangelical spewing the views of the chronically online. Aren’t as pure as us and our views. We condemn the!

Speaking for myself, no - for at least three reasons:

(1) I think the concept of Hamilton implies a strong critique of the characters involved. I don't come away with any sense that Jefferson or Washington were great people. I do think it's a weakness of the show that it doesn't address slavery more directly.

(2) Even if this weren't the case, speech shouldn't be censored by anyone's fiat, including my own. I wouldn't want the government to shut down even an explicitly White supremacist piece of theater. I trust that its impact would be negligible in a halfway rational society.

(3) Even in the case of properties that we all recognize as White supremacist, or otherwise toxic, there may be some value in watching or studying them (viz. Birth of a Nation or Triumph of the Will).

Let me ask you this: can you honestly not think of quite a few non-slave-"owning" people who deserve it more?

Sure.
 

My problem is this argument that changing the face of the $1 doesn't fix the problem. 
 

Or even a problem. 
 

George Washington is no longer on our money. 
and?

Was this what people asked for? Did the supply housing or healthcare or education? 
Or did it make a small sect of people FEEL like they did something?

I respect your point there.

Regarding healthcare, you know we could have been part of the NHS, were it not for... smiley

I don't remember ever saying that removing George Washington from the dollar bill would solve all the world's problems. Of course it would not. What it would do is send a powerful signal that racism is not okay, is not forgiveable, and will not be forgotten.

A substantial amount of citizens will no longer need to demean their integrity on a daily basis. This is not nothing.

We can work on housing and health too, it is possible to do both.

It's the 20th anniversary of the start of the Iraq War. What unnecessary devastation and tragedy.

A jury has voted to indict 45. Let's hope he pays for the rest of this crimes too.

Reagan was awful with the AIDS crisis and was secretly known to be anti-LGBT. Was never a fan of Clinton and the Bushes caused such chaos and the war in Afghanistan and Iraq. Thankful for Obama's 8 years. Trump has derailed this country so badly, we need a DEM President long-term to clean up his mess.


A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Given the fallout from this guy, I'd say no. Dump tried to cause an insurrection and I think I'm dead and watching a bad movie.
