A hip-hop themed musical about the life of Alexander Hamilton that presents it as the tale of a plucky immigrant from the Caribbean coming up to take America by storm
It's a musical glorifying the American founders, Alexander Hamilton in particular. And it's even more bizarre because most of the historical people who were white slave owners are usually played by black and brown people. It's truly weird and liberals adore it.
I think Hamilton is a reflection of the anti populist attitudes held by the kind of people who run the Democratic Party today. They are elitist technocrats who are antidemocratic, anti immigrant, and most importantly pro finance, like the real Hamilton was. To make these unpopular policies legitimate they present the policies with a brown face. The musical is the perfect metaphor for that. I mean, this is a guy who in reality wanted America to be an elective monarchy and called the people a "great beast." Someone who was hated by the same New Dealers that libs want to forget ever existed. If you told FDR that 80 years after his time, the people running his party we're celebrating the legacy of a man who was the political rival to Thomas Jefferson: a man Roosevelt considered to be one of the founders of the Democratic Party; he'd be greatly confounded.
