    Wow cool a brown person singing a song to make a slaver look sympathetic. wow-cool-robot

    It's beyond parody and jokerfying.

      I'm guessing that marginalised people making media calling white men OK is a pretty successful grift industry.

        Hence in the other thread, I said I wish it was safer to date as a leftist. I'm Black and sometimes the best I can get for a long time is "enjoyed Hamilton"

          Dammit, if people used Hamilton on me because of my race, I'd adventure-time

            I have a very crazy story about a liberal coworker who was obsessed with Hamilton. I have never seen the show and at this point I refuse to. I'd rather read X-Men comics about queer polycules on Mars.

              I had a lib younger friend who was super into it. This was at the very beginning and I had no preconceived ideas about the show. We did a road trip once, and she played it on the car stereo. I heard a few of the songs and I was totally turned off by the style and by what it was saying.

                LMM's musical style is so corny it hurts. It's always really obvious when his work comes up in the newer Disney movies.

                I had a white woman play Beyoncé's new album on a road trip a few months ago. You have my sympathy.
