“Like Hamilton!” “Not like that.” 💀💀💀

[@williamjohnson4417]

“Hamilton” aka let’s make the most monarchist/elitist of Americas founding fathers, and make a musical tricking them into thinking he was a man of the people. “But guys he was born poor, it doesn’t matter he went on to marry one of the richest women in the US then spent the rest of his political life catering to the ultra wealthy” Go read a real history book, written by an actual historian not that rag of bs propaganda they based the musical on. People act like Hamilton was progressive, he wasn’t, funnily enough the man who was actually a progressive was Burr, who unlike Hamilton believed in equal rights for women, emancipation, and was (unlike Hamilton) was willing to have his bank give loans to the middle class and not only cater to the ultra wealthy. Let’s put it this way, if Hamilton saw a modern university with minorities and women learning along side white men he would be rolling in his grave, if Burr saw the same he would be so proud of the nation’s progress.

[@josieardagna5889]

Yikes I'm in Hamilton 😆 🤣

Alexander Hamilton, it's a musical about the founding father. It was made by Lin Manuel Miranda.

[@joshuamatkin8306]

Drake got what he deserved and is banned from the west coast. He crossed the line in pushups, insinuating Whitney slept with the bodyguard. And than he took it further saying Dave Free slept with her and one of Kendrick’s children is his. What’s more surprising is Drake has all these videos texting and than hanging out with minors, he should’ve been labeled a groomer a long time ago.
