🗣️ DISCUSSION 💬
Most of these will not actually get under their skin. I'm sorry, but they just won't. If you're actually looking to not just start a heated argument, but actually make them pause and guaranteed put them on the awkward, unsure defensive from jump, you only need one:
Isn't it weird how in Hamilton, only Thomas Jefferson owns slaves, and Hamilton's lifelong practice of buying, selling, and renting slaves is completely absent [even from the cut song that would have mentioned how Washington owned slaves]?
Liberals fucking love their Hamilton and cannot conceive of it being racist. Don't say it's racist because it puts non-white actors in white roles, that will only lead to an argument that goes nowhere and exhausts everyone else. Surprise them instead.
Bonus follow-ups: Isn't it shitty to reduce Jefferson's most famous rape victim to a silent chorus role - along with every other slave in the musical? Doesn't the musical kind of imply that the best black people in America can aspire to is cosplaying human traffickers, telling their story, instead of singing their own?
[The musical literally implies that Hamilton is an abolitionist in one scene, and then just a couple scenes later he dances with his wife who is wearing a big beautiful dress which in reality was placed on her by slaves. The musical lists multiple things he bought and sold as a kid manning a trading post - humans are not one of them. Brought to you by Disney.]
