Y'all remember when Lin Manuel Miranda wrote a musical where a white cop sets up a Hispanic boy with a good record and zero experience with drugs to be caught with marijuana when trying to win her over because she asks and manipulated him into giving it to her? And how we’re supposed to feel sorry for this woman because she regrets tricking and ruining a child’s life and college admission just because she sings that she’s sorry? How people ate that shit up because it was the shortest play in Broadway? And y'all are still excited to give this man and Disney your money and would die on a hill defending why a musical about white slave owners is good and revolutionary actually?

Yikes.

Miaranda doesn’t care about POC, immigrants, or how his politics impact them. He isn’t a poor Hispanic man who made it big with hard work and an example of the American Dream.

He’s a rick kid from an influential family capitalizing on the spectacle of inclusive and diverse theater while making it as palatable as possible to white, brainrot audiences.
