i wish there could have been more exposition on their potential relationship in the play, but alas!

it would be nice to have seen their very real sexualities acknowledged but ah well

I KNOW right?  Though granted, I always point out to people that pretty much EVERY time the two of them are on stage together, they've almost ALWAYS got their hands on each other in some way. xDDD

it might have been a territory lin didn't feel comfortable stepping into w/out being LGBTQA+ himself, which is cool, i can respect that

he did say outside of the musical that his interpretation of ham was definitely bi tho so there's that!

Pretty sure NEITHER Hamilton nor Laurens personally owned slaves.  Laurens' family were slave owners, but John himself was passionately against it.  
These precious bois are safe.  Everyone else can go die in my judgement zone. xD

your "precious bois" are old dead white men who founded the usa on values of slavery, racism, and dehumanization of minorities.

My friend, I'd rather not engage in this discussion further.  It would seem that you are one that sees a number of people with a certain mindset, and thus come to assume that every last person around them thinks the same exact way.  Yes, many of our past were god damn twisted and disgusting in their beliefs.  But we can't change the past.  While we may not AGREE with those who came before, we can at least appreciate the good they managed to do while alive.

i am..... aware

all the founding fathers were racist walnuts (although granted john laurens was historically a staunch abolitionist and i don't actually know if alexander ever owned slaves given his poor background. idk about eliza's family either.) but this is v specifically the play interpretations

the fact that the entire point of the play is humanizing slave owners and racists

pretty much any media surrounding the founding fathers and america's foundings are going to end up humanizing some pretty shitty people. america is built on murder, exploitation, racism, etc, and i can enjoy the play while also being aware of that

what i instead like to focus on w/the play is how lin-manuel miranda specifically brought on all actors/actresses of color

or how the cast collectively verbally beat down mike pence after a performance

american history already humanizes & romanticizes the way it was founded. we didn't need a play to keep people thinking that george washington was totally a great guy. but the play itself has done physical, actual good, and idk what else i can really say about that
