>>372723The Hamilton fandom (from general fans to shippers) has aged poorly more than any other fandom community. I think it originated from a period of american liberal optimism that no longer exists. Currently everyone (and I mean everyone) really despises America, from hyper wokies, moderates, and even the right. so a glorified fan-fiction that portrays america in a positive light is not likely to be popular today. The cope from the remainder fans is simply accepting that the characters from the musical are basically OCs(picrel is fanon Hamilton meeting the real Hamilton). The only sub-section community that remains genuine is the subreddit, but that's mainly due to artificial means thanks to the moderators

>>372729Bahaha, Naporwave. That's great. I know we've had a few Napoleonfags over the years, were you one of the original ones? Was there a specific Napoleon moment that turned you into a Napoleonfag?
>>372734Was the musical actually any good? From both a historic or entertainment basis. I think I watched the first thirty minutes, but I couldn't be bothered to finish it. I completely agree with your sentiment though. It's insane how much things have changed from 2015 to now. Something about the way that musical is presented has not aged very well to resonate with the times.
On the contrary, Stephen Sondheim's Assassins has aged quite well in my opinionI personally don't mind Hamilton fujos though lol. I love when women can be cringe and free.

i became a napoleonfag by accident. i'm forst and foremost a nelsonfag, have been since i was a kid, but before i learned how to read english, it was very hard to find stuff about him in my native language (french) and most of it was in books about the napoleonic era jn general. so i eded up gradualy warming up to naps. i like him as hotshot young general bonaparte more than the flabby ol' emperor tho
>>372734i don't rly consider hamilton fans historyfags per se because the hamilton characters may as well be OCs and most fans donnt actually gaf about the actual 18th century alexander hamilton, only the musical guy. but im biased bc i don't care for musicals and i hate lin manuel miranda

There's very little information about my husbando out there so as a way to feel closer to him I've been trying to learn more about the time period he lived in, watching shows set in that era, etc. Sadly there are no colored photos of him, so I try to look at what other people wore in that era and try to imagine what his clothes would have looked like (it's not hard because there's only one outfit to imagine- he only owned one suit lol). The hardest part is trying to imagine his voice though. Absolutely no way in hell that I'd be able to guess what he sounded like and I can't find any descriptions from others of what he sounded like either.

>>382268>>382296I posted about him earlier in the thread so I hope I'm not being too repetitive, but it's Leon Czolgosz who assassinated William McKinley in 1901. There are only a handful of pictures of him that exist and there's so little information about him (they executed him pretty shortly after the assassination), but I am very endeared toward what I do know. I've been trying to read and learn more about the Gilded Age since that was the era he grew up in. Typical quiet, loner type who was depressed and didn't want to work (relatable). He became enamored with anarchy after hearing a speech given by Emma Goldman, so she introduced him to some of her friends in hopes he would join the cause. He ended up being such a sperg about it that they thought he was a spy sent from the government and they posted a warning ad about him in their magazine kek. I could go on and on about him honestly.

>>382377All suffragette means is someone who sought out women's suffrage through violent/militant means. Plenty of them were racists, imperialists, fascists, did not care much for feminism outside of getting the vote, etc. etc., including the one you're caping for. A lot of "good" people in history were not very "good" in many other aspects, which is why it's dumb to moralfag in a history thread.
