Huh? While I do agree thatThe Band's Visitis a near sure bet for Best Musical, we must've been watching two completely different shows."
Do you disagree thatSpongeBobhas a thin plot and a disjointed score? Don't ge
Calling a racist a racist isn't a personal attack, nor is it a discussion ender. Just like when you call water wet, and a conversation can continue. Racists are racists. And perpetuating racist ideas is still, wait for it...racist.
He'll come back later or tomorrow, with a long and drawn out monologue about how wrong and racist WE are. Because we don't express our sentiments on the poor white people of this world.
Also, how can someone type "black privilege" with a straight face?

Plus I truly dislike Feinstein’s laziness with Charlie in Act 2, with the stress and anger that s
BroadwayStar4 said: "Commercial" and "Money" are probably the lamest excuses in the whole world."
Huh? Broadway is literally a commercial enterprise. Money is first and foremost on the minds of producers and investors alike. I want representation for LGBT as much as the next person, but let's not pretend that money is not extremely important on Broadway.
