Talk:The Haunting of Lin-Manuel Miranda

CounterPunch removal

@David Gerard:: You removed background information about Reed's initial article for reasons unknown. It's not cited to CounterPunch, it mentions that he wrote an article about Hamilton for CounterPunch, but the actual reference on the page for Reed's article is the New Yorker. I just don't see how this is an unaccepted use of a deprecated source. The name of the article and where it was published is vital information when mentioning that someone wrote an article, hence why The New Yorker included it. I have restored the reference, please give a rationale here if you want to restore it RoseCherry64 (talk) 11:27, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Hopepunk?

The article states, "but rather to use him as a way of mirroring our hopepunk society, seduced so quickly by easy answers to difficult questions," which left me scratching my head because it was a phrase I had never heard before. Is this OR? It seemed a denunciation, that hopepunk was something negative. Except, when I googled the term, the first hit states, "Works in the hopepunk subgenre are about characters fighting for positive change, radical kindness, and communal responses to challenges." I would point out that this comes from our own article on Hopepunk. So is the author of this article thinking that they're using the term ironically? This feels like a weasel word.
