So, I guess sort of like Hamilton, but with Lenin, Trotsky, and Stalin.

This idea is either brilliant or incredibly terrible. You be the judge.

Discuss.

Ask the tiktok kids to do it. They've already done a musical of Ratatouille, Avatar the Last Airbender, and having a fight with your SO in the grocery store.

All the libs would sympathize with trotsky the most and none of the newly radicalized viewers will be in the same party

So many leftists have internalized the Liberal myth of Trotsky (he's just like Snowball from the farm animal book!!!), and in contrarianism now have an equally inaccurate view of the man. One formed almost entirely by memes, with no examination of his actual actions, and thought.

Like yeah, the guy who: led the Red army in the Russian Civil War, and supported the Chinese Communists when the Party (including Stalin) backed the Kuomintang) must've just been a huge Lib all that time.

Read "The Revolution Betrayed", its good and Trotsky's has only been vindicated in his belief that the USSR would fall as a result of a Capitalistic restoration led by the Bureaucracy.

Just because some shitty parties call themselves "Trotskyist" doesn't mean the man was bad, Euro-Communism was led by shitty parties who called themselves Marxist.

I had a dream where I wrote a musical about Jeff bezos. The lead actor descended onto the stage via delivery drones.

I have very vivid dreams when I'm on a drink.

Yeah its called the East is Red, except its the Chinese Revolution and in Chinese. It was a grand state-funded thing not achievable by private entities.

Would the Russian government ever fund something like this? Seems like maybe a good way to foster positive views of Russians and Russian history.

Russian government's position can be summarised as "Lenin bad, Stalin good" for obvious reasons. They financed an expensive movie about the Decemberist revolt which took liberties to portray revolutionaries as misguided idealists at best.

If you made the Hamilton version of the October Rev, the libs would make Kerensky the hero

They also would probably make Nicky a tragic hero who truly cared for his people and wanted to do good but just wasn't up to the job.
