All musical theater is turbo lib slop and you cannot convince me otherwise.
I like Hadestown, but admittedly the revolution does fail. And we try to reason with the ruling class.
occasionally it gets coopted by fascists like that song from aladdin that the proud boys took their name from or that one from cabaret. and being coopted by fascists is about as liberal as it gets
The problem with Cabaret with regards to cooption is that Tomorrow Belongs To Me is just legitimately a nazi anthem, and a "better" one than the ones written by nazis.
It isn't written in a way that makes the nazis ridiculous. It's a song sung by nazi characters who are supposed to evoke the feelings nazis want to evoke. And so it is a musical with a scene of a bunch of proud nazis singing a nazi song celebrating revanchism and their glorious destiny standing unified and horrifying
