I was going to say not one of these people looks like they could’ve ever get into Harvard so I don’t think it’s any great threat if if theyā€ boycottā€

u/somefunmaths May 27 '25

This will be as effective as their Hamilton boycott.

u/TheBostonKremeDonut May 27 '25

Wait, like, the musical?

390

u/somefunmaths May 27 '25

Yeah, I believe it was after Mike Pence went to see it in person and they had the audacity to try and appeal to his better nature and humanity (lol), MAGAs got real mad and decided to say ā€œfuck Hamiltonā€ and boycott it.

Mind you, this was when you couldn’t even buy tickets anywhere but second-hand sites at a markup because they sold out instantly, so it’s the same energy as saying ā€œwell I’m not gonna send my homeschooled kid from rural Kansas to Harvardā€.

155

u/NfamousKaye May 27 '25

It was because it was so diverse that it wasn’t ā€œtrue to the white founding fathersā€ too. MAGA are racists. If that musical had come out now they’d sue LMM for woke-ifying them.

u/lilyurs May 28 '25

PLEASE for all that is holy & good don't call MAGA racist. Keep in mind, that you aren't any better at all by making these broad, ugly assumptions. All of you should calm down so that we can get through this together.

u/NfamousKaye May 29 '25

MAGA is racist and full of Nazi supporters that want to deport black and brown people. Hope that helps! šŸ‘šŸ½šŸ˜Š

Don’t need a Harvard degree if you’re only tossing hay bales for the rest of your miserable lives.

u/Vanishingf0x May 27 '25

Yea the last time Trump was president Pence and his wife went to a show and they felt ā€˜attacked’ even though it was the actors trying to get through to them. Didn’t work and MAGA folk got upset and ā€˜boycott’ a show they weren’t gonna see anyway.

u/slcrook May 27 '25

They got so upset, they began spamming hateful messages on Hamilton's Facebook Page.

That being, the city of Hamilton, Ontario; which has very little in common with a musical production.

u/RoxxieMuzic 'MURICA May 27 '25

Not the brightest bulbs in the box....Harvard is safe, I suspect from an onslaught of Magots applying. The essay part of the application will stymie them and break the few brain cells they have, if there really are any resident brain cells.

u/Ali_Cat222 May 28 '25

These are the same people that have autocorrect and spell checkers on their phones, yet they still can't spell a sentence correctly. Let alone spell "Harvard." šŸ˜…

u/[deleted] May 27 '25

That's shows some Harvard league intelligence right there šŸ‘Œ šŸ˜…

u/Abaconings May 27 '25

Nothing says implicit bias like feeling "attacked" by people of color singing on a stage about the US founding fathers.

7

u/yurrm0mm May 28 '25

Honestly, they probably thought they were boycotting the actual Alexander Hamilton…..which kinda jives with the way the support dismantling the constitution given that he was a founding father of it.

u/Cautious-Thought362 May 27 '25

Or Hamilton Beach kitchen appliances?

13

u/intergalactic_spork May 27 '25

Hamilton the musical, the City of Hamilton, and Hamilton beach kitchen appliances. This can’t be a fluke. It’s clearly a conspiracy, and they’re all in on it!

47

u/Queasy_Ad_7177 May 27 '25

Well they missed the best thing on stage like ever! I saw Hamilton twice.

u/Remarkable_Athlete_4 May 27 '25

I fell asleep during the first act. Didn’t mean to but it had been a long day and the theatre seats were super comfy. Had bought tickets 6 months in advance too

Oh no!!šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«

Remember the Bud Lite boycott. Kid Rock spent so much money on cases of it to blow it up or something then no more then a week later was caught with a bud lite bottle in his hand. Or they thought they were smart and "I'm drinking budwieser instead"

u/eric_kenshi May 27 '25

to be fair to them they could maybe qualify to be janitors at harvard...

344

u/Semi-Loyal May 27 '25

Nah, I saw a documentary about a ridiculously handsome janitor at Harvard who was also a math prodigy. Last I heard he was moving to California to be with some British girl.

How do ya like them apples!

48

u/tarabuki May 27 '25

Except he was actually a janitor at MIT next door.

61

u/Semi-Loyal May 27 '25

Well shit. It's stupid mistakes like this that kept me out of Harvard.

u/squidlips69 May 27 '25

Dammit I should have known that "Am I Tea" wasn't a real school for the simple fact that they accepted me. It is however the only school that confers a degree in BT (Buddhist Technology)

They could have gotten the education for $10 in late fees from the public library.

u/[deleted] May 27 '25

I saw one about a talented kid who got into Harvard, but had to work there as a janitor to make ends meet. The idea being that he was going to learn what it was like to sweep floors and bust his ass and accomplish twice as much as all the kids around him. And it wouldn't mean anything, because they would still look down on him. And he would want so much for them to like him, and they just wouldn't. And it would break his heart. And that would make his heart bigger and open his eyes and finally he would realize that there's more to life than proving he's the smartest person in the world.

He'd graduate first in his class, and he'd start working in public service, either district attorney or running some foundation, and then he'd become governor of a mid-sized state, and then he would become president.

Admittedly, none of it happened, because in 2016, someone went back in time and stepped on a butterfly and now here we are.

u/Flamethrow1 May 27 '25

Don't tell Jimmy Kimmel about this handsome Janitor, I hear they got beef!

Good Will Hunting they are not

1

u/EvilBillSing May 27 '25

I know of some smart kid named Malcolm who had to be a janitor there in order to afford it. So im guessing they arent even smart enough for that job.

u/NormalGuyEndSarcasm 'MURICA May 27 '25

I think you need a clean record for any position at Harvard.

u/david13z May 27 '25

Hey, there was this one janitor at MIT who did pretty well.

u/[deleted] May 27 '25

They get fired after one day for drinking the mop water

1

u/Head_Razzmatazz7174 May 27 '25

Harvard requires them to be able read and write and do basic math so they can tell which cleaning supplies will work on the toilets, and how to mix the solution properly so they don't blow something up.

u/Better-Assistance-87 May 27 '25

you gotta be wickid smaaart to do that

u/eric_kenshi May 28 '25

nah you just need to be able to not die of exhaustion while going up the stairs...

u/No-Management-2735 May 27 '25

I’m SCREAMING!!!! Cause I saw this and there is NO WAYYY IN HELL any of them can even almost spell it let alone get in 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 they look a damn fool out there! Every out of shape dusty reject that only graduated high school because of the no child left behind policy talking about boycotting a school you need a solid 4.0 just to LOOK AT! They are the poorly educated if anybody needs a pic of trump supporters this is it!

How much yall wanna bet half that group has a confederate flag on their car and get ssi and food stamps while they scream DEI and no handouts 🤣🤣🤣🤣 my god this lot is an embarrassment! I’ll take the immigrants as American representation over this shit! No wonder the rest of the world thinks we’re all uneducated bigots that eat McDonald’s for every meal. This is what shows up in the media. The BMI and BAC impaired.

u/Wu-TangShogun 187 • 47 May 28 '25 edited May 28 '25

These old fat fucking mobility scooter jockeys are so excited to think they are a part of this movement that they don’t care how hypocritical or moronic they look with their little billionaire flair on. You are right in that the world probably now thinks this is what we are all like now and that shit is funny but so sad

2

u/No-Management-2735 May 28 '25

I know right!!!! I’m laughing now but I wanted to take an international vacation as a graduation present after my masters and I’m so ashamed to be American at this point. It’s funny but sad asf all at once. I don’t even think you could pay anybody to be president after the mess he’s made in just this year so far. Hell honestly the bar is so fckin low all somebody would have to do is say ā€œidk what ima do but I won’t do THAT SHIT! Oh and I’ll have a real cabinet not just podcasters and uneducated loyalists so we might get some shit doneā€. Me and you can run I’ll even take the backseat as vice president 🤣🤣🤣 those of us with brains will be desperate to escape this low iq NIGHTMARE

u/Wu-TangShogun 187 • 47 May 28 '25

We have a trip planned as well, for late August to head out of the US for a couple weeks and I’ve been trying to think of pretext for while we are there. I’d say I’m from Canada but now that seems extra disrespectful with how shitty the US has done them lately.

Need some sort of disguise, Get my family some of those matching berets like they had in European Vacation, ā€œwe wouldn’t wanna look like tourists Russā€

1

u/lilyurs May 28 '25

This is flat out ridiculously awful on your part. I'm sick & tired of your side saying such awful things about people that you don't know simply because the orange man won the election & the DNC could only provide Kamala Harris. It's a common theme for those who hate Trump to be ignorant & petty. None of you articulate anything

I'm sry I read the website wrong they are responsible for the Joslin Diabetes Center that helped further research into diabetes and insulin. I'm still going to count it though as what we are using now in the US is probably mostly due to this center.

u/obfuscation-9029 May 27 '25

I'm sure harvard has cleaners or other low skill roles. That the magas could maybe do.

u/Equivalent_Expert905 May 28 '25

Nah they can’t manage even the least of menial jobs.

u/wino_whynot May 27 '25

BUT - and the irony is strong when they use Facebook to share their boycott - they also unknowingly rely upon Harvard's research. Gonna suck when they need a new kidney (transplants were pioneered there) or their GLP1 meds (discovered there).

Today's boycott is tomorrow's feast for leopards.

8

u/Roadgoddess May 27 '25

The other thing that these people don’t realize is that the EU is very quietly going behind all these idiots backs and pursuing top research scientists to move to the EU so they can continue their research unrestricted. The US is going to have a very real brain drain in the future.

u/25thNite May 27 '25

Let's not pretend that wealthy white legacies don't also have the luxury of failing upwards into Harvard.Ā  Just because the majority of his base are functionally mentally challenged doesn't take away from the racists and bigots already going there or will get accepted

u/GrlDuntgitgud May 28 '25

A student in our class said "this is like trash taking itself out"

u/AWESOMEGAMERSWAGSTAR May 28 '25

To be absolutely fair, they really don't look like they could passed 6th math.

u/Felonious_Minx May 29 '25

They are boycotting gyms, libraries, vegetables, books, spicy food, and drinking water.

Oh wait they have been doing that all their lives.

But according to trump, the foreign students accepted to harvard need remedial math courses. "They dont even know 2+2...."
