I mean it reflects the real Alexander Hamilton's opinion but that opinion was extremely biased Kinda sucks the two dudes HAMILTON shits on most, John Adams and Aaron Burr, were among the two most anti-slavery of the Founding Fathers (and Burr supported women's suffrage to boot)https://twitter.com/IgneousSigil/status/1282478626752147456 …

I don't know that HAMILTON shits on Aaron Burr that much, really. I mean, Alexander H. does, but the show treats him pretty seriously.

Adams gets a one-off burn, mostly - he's a non-appearing figure. But I think it's a lot harsher on Jefferson and Madison.

Slave-owning mythologizing aside. "Ladies, tell your husbands, vote for me!" has to be a reference to that, no?

It's more a reference to the fact that Burr was a notorious "ladies' man" in his personal life

My favorite bit of Aaron Burr trivia is that he was a huge fan of Mary Wollstonecraft and kept a picture of her on his mantle. That of course doesn't mean he wasn't trying for a power grab, but it does seem to support the idea that he genuinely meant some of it.
