Words don’t work that way. You’re trying to equate “insult word” to “people in the other camp,” as if all of one side weren’t, and perhaps all of the other side were. That’s nonsense.

“Anti-American”? Listen, cupcake, I’m more American than you are. Just being left of center doesn’t make one un-American, let alone anti-.

As for\* Hamilton!\* being non-political, it’s a musical\* about Alexander Hamilton!\* Pence had every reason to know what he was getting into. And it’s not anti-American, at all. It’s incredibly patriotic, even conservative, even hagiographic, when it gets into its treatment of Hamilton’s generation. Frankly, as a descendant of the colonists and distant cousin of the Founding Fathers, I find it a little embarrassing.

You are talking about a fantasy world.
