Burr was definitely a narcissist. But the OP I responded to made it seem like the government had killed Hamilton and that's not the case. Hamilton made enemies and that's what got him killed. And he made enemies not because of where he was from but because of what he did to some people like Burr.
I've enjoyed this, but my original comment wasn't super serious. That said, Burr was worse than a narcissist.
No doubt. We actually know a lot more about Hamilton than we do about Burr.
What we do know is that he killed a founding father, was a traitor in other ways, and never paid for any of his crimes. Sound familiar?
That's a false equivalency.
Any historical parallel is.
Thats not accurate either.
It most certainly is. There are similarities and nitpicky differences, and both are interesting and enlightening to explore.
