      I think the problem is to refute your review would require you reading some books: Michael Kazin's The Populist Persuasion, John Judis' The Populist Explosion for a start. I'd also add that the main racists in American history have been anti-populist elitists.

      Try Richard Hofstader and Cas Mudde

      Hofstadter's views on populism are widely regarded as discredited by experts in the field. For a quick summary of a vast literature see here:https://issforum.org/roundtables/policy/1-5an-paranoid …

      That’s extremely not true and I’m literally a college professor in US history. I wrote a sourced thread on the literature. I don’t need a lit review from you

      If you think Hofstadter is a reliable source on populism, good luck to your students.

      Really? Where did you get your PhD? What US history classes have you taught? I mean you must have some qualification that makes you determine that I’m wrong

      I don't think rank pulling solves the problem that you are misrepresenting the literature, as seen by Ribuffo's article (since Ribuffo certainly had a degree). I'll note that Hofstadter himself admitted that the criticism of Age of Reform was accurate (see David Brown's bio).

          You’re the one who made it personal by pitying my students and discounted a huge swath of academics this subject. And the article you posted wasn’t a lit review as much as a take down of particular phrase

          You’ve also ignored tons of corrections to your factually incorrect claims about racism in the US

          When punditry goes wrong. This is what made me so furious about the letter. A bunch of pseudo intellectuals claiming a right to not be criticized by the masses. And then you have the nerve to talk about populism!
