    David Gorski, MD, PhD Retweeted Kevin M. Kruse

    This response to @WellsKathleen and her questioning of the Southern strategy is the best burn I've seen in a while. The equivalent idiocy would be someone telling me that cancer or, even more amusingly, breast cancer is "not my lane." Kevin shows how to respond to Dunning-Kruger.https://twitter.com/KevinMKruse/status/1115661430399877125 …

    I'm a historian of American politics and the civil rights era who has spent a quarter century researching, writing and teaching this exact topic. This is absolutely my lane. https://twitter.com/WellsKathleen/status/1115660669028724736 …

        Even more hilarious is @WellsKathleen's response when someone says something along the lines of "Acclaimed historian vs. talk radio host, whom should I believe?" I mean, seriously. Can ignorance be this arrogant? 😂 https://twitter.com/wellskathleen/status/1115699082704457728 …

        Sadly, though, this is how much as a nation we've come to devalue true expertise in favor of belief. A talk radio host @WellsKathleen gets into an argument with a real historian about the existence of Nixon's Southern strategy and doesn’t realize how outmatched she is!

        I must say, though, I agree with this assessment.https://twitter.com/omri_marian/status/1115670763921494016 …

        This is a proof we can all easily become contributing members of our society. For example, trying to dunk on @KevinMKruse with American History on Twitter significantly enhances Twitter's entertainment value. See? We can all contribute!

        It's unfortunate that historians increasingly have to put up with the same crap we've had to put up with in since and medicine with antivaxers, quacks, climate science deniers, etc. Back in the day my main issue was Holocaust denial, but there's now so much more pseudohistory.

        What is really messed up is being an African-American apologist for a racist political party headed by a man who became famous for being a racist (see Central Park Five & Birtherism). They will never respect you.
