Joe Rogan wants you to regard him as a passive observer just talking to buds but he knows he was key to the Trump campaign and will be key to the future Fuentes campaign.
Joe Rogan and Shane Gillis on Nick Fuentes running for president one day.
Rogan: “He could probably win in a few years. Listen, he couldn’t have existed before, right? Ten, twenty years ago, couldn’t have existed. Now, super popular. What’s twenty years from now look like?”

You actually can't teach DisHist without military history.
There is no way around it--and most disability historians end up reading, writing and researching disability amongst veterans, soldiers and civilians in some capacity or the other.
The problem is some people don't acknowledge our work.

At a CHA six or so years ago two mil historians gave a paper citing the death of military history because only x-number of classes in Canada had those words in the title. Sitting there, having just taught a Disability History course with a large mil history component, I was stupefied.
