As far as I can tell, most people who like history become fash. I've loved history from when I was 12, but now I'm not sure if I should. Even if they don't become fascist "entertainers", they become academics too obsessed with the minute details and not about how it meaningfully affects today's world.
Maybe I'm looking into the wrong field for what I'm interested in. Any thoughts?
You're not gonna become a fascist by taking history classes I promise you
This is completely the wrong reason to reconsider your major
Correct. They should reconsider this major because they might become an underemployed alcoholic who posts frequently on /r/AskHistorians.
