Mccarthy was right

[The2ndAmendment]

Mccarthy was fully aware of the Marxist subversion of America, we need only look at the MSM and SCOTUS Justice Stevens to see how entrenched these Marxists are. They ddin't appear there overnight, they've been there the entire time...since Mccarthy's time.

They make note of how he targeted Hollywood...just look at Holywood with all the LGBTQ, anti-gun and pro-death bullshit

It is difficult to estimate the number of victims of McCarthy. The number imprisoned is in the hundreds, and some ten or twelve thousand lost their jobs.[59] In many cases simply being subpoenaed by HUAC or one of the other committees was sufficient cause to be fired.[60] Many of those who were imprisoned, lost their jobs, or were questioned by committees did in fact have a past or present connection of some kind with the Communist Party. But for the vast majority, both the potential for them to do harm to the nation and the nature of their communist affiliation were tenuous.[61] After the extremely damaging "Cambridge Five" spy scandal (Guy Burgess, Donald Maclean, Kim Philby, Anthony Blunt, et al.), suspected homosexuality was also a common cause for being targeted by McCarthyism. The hunt for "sexual perverts", who were presumed to be subversive by nature, resulted in over 5,000 federal workers being fired, and thousands were harassed and denied employment.[62][63] Many have termed this aspect of McCarthyism the "Lavender scare".[64][65]

Homosexuality was classified as a psychiatric disorder in the 1950s.[66] However, in the context of the highly politicised Cold War environment, homosexuality became framed as a dangerous, contagious social disease that posed a potential threat to state security.[66] As the family was believed to be the cornerstone of American strength and integrity,[67] the description of homosexuals as "sexual perverts" meant that they were both unable to function within a family unit and presented the potential to poison the social body.[68] This era also witnessed the establishment of widely spread FBI surveillance intended to identify homosexual government employees

Mccarthy should be an honored American hero.

The more likely scenario is that McCarthy, as a drunk, was easily manipulated by Soviet operatives to introduce chaos into the American political scene.

McCarthy vastly underestimated the extent to which FDR and Truman reported to Stalin

 

[Pete7469]

At the same time leftist parasites in the US began promoting faggotry and all sorts of perversions the Soviets were exterminating them in the parts of the world they controlled.

There is a reason for that.

We had a thread on "Blacklisted" that was visited by the co-author. He schooled Starkey and his Progressive ilk - it was amazing

McCarthy pushed the buttons of paranoia and hysteria to unjustly accuse innocent Americans

Freedoms are anti-fascist/communist. Sorry.

 

[Bootney Lee Farnsworth]

McCarthy was right in WHO he named and goose-stepping communist traitors.

He was WRONG in how he went about exposing them.

 

[TheOldSchool]

He voted for Hillary

Research the released Venona Project papers. They are eye opening.

Oh his accusations were justified. Those fuckers all turned out to be goose-steppers. McCarthy's methods were wrong and I will never support that type of action.

I sometimes wonder if that was due to others not listening, not willing to look at the evidence, denied it, some of the actors involved feeling threatened and the need to make him look nuts.

Likely.

I know how he feels. I have been ringing the commie bell for years.

They don't go away. They simply change their stripes. The war is not over.

Point to ponder a bit:.....McCarthy henchman was Roy Cohn (a bonafide son of a bitch) who, of course, became Trump mentor appointed by Fred Trump to teach his son all the paranoia that an inept buffoon needs to screw up everything he touched.

What was wrong about saying there were Communists in State Department?

No one accused by McCarthy was an innocent American

They were all Communists
