Rectal Ranger interesting take. I just think that communism should be identified as intrinsically flawed and an ideological enemy of liberty, and by default, the West. I think the correlations between Marxism and the butcherous despotism that takes root in every Marxist regime should be common knowledge. I think communist atrocities and genocides should be common knowledge amongst Westerners. There is only a common phobia surrounding fascism in the West, but not Marxism and the totalitarianism to which it inevitably leads. Young adults should be educated, not just about Hitler and the Holocaust, but on Stalin/Lenin and the Bolshevik Jew atrocities in the USSR (the Holdomor in particular), as well as the murderous transgressions and genocides carried out by other Marxist and Leftist despots like Mao, the Three Pashas, Pol Pot, the Kims, Ho Chi Minh, Mengistu, Castro, Che, etc. Really, Marxism should be demonized; it is warranted. Instead you see socialism taking root in the West, and socialists and communists openly running in Western elections and garnering considerable support. I agree with you that the methodology created hysteria and dissent more than anything, but I think McCarthy's intentions were genuine and the hysteria was borderline warranted.
