You saw this Antifa/BLM communist coup d'e tat in the making and tried to warn an indifferent nation as to what nefarious activities were long in the making.

We should have listened and took heed.

You were right.

No doubt. The Verona papers confirmed this. But it is a true tragedy that he wasn't able to finish the job. Look at what became of education and media, just since the 1960s.

He wouldn't have survived this. He'd have stroked out by now. And understandably so.

ummm....no. McCarthyism was the original cancel culture. he used his power to completely destroy the lives of those he didn't like. the vast majority weren't commies and some ended up committing suicide

frick McCarthy.

what you're watching now is hyper McCarthyism....except they're using "racist" instead of "commie"

He was fricking Nostradamus - Hell, witches couldn’t do as much damage as progressivism.

Yes, one of the biggest mistakes the country ever made was not taking his warnings more seriously. Heck, for proof just look at who is trying to trash him in this thread. That tells you all you need to know right there

Ann Coulter's book 'Treason' is a great read on McCarthy. The footnote documentation is about 30 pages long.

JFC.

Yes, the racist, alcoholic madman who may be responsible for the largest abuse of power scheme in congressional history — THAT’S who we should emulate.

Why? Because liberals are being aggressive. On Twitter.

The problem with McCarthyism is that it advocates statism as a solution for fighting communism. This something many people noted about us during the Cold War.
