During weeks of televised hearings, millions of Americans watched McCarthy question and bully officers, harassing them about trivial details and accusing them of misconduct. His popular support began to fade.
The Communist Red Scare primarily refers to two periods in U.S. history marked by intense fear of communism and its potential influence. The first occurred after World War I, during the 1910s and early 1920s, fueled by the Bolshevik Revolution in Russia and domestic labor unrest. The second wave unfolded during the late 1940s and 1950s amid the Cold War, characterized by McCarthyism, where government officials, including Senator Joseph McCarthy, led aggressive investigations and accusations against suspected communists. This era saw widespread paranoia, violations of civil liberties, and significant social and political repercussions.

All communists were unemployed. The only way for a "communist" to stay out of jail, or to keep a steady job, was to give names of other "communists". Since many of the accused were not truly communists, they did not know any other communists. This caused many innocent people to be accused. It caused the blacklisting of actors, actresses, writers, directors, etc. in the film Industry because of the Red Scare. McCarthyism was a campaign, led by Senator Joseph McCarthy, against alleged communists in the US government and other institutions. Some of its effects were the loss of jobs, the fear and trauma it caused for the victims and the stifling of progress and individual expression.
The communists won by having more determination. Their effect on the US domestic front simply meant an added communist power to contain, during the cold war.
The Red Scare and McCarthyism were primarily fueled by fears of communist infiltration during the Cold War, particularly following World War II. The Soviet Union's expansion, the success of the communist revolution in China, and the onset of the Korean War heightened anxieties about domestic subversion. Senator Joseph McCarthy capitalized on these fears by alleging that numerous government officials and citizens were communists or communist sympathizers, leading to a widespread culture of suspicion and persecution. This era was characterized by aggressive investigations and accusations without substantial evidence, resulting in significant social and political consequences.
well. Turkeys are secretly mind ninjas invented by communists, who are lead in to battle by Santa and Jackie Chan. So turkeys should NEVER be domestic. or they will get you. they're everywhere. even in the shower.

By displaying that if a type of bogey man is created, peoples' irrational fears will take over, discarding rationale and finding ghost where there really are none. Specifically, it could be most likened to the Senator McCarthy red scare and witch trials, in which McCarthy created such an atmosphere of fear of communists among us, that neighbors were suspicious of one another and counted innocent people were put on trial due to rumor and unjust suspicion, rather than actual evidence.
Many Americans believed there were communists in the U.S. government due to the heightened fears of the Red Scare, particularly after World War II and during the early Cold War era. This paranoia was fueled by real events, such as the exposure of Soviet espionage cases and the influence of communist ideology in various sectors. Influential figures, like Senator Joseph McCarthy, stoked these fears by claiming to uncover communist infiltrators, leading to widespread suspicion and a culture of accusation. The combination of geopolitical tensions and domestic political campaigns further amplified these beliefs.
