The U. S. government's anti-Communist strategy of containment in Asia led to America's involvement in the Korean and Vietnamese Wars. The Vietnam War demonstrated the power of American public opinion in reversing foreign policy. It tested the democratic system to its limits, left scars on American society that have not yet been erased, and made many Americans deeply skeptical of future military or even peacekeeping interventions. The Truman Doctrine of "containment of communism" was a guiding principle of American foreign policy throughout the Cold War, not to roll it back but to keep it from spreading and to resist communist aggression into other countries.
They attacked anyone and anything associated with it in various ways: politically, legally (law changes and creations), and militarily.

It was considered a threat with the Russian Revolution and the Chinese civil war during WW2 brought that threat to the forefront. Communism was always a threat to capitalist governments due to it being the exact opposite of what capitalism stands for. Though, recognize what communism is, and not what it was made out to be. Different Opinion Communism was never a threat. The West took it as a threat because several natiosn were taking that government and it was the opposite of Capitalist West's views. In addition, Communism was the government of the Soviet Union, America's 'opponent' during the Cold War (from this era most anti-Communist sentiment comes). Some other people, myself included, take it a little further by saying the US simply didn't want to recognize that it had met a government better than its own. Few people can actually tell you what Communism is; all the know is that it carries a negative connotation, which is just ridiculous/
by becoming allies with the usa.
The US responded by offering the Marshall aid this was resources for countries that were under the threat of being invaded by the soviets, by doing this they would be "containing" communism

President Truman responded by moving forward with a new nuclear weapon. He also created the Truman Doctrine to contain the advancement of communism by providing support to any nation threatened by communism.
President Truman decided that the United States would offer assistance to any nation threatened by communism. The Soviet Union would not be allowed to expand further. This policy came to be known as the Truman Doctrine
