The Red Scare in America was primarily sparked by the Bolshevik Revolution in 1917, which led to fears of communist influence and revolution spreading to the United States. The subsequent labor strikes and anarchist bombings in the early 1920s heightened public anxiety about radicalism and the potential for subversion. Additionally, the establishment of the Soviet Union and the rise of socialist movements contributed to a pervasive sense of paranoia about internal threats to American democracy and capitalism. This culminated in widespread government actions, including the Palmer Raids, aimed at suppressing perceived communist sympathizers.

The major events which sparked the red scare in the U.S. were the political takeovers of neighboring countries after World War II by the Soviet Union. These included many eastern European countries, such as Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria. Thus, fear was spread in U.S. political and governmental circles, and the domino theory was born (namely that the Soviet Union would influence southeast Asian countries to become communist and perhaps, the rest of the world).
