Many Americans turned against détente due to its perceived failure to curb Soviet aggression and expansionism, particularly after events like the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979. The perceived moral and ideological compromise of engaging with a totalitarian regime led to a resurgence of Cold War tensions and the belief that the U.S. was being too lenient. Additionally, the rise of conservative political movements during the late 1970s, which emphasized a stronger stance against communism, contributed to the backlash against détente.

Why did Shays' Rebellion frighten many Americans?

Shays' Rebellion frightened many Americans because it was just that, an armed rebellion against a fledgling Federal Government. The rebellion, which directly challenged the authority of a Federal Government that was still predominantly weak (see "Articles of Confederation"), demanded rapid action from the President, at the time George Washington. Washington lead several thousand troops directly into the area, silencing any idea of rebellion and maintaining the legitimacy of the government, as well as demonstrating to Americans that rebellion against "The Peoples's Government" was not acceptable. In short though, Americans were watching the government deploying soldiers domestically to quell rebellion purported by other Americans. This was frightening, watching a rebellion being put down within our own nation. In the end, Washington pardoned the leaders of the rebellion, and everything ultimately turned out okay.
