'In our third and final article on the new Register of British Slave Traders we compare it to McCarthyism and to ‘persecuting societies’ in medieval Europe.'

Hysterical, and not in an amusing way.

Because multigenerational homes defeat the capitalist worker trap. If the rich can’t control everyone by controlling wages, healthcare, and cost of living, the commoners can get a leg up. That is the purpose of the nuclear family and McCarthyism: more captured consumers believing they are free.

“The Drumhead” (TNG S4E21) remains one of the most powerful lessons in McCarthyism, demagoguery, and justice I’ve ever seen.
It should be required course material in every high school government or civics class.

It was like an updated McCarthyism: there are dirty communists embedded everywhere, corrupting our institutions, preventing American greatness, and we just need to get rid of these communists and replace them with patriots of our own sort.

They are so lost - they're pining for things that devastated conservatives after McCarthyism, while they themselves worship the modern Capitalist Communist - Putin

#NowWatching THE CRUCIBLE (1967). Director: Alex Segal. George C. Scott, Tuesday Weld.

Live TV presentation of Arthur Miller's famed play about Salem witch trials (itself, a metaphor for 1950's "Red Scare" abuses of McCarthyism & HUAC).

Kind of like McCarthyism where your neighbour went to work and came home a communist bent on destroying your country and way of life.
Seems like a theme down there.

That episode was informed by memories of McCarthyism.

The GOP gave us: Watergate, Iran Contra, 4 stock market crashes, McCarthyism, the Iraq & Afghanistan Wars, the covid epidemic, the Jan 6th failed coup, Trump, a corrupt SCOTUS, freezing FEMA's $, ICE, tearing down part of the White House, raising your medical bills, Musk, RFK Jr. & war with Iran.

The Red scare: McCarthyism. Now the orange pig is aiding and abetting war criminals.

The new McCarthyism...but i have the feeling that far-right populism is collapsing everywhere.

I think back to the way Kissinger had the democratically elected Guatemalan Communist president Jacobo Árbenz usurped due to his land reform, claiming the people don't know what they want, while fortunately we don't live in a 🕞 of McCarthyism, I don't see the CIA letting so many socialists stick-
everyone within the states within 👀 of this skeet, please go out & vote today & especially look up who's a DSA candidate near you~!! let's not just usurp Trump's momentum of murder let's ensconce leftism so fervently into US politics, that they all have no option but to listen to our demands~😤

close enough, welcome back mccarthyism
Attorneys for 15 Minnesota residents facing federal conspiracy charges have obtained evidence of a sweeping, possibly unconstitutional spying operation carried out by ICE against left-wing social movements in Minnesota and beyond.
ICE Is Running One of the Largest Anti-Left Surveillance Operations in US History
ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations is engaged in far-reaching spying against left-wing activists that rivals the FBI and CIA crackdowns on the Civil Rights and anti-war movements.

“It’s a list of voter McCarthyism,” said Chad Dunn, the attorney for the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights — who sued over the administration’s use of the list. “If you’re a voter in California you have to wonder, are you on this list?”

Not forgetting of course, the Chinese exclusion policy, McCarthyism and Mai Lai. Oh, and supplying Japan with oil during WW2. Mark Twain said that America learnt its cruelty from Britain, and refined it. It's a sick society.
