McCarthy was a goddamned hero and a true patriot. He ruined his entire professional career in what can equate to a Paul Revere style warning. Let’s not disrespect the man knowing what we now know—but I do understand what you’re saying. Instead of one man it’s a whole civilian army this time
This.. is news to me. Before you go and downvote, I want to put out I am trying to learn here.
I am class of 2006. Everything I heard about McCarthy was he simply used the Red Scare for political purposes. If that is untrue... where's the best place I can unfuck what I was taught? I never seen anythibg positive about him online til now.
Check out "Blacklisted by History" by M. Stanton Evans. Extremely well-researched work that sets the record straight. Same as you, schools have tried to indoctrinate me on this topic and others, it's communist propaganda pure and simple. Leftist ideology is deeply rooted in our public education system.
Academia has been pushing a completely false, leftist gaslighting narrative for decades. McCarthy is the tip of the iceberg, but he's an easy punching bag considering his popular reputation. Similar to Trump, McCarthy was an American patriot unjustly condemned by pro-communist intellectuals and the leftwing establishment of his day. If the people listened to him back in the 1950s (instead of the NYT) the USA would be a far better place than it is today
