Growing up I always was taught McArthy attacking hollywood for red scare was just the power tripping of a paranoid man.

Now I realize that he who influences culture influences the mind, so of course our enemies would hit the heart of where billions spend hours in a dark watching their propaganda.

"McCarthy decides to violate an agreement that Cohen and Welsh had come to before." Aka not McCarthy's agreement.

"Joe Welsh said fine, I will never bring up your draft status..." if you don't bring up the DIRTY COMMIE WHO WORKS FOR ME.

Media bullshit back then, too. So McCarthy was a terrible person for bringing up a communist sympathizer in a court hearing about communist sympathizers infiltrating our institutions, because of an agreement he didn't make.

And that's just how it's taught. "Have you no decency?" I'm sure the (media) got marching orders on this one, too. Go watch that video and see the brainwash.

Oh yeah- me too. I always thought it was mindless witch trials. He uncovered so much slime in this country. And a huge amount of it was in Hollywood.

All of the Hollywood stuff was done by HUAC. Not McCarthy. McCarthy primarily was rooting out communists infiltrators in our government.

Sadly, it was/is much worse than McCarthy even knew.
