No I'm serious I have no idea what was going on in that time and everything I've heard about McCarthy up until now has been nothing but bad, and that most of his supposed commies were innocent, if he even nailed any at all.

All I can think of is that it put people on edge and might have made it harder for soviet spies to obtain information in the US or to stay as fully functional informants. But then, I have no concrete sources of such things ever happening, or this being the case.

The First Amendment doesn't have any provision for the allowance of stealing secrets from the Manhattan project, or the selling military intelligence to the Soviet Union as in the case of the Cambridge Spy Ring.

McCarthy threw names out, almost at random. That doesn't mean that there weren't actual Communists in Hollywood, or in Cambridge, or in Alamogordo. I'm not defending him because he was a shallow blowhard, even if his intentions were fine by me.

McCarthy just made the mistake of inconveniencing powerful people in Hollywood enough to torpedo his political career.

There was a war between the US and the USSR and some very important people had too much sympathy for the USSR and could possibly help them against their former country in subtle ways.

He inconvenienced a lot of the wrong people in Hollywood, so now, sixty years later, Hollywood Jews continue to perpetuate the story that mean ol' Joe is gonna pick you up and reeducate you if you read a socialist newsletter.

Meanwhile, back in real life, there were indeed actual Communist threats to national security in the 50s, and declassified intelligence has confirmed that several of the people who ended up being pursued by the intelligence community were indeed guilty of espionage.

You just don't hear about Alger Hiss, or the Rosenbergs, or Klaus Fuchs, or the myriad other spies, because Hollywood would rather push the narrative of some fascist state clamping down on your livelihood.

I irony of Liberals still being butthurt over the Red Scare is that Liberals are currently creating The Red Scare 2.0.
We should call it "The Racist Scare" or something.

Seriously, talk to a Liberal sometime about "racists".
Then replace every instance of "Communist" in a quote from Joseph McCarthy with "Racist". It matches up almost perfectly.

"They're everywhere! You can't see them or hear them, but they are there! We have to hunt them down by any means necessary! You agree, don't you? You aren't one of THEM, are you?...."

People are currently being unofficially blacklisted and having their lives/careers ruined thanks to this shit, inside Hollywood and outside of it.

The only difference?
Communists are and were a credible threat to the stability of the nation and comprised a legitimate threat from those that would do us harm.
Racists, however, are a threat to your feelings.

>>
>>63019119
>They had no air force
This. WWII was the war that showed the importance of air superiority.

Even if you're not going to invade all of Russia, you still prevent the iron curtain going up through the middle of Europe. You'd prevent the USSR for forming as we know it. Hell annex Korea and the Kamchatka as protectorates while you're at it.

On top of all that, the Russians weren't even close to having an atomic bomb and the US was building more as fast as they could.
>>
>>63019119

Ok, let’s start from the top.

The standard Soviet Battle Tank in 1945 was the T34/85. It had better all-around protection than the M4 Medium, had a higher power-to-weight ratio, was faster and offered lower ground pressure. The 85mm Gun was roughly equal to the 76mm though the greater weight of shell did give it a higher chance to destroy a tank with a penetrating hit.

The standard Soviet Heavy Tank was the ISII, which was superior in every way to the M26 Pershing. It had thicker armour (120mm compared to the 102mm on the Pershing), a vastly more powerful gun (the 122mm D25T could penetrate 145mm of Armour plate at 1000metres, whereas the 90mm M3 of the Pershing could only penetrate 103mm) and was available in greater numbers (there were less than 30 Pershings in Europe at the time WWII ended, compared to several thousand ISII).

Man for man, a US Soldier and a Soviet Soldier were about equal, but the Soviets had far greater numbers and a wiliness to use them. Most US and for that matter British army formations were weary and wanting the war to be over by May 1945, which affected their combat performance.

Only in the air did the Allies have the advantage, with far more and far superior aircraft, mainly bombers. Even then they'd have had a hard fight, as Soviet Aircraft were very well armed with highly powerful cannons and they were not adverse to suicide ramming tactics in desperate situations.

Though this all overlooks that no-one who had a shred of sanity wanted the war to continue, Everyone was exhausted from years of fighting. No-one would have willingly continued the war for any reason. There’s a reason Patton’s ideas were shot down in flames.
>>
>>63019503
>There’s a reason Patton’s ideas were shot down in flames.
Because they were bitches. Every time they let the man do his job, he exceeded the expectations. If there was a man in history that could have beat Russia in a land war, it was Patton.

Plus, I can't stress it enough, we had the bomb and were willing and able to use them. No MAD to stop them, or a real understanding of the repercussions. Just the threat of it is worth all the tank armor you can come up with.
>>
>>63016903
>Fuck the commies, and fuck Lewis C.K.
>>
>>63019854

The exact same reasons the Bomb wasn't used in Korea. Or that they didn't nuke the Soviets during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Or that they don't use poison gas against Isis now. Public opinion. Civilians keep the Soldiers in line and from doing whatever shit they want to do. Because in the end it is they who pay the price.

In 1945 Europe was already in ruins. Taking on the Soviets would have simply added a few more million dead and kept the soldiers away from home for a few more years. And no-one wanted that. Besides, if the USSR had been overthrown in WWII, something else would have come up to oppose the US. Or the Americans would have fought each other in the sixties or something similar.

Ironically, the motherfucker was literally an unintentional communist. One of those "don't question the government, obey them" scumfucks. Fucking kill yourselves if you think he did nothing wrong. He should of been publicly lynched. He didn't give a shit about communism anyways. Scumfucks like mccarthy are the worst part of the republican party.
>>
>>63020148

The funny thing is, McCarthy never had anything to do with the inquiries into Hollywood. McCarthy was a Senator and the House handled the Hollywood stuff.

McCarthy himself was deeply involved in the government side of things, and he was more than often right: Soviet agents were active at the highest echelons of the US government during WW2, and after the war they gave the USSR the plans for nuclear weapons.

This is such shit armchair strategy.

Fighting a war in your enemy's territory is much preferred to fighting a war in your own. This has been the basis of essentially all post-WW2 war doctrine. Because violence happening in one's own country can actually be WORSE than your enemy winning the war.

Would you rather beat the Nazis in a war that would destroy many American cities, or let the Nazis win and keep your own cities self?

Putting the safety of your homeland before ideological goals is selfish, but it's also the smartest way to fight a war.

By capitulating to the Allied powers in 1919 before its major cities could be occupied, Germany ended WW1 in a much better position than it ended WW2. The Versailles accords were ridiculous, but Germany's ability to bounce back from them shows how healthy their post-WW1 position was.

Nobody like Hitler would have been able to rise in post-WW2 Germany, because the war was fought on German soil and ended with a massive occupation.

Liberty is something that is actively maintained, and declassified Kremlin docs proved we were too inactive. Communism was a threat in a world where there were legitimate Communist powers next door. Your limp-wristed sophistry is the tool of decadence.

Loyalists were sometimes tarred and feathered. Their houses might be burned, their possessions looted, themselves found murdered.

At the end of the American Revolution, most found themselves emigrating to Canada.

Thomas Edison was an American because his family kept picking the losing side. They were for the king in the American Revolution, and fled to Canada when they lost, and then they were against the king in the rebellions, and fled to America when they lost.

The problem is McCarthy basically just had a dartboard where a tenth of it was the target and he threw enough darts to hit that target. While he did manage to accomplish some good things he did it in a retarded way that caused way more damage than necessary. It also lead to a bad precedent that could be exploited to harm honest Americans in a situation similar to 1984, but luckily most people caught on to the negative possibilities of his methods.

You can't fucking read can you?
I didn't call all conservatives "facist". I just said both fascism and communism must be obliterated from the fucking planet. We should not embrace either one of em. The kremlin docs was beside the point. Mccarthy faggot was using fascist tactics to infringe on anybody who questioned the government.
You're the limp wristed cunt here you boot licking citizen.
Oh and go back to highschool and learn to fucking read

Don't try to backtrack on pedantic bullshit you just made up. Fascism hadn't been relevant for a long time when McCarthy was around. Keep that salt under control, we don't want you to have a heart attack when Bernie gets dropped harder than your parents dropped you.

McCarthy had nothing to do with the blacklists. They pre-date him by a couple years. Trumbo, and the rest of the Hollywood Ten, so humiliated the industry before the HUAC on the orders of the Communist Party that the industry had no choice but to institute the blacklists in order to save face. Even then they were a joke. Most could get around it by using aliases and those that couldn't lived luxurious lifestyles making movies in Europe. And after a while it was forgotten and Hollywood went right back to being the Communist shit hole that it was before.

Mean while, their hero, "Uncle" Joe Stalin was murdering and enslaving millions. Liberals are the most entitled, prissy bitch-ass drama queens alive.

Communist spies (i.e. liberals) had stolen our state secret since the early days of the New Deal and had used those secrets to conquer Eastern Europe, being able to get away with it because they had our nuke technology. You bet it was life and death.

>it was only getting their careers destroyed

They should have thought of that before they started penning pro-Soviet propaganda like Trumbo's Mission to Moscow, on the order of the Communist Party. It wasn't persecution so much as cultural self-preservation.

>Surely all those Hollywood scum knew about Stalin's gulags and supported them!

They were common knowledge in Communist circles. Trumbo supported them whole-heartedly.

>Racists, however, are a threat to your feelings

Here's the problem with "eliminating racism".

It's fucking impossible. The only way to end it is to mix the races until all uniqueness is melted together OR a quick genocide*.

*See current South Africa

It's ironic because we've turned a corner onto a new 'unspeakable ism' from communism.

Back then, the ultimate shut down was to call someone a communist. Disagree with US foreign policy? you're a communist. Disagree with anything that goes against majority opinion? Communist.

Today that's changed, now that ism is racism/sexism. Disagree with anything liberals have to say about the economy? racist and sexist. Disagree that every company should have quotas for women and minorities shoved down their throat by the government? Racist and sexist.

I wouldn't be surprised if some far left california congressman came out with a list of known racists who are mostly their political enemies.
