The Red Scare was good actually (communism bad); Joseph McCarthy is a Wisconsinite legend. The last election itself
was an act of subversion by the government against its own people (so the wrong kind) since the election was fraudulent. Joe Biden’s senile ass, to say the very least, did not receive the most votes of any candidate in American history; that is obvious bull.
Subversive foreign agents should be penalized since they aren’t acting in the American laypeople’s interests, so that’s an understandable one. And yes, people do get thrown in prison or forced to apologize in 1984-style interrogations for questioning or even lightly criticizing the Chinese government, it’s just covered up so you don’t catch on. Think 8964/Tiananmen Square.
