the ... very deadly ... McCarthyist scare of the late-1940s and 1950s

I wonder why the author didn't mention the tens or hundreds of thousands killed in this "deadly" scare? ?s

McCarthy was a visionary.

His failing was underestimating the communist infiltration.

Excellent point....versus of course the millions of lives saved (or created) in the gulags and the other great socialist humanitarian movements of the 20th century.
