Current Russia is about as far from communism, socialism or any left-wing agenda as possible. It is a reactionist, authoritarian, pro-tradition anti-progress state run by a wealthy elite. Being against current Russia has literally nothing to do with McCarthyism, other than geography.
@InternetCitizen2 is a self admitted troll who has started stalking me across all of lemmy lying about me in every thread because he got enraged I said genocide denial is bad.
Eeh, come on. While yes, that is one way to put it, McCarthy has a certain ring to it, especially in left and liberal circles. Something something you cannot not evoke a thing without its frame.
Usual suspects come to Russia’s rescue

K. Not what I meant, and you know it.

Ok, still not what I was talking about, as you know.
Then please explain what other association you have with McCarthy? Because the one I perceive as commonly used seems to not be it?
Accusing people of being Russian agents with no evidence as away of silencing disagreement.
