    people forget the western allies propping up the third reich early on, using them as a proxy against the USSR.

    people forget the corporate coup attempt against FDR

    people forget the palmer raids from 1919

    they also forget the rage at the paris commune among the american bourgeoisie back in 1871. American anti communism is much, MUCH older than McCarthy.

          The Man from Earth is a science fiction story where a group of people get together for a dinner party and one of them claims to have been alive for all of human history, thousands and thousands of years. At first the other guests don't believe him but as he describes various historical events as though he was there they start to wonder.
