Generation after generation of university professor brainwashing their students without fear of retribution, and even today it goes on. Russell Brand earns a living spreading the gospel of communism, his rat-faced Marxist mate gets to present Bake Off and we all remain passive. I'm not too troubled, I'm almost dead, but I can only hope that sometime after I'm gone, decency will rear its head once more and disembowel the snivelling liberals who blight our lives and steal our freedom to speak and to think with their Marxist dogma. Ben Elton, Billy Bragg, Stewart Wossname, Bob Geldof and that lad who looks like Gandalf. Stab them all in the eyes and then string them up from lampposts with signs saying 'Verräter' hung round their necks.

See also those who would disrespect Her Majesty. Products of the 'permissive society'. I'd have them all flogged to death.
Yeah, what I've come to realise is actually the extent to which I've been indoctrinated by this nonsense as well. If asked, I'd probably reflexively have said McCarthy was a bad thing because...errr...The Crucible and...ummm...Spartacus.
In fact, my degree of thought on the subject was hopeless. McCarthy was actually right about communist infiltration of the US and equally right to call it out and make people scared of communists. I feel like scales have been lifted from my eyes.
