The Red Scare was the fear of communism. America and the Soviet Union came out as two world powers after WW2, holding the most amount of nuclear weaponry. They were the two opponents(not including any satellite states or colonies) of the Cold War, and had opposing economic ideas, America supporting capitalism and the Soviet Union supporting Communism. Going back to the high amounts of nuclear weaponry on both sides, since there were such alarming amounts people around the world were in fear of nuclear warfare, especially those in America. American citizens often believed that the Soviet Union would strike America and attack with nuclear bombs, which increased the presence of the Red Scare.
The Red Scare was hysteria over the perceived threat posed by Communists in the U.S. during the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States, which intensified in the late 1940s and early 1950s. (Communists were often referred to as “Reds” for their allegiance to the red Soviet flag.) The Red Scare led to a range of actions that had a profound and enduring effect on U.S. government and society. Federal employees were analyzed to determine whether they were sufficiently loyal to the government, and the House Un-American Activities Committee, as well as U.S. Senator Joseph R. McCarthy, investigated allegations of subversive elements in the government and the Hollywood film industry. The climate of fear and repression linked to the Red Scare finally began to ease by the late 1950s.
