You did learn about the red scare in high school right?

So you know that Russian/Soviet interference in our government is a very old concern that definitely made the news.

Take my word for it...it was called the red menace. I have no idea when Wikipedia decided it was the red scare.
All I can tell ya is that all the adults and all the media (like 3 TV channels, and the radio stations, and newspapers) were using the term red menace.

/e I grew up in the end of that era. I was born in 56.

Yeah, I do have a very poor grasp of the bastardized version of English that's spoken today.

/e I was alive when this crap happened. I don't care what Wikipedia says about this... I was there. Both my parents were born in 1925.

There's been Russian meddling and dealings with the us government since at least Regan. The fact that anyone cares about this now is beyond idiotic.



100% this entire line of text is deflected jargon.
