Is there currently anything like the Salem Witch Trials and the Red Scare going on right now? In other words, are there any instances of people being falsely accused of being something they aren't currently or recently? I'm really uninformed, I just want to know and I don't want to go on /pol/ about this.

The red scare is still going on, out yourself as a socialist of any kind or being associated with unions= no jobs

Yes, everyone accused of being a racist. What's funny is that the leftist media organizing witch hunts against fictional fascists and constantly crying wolf kind of desensitized the average people who won't give a fuck when the actual fascists show up.

First thing that came to mind, although it's not as blatantly accusation-based like Salem or the Red Scare like OP mentioned. What do you think about the president's actions? Are they justified given the circumstances, and/or through his end goal?

You can call anybody a racist without an ounce of evidence and there's a good chance they will lose their job and reputation permanently, so yeah.
