meant this
>>
>>2768475
Because he made a mockery of the system.
>>
>>2768475
Because commies and former commies completely took over the education system and the media. Even the Reaganite "neo-cons" were actually just former Marxists and Trotskyists, starting with their founder Irving Kristol.
>>

Is this some kind of new meme? The list he said he had never materialized. McCarthy investigations never lead to the finding or capture of spies.

Because the United States justice system is predicated on the notion that all US citizens are innocent until proven guilty.

He was right.

It also hurt and hindered the investigations and efforts of us organisation's as well as many "well duh Mccarthy we knew that ages ago".

Also he got btfo so hard in the last trial because all his evidence and shit was a complete 4chanesque shitpost.

Imagine if you are trying to hunt deer and some idiot runs
>>
>>2768546
Yeah, capitalists of communist backgrounds. Virtually the entire nu-GOP administration from Reagan to Jeb Bush was just a bunch of former leftists, including Reagan himself. These people shifted the Overton window from traditional conservatism (God, Race, Nation) to promotion of open borders, hardline zionism, racial egalitarianism and an abhorrent fetishization of the free market.

>>2768557
The real disctinction shouldn't really be economic. The conservatives of old (including people from the McCarthy and Eisenhower era) certainly didn't shy away from public spending and a social safety net, it's the communist relativization of cultural norms and subsequent erosion of any kind of tradition or identity that's the real problem.

I don't see what's bad about the free market. I don't think doctors should be able to charge as much as they do but there's nothing wrong with economic opportunity. America is about opportunity.

Policies like affirmative action existed before Reagan.

His entirety procedure revolved around bullying people and preventing them form taking it to court (the HUAC was not a court trial) through intimidation.

That's why when he did go against the military McCarthy got btfo because the military actually had lawyers to deal with his tricks (his ability to make anybody a communist really) and to actually call him out on his bullshit hard and got embarrassed on live tv because of how stupid his methods were once they were revealed to the public.

because there weren't multiple soviet spies in roosevelt's administration and OSS, right?

Duncan Lee got caught out by the Venon project not by McCarthy. McCarthy jsut used that as a justification for his HUAC which never really got results out of it, it just ruined lives since it had no real power since it wasn't a court trial the complete ruination of a person's everything gave it power and initmdation

Also the U.S had WAY more people spying and working for them on the Soviet side.

Luckily for us all. From a microbiological perspective communism is a malignant cancer which only grows in healthy cells and attacks the host.

Not really. The HUAC convicted ON ONE of communism just contempt of congress or perjury. Like Joe McCarthy pussied out when people either stood up to him or threatened to take it to court because then his evidence would be put to scrutiny.
>>
>>2768536
>The list he said he had never materialized
Wrong.

>McCarthy investigations never lead to the finding or capture of spies
Technically true.

You should check into John Earl Haynes' work. He compares McCarthy's lists to Venona and declassified FBI investigations. Over half of the people named by McCarthy were noted security risks and a good number were dead to rights working with the Soviets. That McCarthy was right isn't a meme anymore. History has redeemed McCarthy in his accusations, though his methods are still vilified.

Because he spat in the face of our justice system and due process, and conducted what amounted little to more than a witch hunt at the time. A lot of people who barely had association with socialism had their lives ruined as collateral damage.

He seized the opportunity of the red scare to thrust himself into prominence and gain power and traction.

Sure, his actions showed that communist infiltration was indeed happening in our government. But that doesn't justify us abandoning our republic's precepts or well established common law.
>>
>>2769237

>>
>>2769499
His actions didn't even show it really it was dealt with heavily at that point and later on in regards to spies. Having a guy literally go on a frothing crusade when you are trying to be discreet and catching actual legit spies rather then guys who were part of left leaning organization at some point in time kinda makes things silly.

There's a difference between reading lolicon and fiddling kids and this applies to this case. McCarthy never brought a single communist to trial, which was later tauntingly pointed out by his opponents in congress. There are also very few trials in general, because the juridical basis wasn't very firm. Treason is awfully hard to prove under the American constitution and most other statutes (Espionage law ...) aren't really applicable either. Hiss was sentenced because he committed perjury. The Rosenberg-case is really the exception, not the rule.

He did things which are illegal and contrary to edgelord belief, laws are actually of significant importance. He's probably easily confounded with the later incarnation of J Edgar Hoover in popular normtard reckoning who was worse.

Communists commit sedition by default. Their ideology demands the overthrow of the state. There are exactly zero non-seditious commies in the world. On top of this, being a communist means you do not respect the rights of others. As such, their rights should not be respected either.

Not that anon but commie scum are still citizens.

Misguided and often lies to by their cult leadsrs like Yvette Falarca, but citizens.

And until they actually break our laws they have all the rights afforded to the citizenry.

The recent resurgence has already failed. Died in the womb. Stillborn.

They should have kept it to banks and corporations. Hell even the police. But they came up against the frogmen and antagonized them. And peppersprayed young women and beat up other citizens while wearing masks.

Their optics are Hezbollah. They've lost their ideological center and even figures like Bernie Sanders stepped up to denounce them.

It's now standard LEO policy to unmask them and their members are facing real legal troubles.

But they are still citizens and capable of being salvaged.

If they had just left their masks off and come well dressed and nice looking try would have done more damage.

But there are real criminals in their ranks.

And pol already began developing antibodies. Like a vaccine for the social virus.

By the time they really stepped up our guys were already ready for War. They escalated to body armor and shield/batons organically within weeks. And it would have only escalated from there.

Do not misunderstand me, law enforcement has had to step in and curb their masked violence. For their own protection.

>Nigger, I think fucking Marbury v. Madison was wrong
Well, that makes you seditious by your own definition. Judicial power is invested, not created by the constitution. It's very clear in article 3. That means judicial review is a power that the court has, since it was a pre-existing, pre-revolutionary power that judges had. The judiciary doesn't say "oh, when the 4th amendment says that a warrant needs to be supported by probable cause, we think it means X because that's what seems reasonable", they say "The 4th amendment says that a warrant needs to be supported by probable cause. We are defining probable cause as X, and it is now X because we've defined it so."

https://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/354/298/case.html
The court clearly draws a distinction between advocacy and belief. You are objectively wrong, because again, the Supreme court actually defines this shit, so whatever they so define it as is tautologically correct. Ironically, your opposition to this is more seditious than anything these commies are doing.

Yeah, I don't think you've actually been to a poor black community. They're not exactly getting special treatment there. The schools in particular are pretty shit to begin with.

Again, the Supreme Court says that you are wrong. It's not even a question of reasoning, they have DEFINED the act of sedition such that mere membership in a communist organization does not meet it. That's what the law of sedition now IS; it's not an interpretation that could be flawed, it's a legal definition.

Different anon but If I may ask who do you consider true Americans and who do you not? Is it just that they're not communists?

>Journalists and historians have often referred to Senator Joseph McCarthy’s “list” as if it were a precisely defined entity. It was not, however. Certainly one would put his “numbered” list of eighty-one cases, given in a Senate speech of February 20, 1950, as the prime candidate for being McCarthy’s “list.” But McCarthy himself quickly added several dozen more names to this list in communications to a subcommittee of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee (commonly referred to in the press as the “Tydings Committee” from its chairman, Senator Millard Tydings). The Tydings subcommittee in its “State Department Employee Loyalty Investigation” inquired into Senator McCarthy’s charges.

>Most but not all of Senator McCarthy’s numbered cases were drawn from the “Lee List” or “108 list” of unresolved DOS security cases compiled by the investigators for the House Appropriates Committee in 1947. Robert E. Lee was the committee’s lead investigator and supervised preparation of the list. The Tydings subcommittee also obtained this list. The Lee list, also using numbers rather than names, was published in the proceeding of the subcommittee.[1]

>Senator McCarthy furnished the Tydings Committee the real names attached to his numbered cases, and the Tydings Committee received the real names attached to the Lee list as well.[2] Over the years that followed all of the names became public one way or another.

>Additionally, in a series of speeches McCarthy named others as secret Communists, spies, security risks, or participants in the Communist conspiracy. Below these various lists are recapitulated. Only those he named from 1950 through 1952 (prior to become chairman of the Senate Governmental Operations Committee) will be considered here. (All lists will be alphabetical.)

IT wasn't even a concrete list. Just an adhoc list of names that he slapped on haphazardly as time went on.

Call me when SCOTUS gets to define words for reasons outside of their own personal political definitions. Sedition is and forever will be the act or speech regarding the overthrow of government. Just because SCOTUS changed THEIR definition so their commie brethren don't go to prison doesn't make the definition different anymore than your personal definition of me disagreeing with SCOTUS makes me seditious.

>>2770487
Good question and I don't have a full answer. What I will say is that this country was founded upon Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. The very basic premises of Marxist Communism seek to deny me of all three and thus communists are not true Americans. The sad reality is that the politics of certain activist groups within the judiciary made it so said ideologies were not considered as dangerous as they are and that is unfortunate. The other anon is a commie stooge doing his damndest to uphold that idea.

They were secret groups. Secrecy was part of their bag.

What he did do successfully was cry havoc and scare them into hiding for a generation.

There's lots of lists out there. People like lists. But most of the lists are never used.

>Article 3, section 1
Article 3, section 1 doesn't give SCOTUS the right to define words outside of the court. In fact, all it does is give SCOTUS the right rule on cases. It doesn't even give SCOTUS the ability for Judicial Review.

>>2770562
Liberty. I can see where you're going with this and it's a faulty premise. See communism doesn't actually allow for liberty. I have no problem with communitarianism if you want to go down that route. However, when your ENTIRE ideology is about denying the liberty of others and refusing to acknowledge their rights, you don't get rights of your own.

Wrong. Article 3 invests, and does not create authority. There is only one source of pre-existing judicial authority to "invest" into the judiciary, which is judicial authority as practiced in the colonies under English Common Law. That did in fact give them the power to define statutory/constitutional (since the distinction was much less clear in ECL) law, since the overwhelming majority of said laws in ECL were judicially constructed, Parliament mostly focusing on other things. To deny them this power is to absurdly insist to ridiculous concepts like there being no laws against murder, robbery, arson, etc in the U.S. until you started seeing consolidated penal statutes in the mid-late 19th century.

These are just echoes of communism from the past. Ghosts.

99% of the 'commies' today got lured in to fight nazis. Who were just copies of photographs from the past.

It's all just echoes. And you're scared enough that you want to go full fascism and right now and start opening the camps?

We need these idiots lol to help us Make America Great Again.

We can't just remove one half of our brain because it thinks uncomfy thoughts. We need dissent. We thrive on it.

Lord save me front the world where everyone gets along all of the time.

Not in the constitution, completely fucking irrelevant to these United States. You're basing your whole shtick on SCOTUS amassing more power for itself against the idea of what it was supposed to be. Living documentarians need to die.

>>2770599
You say that like it's relevant. A communist is a communist. On top of this, once again, dissent is much different than sedition.

Of the 159 persons listed above, there is substantial evidence that nine assisted Soviet espionage against the United States: Lauchlin Currie, Harold Glasser, Gerald Graze, Standley Graze, Many Jane Keeney, David Karr, Robert T. Miller, Franz Neumann, and William Remington. David Zablodowsky is a tenth ambiguous case.

Some of the others were security risks. To say that someone was a security risk is not to say that that person is a proven or even most likely a Soviet espionage source. It is only to say that in matters of national security “better safe than sorry” is a principle. Risks should be minimized by excluding those persons from employment in positions where they would have access to sensitive information.

Risk factors vary from the purely personal to the ideological. Entirely patriotic and loyal persons may have risk factors that make them a security risk. Someone with a history of financial irresponsibility (chronic gambling, bankruptcy) may be tempted by financial gain to betray secret without regard to their patriotism. Someone with close relatives living in a hostile foreign nation may be vulnerable to blackmail due to coercive threats against those family members.

And, of course, someone with ideological sympathy for a hostile foreign power may be tempted to betray by appeals to that ideology. Obviously, in the Cold War between the Communist bloc and the West, persons with Communist or pro-Communist ideological sympathies were security risks due to the possibility of ideological recruitment by Communist intelligence officers. Indeed, the great majority of American, several hundred, now known to have assisted Soviet espionage in the United States in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s were motivated by ideology and many were secret members of the CPUSA.[54]

Many, but certainly not all, of those in the above lists had in their background some ideological security risk factors. A few were established as having been members of the Communist Party, USA (CPUSA) or the Young Communist League. Many had belonged to a number of special purpose organizations, some closely, some not so closely, aligned with the CPUSA, were know to former co-workers as pro-Soviet, or had other signs of Communist sympathies. In some cases those affiliations were recent or ongoing. Frederick Schuman, for example, had a long and enduring history of intense Communist sympathies. With others, however, their affiliation with the Communist left were youthful and a decade or more in the past, and the person may have abandoned those views. Stephen Brunauer, for example, had been in the Young Communist League in the late 1920s but appears to have abandoned the movement by the early 1940s and in 1946 the U.S. government sent him to Hungary (he was Hungarian born) to assist in the escape of Hungarian scientists from Communist Hungary. There were also cases were some association legitimately raised security risk concerns but on inspection, the association appears to have been coincidental. For example McCarthy number case # 1 (Lee list # 51) Herbert Fierst, socialized with and was associated at work with several persons known to be linked to Soviet intelligence. But on examination, Fierst’s association appeared to have been no more than that: social and related to his official duties. Among other points, he was a firm supporter of Zionism, an ideological attribute not merely distrusted but hated by Soviet intelligence.[55]

>>2770637
It would take an extensive review of each person separately to come to a firm view on each case, and in a number of cases the passage of time might make reaching a firm conclusion impossible. My own view is that a number of those on the lists above, perhaps a majority, likely were security risks, but others, a minority but a significant one, likely were not, and some, Drew Pearson, Dean Acheson, and George Marshall for eample, certainly were not.

Well I use the women and children killed during airstikes on terrorists gambit.

What the FUCK were they doing so close to terrorists?

probably being their wives and children.

or alternatively, had nothing to do with the terrorists and didn't plan their entire lives around their potential proximity to terrorists.

You are wrong and retarded to boot. https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/articleiii

> Living documentarians need to die.
Please don't use terms that you have no idea what they mean. It just makes it even more annoying to talk to you.

For fuck's sake, you need to have some context of what "Judicial power" is, since it in and of itself is nowhere defined within the text of the constitution. How the fuck do you escape the conclusion that it's SCOTUS that makes those sorts of definitions?

National socialism, especially strasserism/rohmism, is the biggest menace the jews could dream of. It completely shatters their spooky premise that if you're a nationalist you have to be a bourgeoise lackey and that socialism not only can be achieved without the jews, but in fact the only way to achieve it properly is if you remove them.
