Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
1) Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
2) No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
3) Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
4) No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
5) No AI generated content.
Content posted must not be created by AI with the intent to mimic the style of existing images

That is part of the problem. You view McCarthyism as a lesson in inhumanity, they view it as a a stepping stone to get what they want.
This goes for every lesson "progressives" think society has learned. Take Vietnam. A lesson in why we shouldn't kill civilians. For them, a lesson in how to keep the public insulated from war.
To say they are garbage people is really too kind.
