An employer has the right to associate and spread any ideas it wants. If you were a hollywood executive and one of your writers started inserting things that you thought were racist you would have the right to fire him. Same thing here, writers were inserting propaganda, the executives didnt like it, so they fired

"McCarthyism" is an anti-concept becuase it is an attack thrown out to slander anybody that accuses anybody of being a communist even if the accusation is 100% true and based on fact. And it was a FACT that all of the people in the Hollywood 10 were commies. Even if you do not agree with the methods, that still does

A few hollywood communists equals stalin because they were trying to bring about communism in this country and destroy any freedom that you or I might value. They were also part of an organization that spied, stole and MURDERED for a foreign power. If thats not worthy of investigation what is?

Nothing wrong with blacklisting, people have a right to associate with whoever they want to associate with for whatever reason.Should we you blacklist people who blacklist?

If they got their way free expression and free assembly would have been destroyed like in russia. If you are for free expression

Really? whats wrong with my motives? I see people and things I value being attacked so I'm here to defend them. I see people worthy of attack, so im here to attack them.

Name? Again, thats not what this committee did. If you want to attack the FBI for that go ahead. But to say that these communist party member were innocent is BS. If they got their way any free expression of ideas would have been destroyed.

Ayn Rand was the perfect person to invite, since she lived under the exact same system that these traitors wanted to bring about in America. If the committee had actually let Rand speak, and let het make the point she wanted to make which was that in a work of art everything that an artist decides to put in it is for
