Why is mccarthyism considered a witch hunt

it is considered a witch hunt because he was hunting everyont that he thought was apart of communism and trying to bring the United States down so Russia can take over. He also said that he had a list of people that is working for the white house that is communist; but nobody ever seen that list.

Hope this helps

where is the diagram

when people started to question traditional christian beliefs, they became criminals in the eyes of the church: they were accused of heresy and then, executed. the church held unbelievable power and anyone who tried to defy it or its beliefs, was demonized and persecuted.
