article focuses too much on America
Red scare, and the first wave in particular wasn'nt an purely American phenomenon, like this articles makes it out to be. It was a worldwide phenomenon that dominated politics in the west in the 20th century. Communist parties in Europe in the interwar period surged in popularity and became banned in Germany,France,Italy and the Baltic States. Communists also set up paramilitaries in the interwar period with a motive to bring a "socialist revolution". Why is this not mentioned?
The many attempted revolutions of 1917-1923 ? The Spanish Civil war? Nazi Germany's ambition to free the world of communism? No mention at all!
The american bias in this article must be undone
- The article does seem to focus too much on America. X-Editor (talk) 17:57, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
- The bulk of academic references to the "Red Scare" refer to a historical phenomenon in the United States, there are not many reliable sources to expand the scope of the article beyond this. The articles for red-baiting and anti-communism exist and one is linked in the disambiguation. Feel free to find reliable sources that exactly use the wording "Red Scare" internationally, not as a rough analogy in quotes, and there will be much fewer than you think. Check this Wiki article in other languages and they all refer to two specific historical periods in the US. - Rauisuchian (talk) 08:31, 4 January 2022 (UTC)

Second Red Scare (1947–1957) vs. McCarthyism ?
There exists McCarthyism and the section in this page. Are the both terms synonims or there exists a difference between them? Xx236 (talk) 06:43, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
