I mean, that’s the work of propaganda. An anticommunist hardly knows what they stand against; and yet they will attack communism, even without knowledge of its terms, inner workings and intellectual history. I agree with you, but I think this phenomenon refers more broadly to the effects of anticommunist propaganda on the peoples of Earth, rather than only the American people. Anti-intelectualism in only part of it. The Americans were only more brutally affected by it, being at the seat of the Empire and all.

Not really arguing anything; I guess I just wanted to rant for a bit.
