In particular, communism (e.g. red scare 1920s). having said that, people like stalin are not entirely without fault either. P.S for what it's worth...idon't think ur mind is that shallow hey, i am studying the cold war at the moment and I think that altho’ there is some gain in thinking about what might have happened if it had not taken place, i don’t think that there is much point. capitalism would still be capitalism and communism would still be communism, and sooner or later, there would have been a clash between them, partly because they are world’s apart in ideological terms, and partly, if u don’t mind me saying this, america has always had, and probably always will have a very cavalier attitude to other ideas.
