The Red Scare and McCarthyism had a profound impact on American society, fostering fear, suspicion, and paranoia regarding communism. It led to heightened political repression, censorship, and the blacklisting of individuals suspected of communist sympathies.

It also fueled anti-communist sentiment and shaped Cold War-era policies and attitudes.
