While watching the movie, I couldn't help but think about
@risenc.bsky.social's new book "Red Scare: Blacklists, McCarthyism and the Making of Modern America" and how dubious, unsubstantiated rumors could ruin lives and careers. #BookSky

This is not new. I just finished Margaret Atwood's "Alias Grace" (1996, based on real events) and, as far as I'm concerned, the media circus surrounding the 1843 Richmond Hill murders was huge. But with social media this has taken an enormous dimension. By the way, I loved the book. #BookSky
