I am not denying stalins crimes, or maos, they were as bad as hitler, and communism is the very worst form of government, I am opposed to using the fear of said communism, to further ones fascist agenda, which was done under the guise of McCarthyism,

hoover was behind most of this behavior, in his memoirs, harry Truman admits he hated hoover considering him a fascist.
hoover was indeed a blackmailer, see the book " puppetmaster '

ive read kesslers book, im familiar with him. he had written "sins of the father" about joseph p. kennedy. hoover being a homosexual is no myth. this accusation is factual.

im 72 years old, I lived through the fifties, and hoovers image
was a cruel joke on the American public. in future generations
he will be looked upon as a plague on this nation.

that's my humble opinion.
