你如果读了点历史书籍就不会这样说话了,我读过张纯如写钱学森的专著Thread of the Silkworm,虽然沒读完。作为你追捧的麦卡锡主义的知名受害者钱学森,他开始是不愿意回国的,他一直在准备申请美国公民。麦卡锡主义把他逼得死去活来,他才通过太太在欧洲的亲戚全面倒向GCD。当年他只是参加过南加州的一个左倾的讨论组,麦卡锡主义就对他百般挑剔,失去人身自由,试想即使现在美国的一流大学的校园也是左倾激进人士的领地。
“Tsien’s willingness for public service was described by von Kármán:
“I was pleased to take him along with me to Germany toward the war’s end to look into Hitler’s secret technical developments. With Drs. Hugh Dryden and Frank Wattendorf, Tsien inspected the famous Kochel and Otztal wind tunnels, which were to influence Wattendorf into suggesting similar equipment in the United States and give rise to Arnold Engineering Center in Tullahoma. He was with me at Gottingen when I found myself in the position of interrogating my old teacher Ludwig Prandtl. What a strange meeting: my most brilliant student, who was to join Red China, together with my own great teacher, who worked for Nazi Germany. How odd of circumstance to separate three aerodynamicists who wanted nothing more in life than to work together in harmony.” (这里卡门感叹,自己曾几何时能重返德国审讯当年的德国导师,而自己的得意学生却加入到红色中国)。
Von Kármán wrote of Tsien, "At the age of 36, he was an undisputed genius whose work was providing an enormous impetus to advances in high-speed aerodynamics and jet propulsion. “Furthermore, the American journal Aviation Week & Space Technology named Qian its Person of the Year in 2007, and commented on his interrogation of von Braun, "No one then knew that the father of the future U.S. space program was being quizzed by the father of the future Chinese space program.”
"It was the stupidest thing this country ever did," former Navy Secretary Dan Kimball later said, according to Aviation Week. "He was no more a Communist than I was, and we forced him to go."。
回复 'westshore' 的评论 :
麦卡锡主义在美国有相对深刻的反省,尤其是他利用对共产主义的恐惧破坏了美国的社会文化,把美国引入了类似中国文革那种抓阶级敌人的环境,you sir,have no decency,这句对他的评语之所以有名,就是准确地描述了麦卡锡的人性丑恶。
Well said.
Wikipedia definition of McCarthyism:
McCarthyism is the practice of making accusations of subversion or treason without proper regard for evidence.

没办法,有些华人就想当“荣誉白人”,类似被大学授予荣誉博士的概念。不同的是被大学授予荣誉博士的人不会把这东西当真,但荣誉白人却是某些人的追求目标和自我定位(当年有所谓融入主流的无聊说法)。
其实是属于边缘人心态。
