The enemy within

2,000 years of witch-hunting in the Western world

Discusses the cultural paranoia based on witch-hunts with a contextualization starting with the early Christians that were persecuted in Rome through the Salem witch trials, McCarthy's search for communists, and other examples of the cultural, psychological, and societal drive of communities to exterminate a perceived evil at any cost.
