Match the labels with the witch hunt they describe

Question

Targeted political outsiders
Both
Red scare
Salem witch trials

Answer 1

Here's how the labels match the witch hunts:

• Targeted political outsiders: Red scare
• Both: Salem witch trials (while primarily focused on social and religious outsiders, it did also involve political elements)
• Red scare: This specifically targeted individuals perceived as communists or communist sympathizers, often for political reasons.
• Salem witch trials: Primarily focused on individuals accused of witchcraft, many of whom were outsiders in their community.

So the matching would be:

• Targeted political outsiders - Red scare
• Both - Salem witch trials
