"Since the time of McCarthy, the word "McCarthyism" has entered American speech as a general term for a variety of distasteful practices:  aggressively questioning a person's patriotism, making poorly supported accusations, using accusations of disloyalty to pressure a person to adhere to conformist politics or discredit an opponent, subverting civil rights in the name of national security, and the use of demagoguery are all often referred to as McCarthyism."
