Arthur Miller's play The Crucible compares McCarthyism to:

World War II, because it divided the entire world.
the American Revolution, because it resulted in increased freedoms for Americans.
the Salem Witch Trials, because many innocent people were accused of crimes without any proof.
the Vietnam War, because it was meant to stop the spread of Communism in Asia.

Answer:

Correct answer is the Salem Witch Trials, because many innocent people were accused of crimes without any proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

Salem Witch trial is the only correct answer as this event from 17th Century was a basis for Miller's book, where he described how witch hunting led to death of many innocent people.

All other answers are wrong as are not a plot of Miller's book.
