"Reds under the bed" = Đảng Cộng sản núp gầm giường (từ "reds" tượng trưng cho Đảng Cộng sản). Cụm từ xuất hiện trong Chiến tranh lạnh, khi cho rằng thành viên Đảng Cộng sản ẩn náu trong xã hội tư bản, truyền bá tư tưởng cộng sản, làm kìm hãm Mỹ và các nước tư bản.
Ví dụ
Remembrance is not about a paranoid (hoang tưởng) hunt for ‘reds under the bed’. I’m not suggesting that the Leader of the Opposition is on the level of General Jaruzelski, Poland’s last Socialist dictator.
In a tense back-and-forth between the two, Mr Watt said he was "absolutely astonished (kinh ngạc) at what I'm hearing". "We are at a point in history where the strategic environment facing our country is extremely fragile (mong manh) and we see today a continuation of this 1950s McCarthyist reds under the bed hysteria (kích động) from members of the government,” Mr Watt said.
We seem to have a government more interested in fanning public hysteria over ‘‘reds under the beds’’, almost a new yellow peril (nguy hiểm), all suddenly requiring the Australian people to stand up against the Chinese hordes (bè lũ). It has taken what is a three-out-of-10 challenge to Australian national interests and values and turned it into a nine-out-of-10 existential threat.
