Hippies are dying off quickly. I think you exaggerated about a bunch of people who may now be in nursing homes.

The protests against the Vietnam War started in American universities. That didn’t happen by coincidence.

They're a cult so they change their beliefs to whatever the leader says.

Because they went from the guys who have to fight in a war to guys who profit from a war.

They were lazy, entitled bums that were brainwashed by college professors. Now the crazy thing is they were right but for the wrong reasons. They are the old idiots mouthing off with TDS today.

Younger boomers were disgusted with them and wound up voting for Reagan.

Real hippies reject the mainstream. They believe in peace, community, and aren’t materialistic.

Because hippies are leftists... and tribalists who hate conservative "Nazis" and Orange Hitler so much, they will take whatever side their team leaders tell them to take... especially when it is in opposition to Trump and Republicans. They have not problem being huge hypocrites when it's their team in charge.

I personally had up-close personal views of the the recent big Elon is a Nazi protests... the majority of the protestors were older people, retirement age.

There's a boomer one neighbourhood away from mine who has flown a Ukraine flag for 4 years now. He's also the first I've seen to have a "NO KINGS IN AMERICA" yard placard. Nasty guy. I like doing the Trump handjob dance when he's out and I jog by.

It's riot season. Doesn't matter why, as long as they get to riot.
