I still can't understand how the hippies from the 60s morphed into today's Republicans in the great USA.
From a proud hippy from that generation.
Nah, for the most part they were the ones on the sidelines. They didn't get the girls, they were the wallflowers in the classroom, they were in the grey mass that watched as we danced, played sports and lived. Their admiration of our lifestyle turned to bitter resentment and an urge to repress everyone else's freedoms. Bitter, old fashion, resistant to change - these aren't the people you see in the photos.
