As the Vietnam War raged in 1969, John Lennon and his wife Yoko Ono held two week-long Bed-ins for Peace, one at the Hilton Hotel in Amsterdam and one at the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in Montreal, each of which were intended to be nonviolent protests against wars, and experimental tests of new ways to promote peace. The idea is derived from a "sit-in", in which a group of protesters remains seated in front of or within an establishment until they are evicted, arrested, or their demands are met
They spent their honeymoon in the presidential suite (Room 702) at the Amsterdam Hilton Hotel for a week between March 25 and 31, inviting the world's press into their hotel room every day between 9 a.m. and 9 p.m.

During April 1969, Lennon and Ono sent acorns to the heads of state in various countries around the world in hopes that they would plant them as a symbol of peace.

Because hippies are just white people who didn't like their parents. By and large, they were the same as their parents or worse. They took some ideas from various eastern philosophies and just applied them randomly outside the original context with no concern. They took drugs and treated this as revolutionary at a time when people were fighting and dying in the streets for basic rights. They considered themselves wordly and educated because they lived in a van for a week. They thought war was just dick measuring rather than about real material concerns. In short, they were white boomers.
