    I feel like we on the left don't spend enough time shitting on subcultures that aren't left enough.

        I don't think many hippies exist any more as part of an actual social phenomenon. Anyone who intentionally adopts the dress and mannerisms is pining after decades past.

        I think we just have a strong urge to disavow ourselves from an aesthetic we see as misfired, hypocritical, and corrupted to the right, which is fair, but the real story is more complicated. If you wanna claim they all went Q go for it, but I need more than anecdotes to believe they didn't just split in a ton of directions.
