Lois Posted December 5, 2018 Let's talk about hippies. There are hippies or sympathies here? This man wrote the book "School of Mages". A book about contemporary hippies and recently a movie was made based on the book. Everything is very shrill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the USSR, there was a hippie organization, which is called the system. BUT it was an informal organization. Few people had an idea about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wu Ming Jen Posted December 8, 2018 Thanks Hippies for the internet and how high were you guys? Thanks for having a cause like equal rights for all colors (especially the psychedelic ones) ending the war, social change, gender equality. You people must have been tripping your lips off. For the new generation just keep track of where your phone is and everything will be OK. Sticks and stones will never hurt you but words will break your bones, each and everyone of them. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redcairo Posted January 22, 2019 I think of myself as "a bit of a hippy." Growing up in coastal mid-southern California is most of that. Time spent places like the Rennaissance Faires after hours playing guitar with a bunch of genuine aging hippies... and profoundly terrible taste in colorful paisley fashion. ;-) Metaphysical at heart. I think in general, closer to communal living would be a good thing for my culture, and on the whole I think many of the hippies had the best intentions. Mind you there were later waves that were more like entitled kids who wanted to be part of it and their descent on places like SF made it a very different world than it had been, from what I've read. I don't think we have a hippy contingent at this point, sadly! RC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
