"All hippies are basically degenerate backstabber grifters and the peace and love aesthetic hides a really gritty underbelly."

They are unaccountable, duplicitous clodhoppers that stink of patchouli

Anyone who says β€œall β€œ is obviously biased to their opinion.IMO.

The real freaky peace and love folks are theater kids

Stupid. I know plenty of hippies who are not that.

The worst social experiences I've ever had are trying to show up and integrate with people who **present themselves** as hippies. They end up being the least kind, least honest, least welcoming, gossipy, and even cruel people I've ever encountered.

He done forgot about this song. To be a boomer is to want it both ways at all times.

In a city outside my hometown, most people called them "gutter punks". I suppose it was a type of hippie. One time I saw one throwing dirt all on himself before going to ask for money.

The hippies wanted something better.

They became aware that the system was corrupt & broken.

They knew the money was poison & yet they tried to build on top of it or next to it because they had no alternative.

The hippy movement would have unfolded differently had they built on top of Bitcoin.

Peace & love are important but fiat corupts all it touches.
