“And he can’t even run his own life
I’ll be damned if he’ll run mine, sunshine”
I think it is a great tragedy that the 1960s youth movement turned into a Marxist, hedonistic, pro-government, anti-Christian, tribalist nightmare.
Up until about 1968, a lot of the beatnik/hippie/yippie culture was focused on anti-government, self-improvement, personal tranquility and simple social solutions to local problems. But that movement got blown out of the water and many activist Baby Boomers decided to push for Maoist solutions to everything. It became all about running other peoples’ lives, largely as a result of angry individuals who couldn’t run their own.
