“...and challenging the establishment.
The conservative VERSION of the hippie.”
So that’s the standard? Both challenged things? Both protested? I guess I’m like a bear, as well, because we both have teeth.
We have to move away from this romanticization of the hippie. He is not the only historical rebel, and not even a very good rebel at that. Turned establishment in the blink of an eye.
So that’s the standard? Both challenged things? Both protested?
Sure. One side has had a monopoly on the protest.
Now the tables have turned.
It’s not that difficult to understand.
“One side has had a monopoly on the protest.”
No they haven’t. They never did. No reason to pretend that’s the way it was just because they keep telling us via all their retrospective documentaries and manipulative dramatizations.

One fires a weapon for freedom.
One fires a weapon for collectivism.
It’s still a weapon.

The hippie liberal believes this whether it be true or not. The hippie liberal is now having to take a big drink of conservative protest.
Whether, it be pure propaganda, or not, the left has USED this tactic for years and now are getting a taste of their own medicine.

I sent Joel a reply urging him to read “The Road to Serfdom” and “Liberal Fascism.” It’s clear that most conservative-haters like Joel have absolutely no idea what modern conservatism is about. In short, they’re pathetically ignorant. No use getting too mad at them, as you would not get too mad at a child because he doesn’t understand why he has to obey the rules. Explain the rules in a moderate voice, so the child can understand.
