Our culture was damaged by the Vietnam war which generated the antiestablishment, antireligion, free sex hippies. I think the counterculture would have happened anyway, but the Vietnam war weaponized it by providing a focal point. Someone said society won’t be normal again until the last hippie dies. We’ll know when that happens because magazines like “GQ” will run articles like “The Hot New Thing in Burials.”
The CIA was responsible for a lot of that 60s-on counterculture crap.
Shame on them. Wisdom comes with age. They should know better.
Country before party.
