Like I think that it's time for another human be in 😊, we need some thing like that. Have a gathering of the tribes again and show the government once again that there's still a hippie movement out there. ❤ from Marysville, California
I believe LSD can aggravate mental problems. I took it long ago (I am as old as dirt now) and it caused me trouble, mostly confusion, but I do not advocate using it in general. My opinion of Timothy Leary is that although he was brilliant in some ways, he was also quite crazy!
Indeed because that time not like now wher most people stay in side and look on laptop and phone all day we need more flowers in the hair more love and harmonie ❤️🌼🌹💐🌻🌞
I think they spent a lot more time outside, and/or moving their bodies-dancing (yes also chilling, but both!) and they ATE TO LIVE, as it should be, not like these days where unsatisfied and/or overworked and/or greedy people LIVE TO EAT... Of course substance abuse may play a role in some being skinny, however, let's not overlook the fact that it can also play a role in being over your natural body weight... There are plenty of 'drug abusers' in modern society, and plenty that are overweight from it. Depends how your metabolism or body make up. There probably wasn't a McD's or Dunk'n donuts on every corner back then... Hello consumerism.
I was the same age or a little younger than these people but I never, ever felt like running off and living like that because I didn't want to hurt my beloved parents. And eventually this "life style" turned into Charles Manson and his murdering cult. Not for me and never would be. I enjoyed the clothes and music though!!!
Hippy culture didn't lead to Charles Manson. He saw its values as something he could exploit when it came to young females and naive youth. Charles Manson was a scumbag long before hippy culture happened, and he would have continued to be one without it. Go on any video of him ranting his crackpot philosophies, and you'll find people still falling for it to this day. American history is teeming with killers. Manson was just another in a long line. There are others who've done far worse than him without ever becoming anything like as infamous. The truth is he was a convenient poster boy for those threatened by hippy ideals who wanted it destroyed completely.
@@simonsimon325 I agree. There was a fear back then that hippies were actually a communist plot. In reality it was a youthful rebellion against the stultifying blandness of middle class existence. Another motivating factor was the injustice of young men being drafted to fight and die in a pointless war. Hippies terrified the ruling class and because of that paranoia, they went to great lengths to suppress and then co-opt the movement.
60 years ago good ol fashioned acid. The stuff we did in eighties was generic. It was GREAT high microdot. But the high was short four hrs instead of eight. Although I remember orange eagle (it was orange sunshine) Standing in front 711 store was melting like paint colors, ice cream . Across street ,a bus stop crowd awaiting, was picked up swallowed by a whale. The gigantic tail moving slowly waving up, down, the street traffic
It doesn't matter if some of their political ideals were unworkable. The important thing is youth should push boundaries. They should rebel. They should innovate. They should challenge conventional wisdom. That's their role. On a fundamental level, that's why we reproduce every 25 years or so. We should be far more concerned when youth starts espousing conservativism.
I've always been very interested in this movement; but looking at a lot of these people you can understand why they had so much conflicts with family, etc where they came from: a lot of these people are not only unattractive but annoying! Really hate to say that.😐
The cool people were either at the beach, at home listening to the music or trying to play it or had moved themselves around the corner away from the film crew leaving the not-stoned "see me" crowd comfortably in front of the cameras. 😄
@@itchcock1 LOL, thats an interesting take. I see your point, and referring to the "see me" crowd is how I would describe a lot of the people that came after the hippie movement, but still were wanting to maintain that air of being one. The "see me" crowd you could call "faux hippies" today, more interested in the fashion and look and the performance aspects of being a hippie. Real hippies to me were grunge, not "dress up".
These hippies dancing make Elaine look like a ballroom dancer.🙉
I can smell them through the screen
"We would all like to live an uncluttered life" says Jerry Garcia. That comment sure resonates strong today!!! What a peaceful person he was!

Everyone was either on drugs or starving. Easy to stay thin in that situation!🙄

1:33. Watch this in slow motion and you will see his eyes shape shift. No lie.
Could San Francisco take another be in? Just wondering.🤔
No. It's not the same now. The original movement can't be repeated.
@@matthatter2849 we are in desperate need of some change. look at the two monsters we have to choose from in november.
No. Too much violent crime.
@@AnsonBeeker very little violent crime, probably less than where you live.

30:48 what is going on here? 😂 Perhaps you edit it out along with the repeat of the episode at the end and then reUpload?
Yeah...... that worked out well, for men.
What do you mean?
*looks out the window at all the people puking and shitting on the street* yeah it all worked out great for men, everyone's doing great...
6:00 hmmmm, interesting way of framing the governments, er, "concern" for society
Was this the begining of the end ?

new age/witchcraft very popular among hippies.. not so hip. many times, these people give off bad vibes.
