Lots of responses that seem to miss: racism. The 60’s you’re referencing is whiteness & whiteness is always racism first. They’re not different than racism we see w/leftists now. My 60’s was fighting against racism & that included fighting against hippies who wielded white-power

Yeah the classic narrative of the transition from the 60s to the 70s is of the "youth movement" "fracturing" due to civil rights and 2nd-wave feminism (or, rather, white guys in the movement taking their ball and going home)
