why don't people like hippies?
    #10505144 -

Aside from some having hygiene issues, why don't people like hippies?  I don't get it.  Maybe I share too many 'hippie' values to not be able to take on the anti-hippie perspective, but damn, what is so bad about being a 'hippie'?

From my experience people hate hippies because generally hippies don't give a shit about anything .

that seems to be the general hippie attitude. but in america we are taught that you have to over dramatize about everything -------which is another reason I think many people hate marijuana- but that's just one reason that I love it :potleaf:

They are too idealistic and expect everyone to live like they do? I don't really know either.

Their views on: Politics, society, music, work, human interaction and human nature, the world.
I could probably think of a few more but the biggest one falls under "society" I suppose. Hippies are pretty fucking condescending too in my experience.

Exactly.  They seem to be all about peace, love and harmony so why all the negativity thrown their way?

Maybe it's like Bill Hicks said, all the people who tell us that it's just a ride get killed.  Maybe the part of us that is attached to dwelling in the negative hates the opposing forces, entities, or ideas, the things that tell us or make us think "hey, maybe we shouldn't take life so seriously and instead try to enjoy it a little bit more instead of stressing"

I think maybe hippies and their values (along with psychedelics) just challenge the security of our society's structure, and people are scared of the change.

condescending towards you as an individual entity, or just condescending towards the silly seriousness of your ideas?

Hippies are retards!

I can't stand alot of the "hippies" around my area because they are mostly just assholes that think they are better than everyone because of the way they choose to live their life.

Sounds just like everybody else in the world though...

Then I drive away in my solar powered piece of shit car, cool stuff man.

And then I go kill a bitch because the flaming orb in the sky told me to do so, and I don't know, oppress a few minorities here and there in the name of nuclear fusion?

Religion is fun.

Condescending towards those who aren't willing to change their views of reality to better fit theirs.
That happens to include me, but not just me as an individual.

elitist hippies suck, but you can always simply ignore them - they are better then violent alcoholics at least

Hippies oppose materialism. The U.S. is all about materialism. That's probably the main reason.

Everything they stand for is against the status quo. it's inevitable that they are hated
