So.. it makes sense right... welfare..cough.. ..cough...
The hippy movement was a dire want and conversion to socialism, is that fair to say?
I once heard a story of some hippies. There was a big group of people sitting in a circle. One person had a apple. That person took 1 byte, passed it to the next, it went all the way around back to the first again. Gross.
Yep you got it. I think 'sense of entitlement' is accurate. The apple story is a great example of the type of personality one has to have to become that type of person. When you think you have the answers, people can be forceful with their ideas. That's arrogance in purity.

Old school hippies probably got props for hugging a black guy. Today, who gives a fuck? Our standards are so much different which is why I think the new generation of hippies has evolved past those dusty concepts in to more important ones.
Yeah, they "evolved" into being judgmental PC hypocrites, the very same type of people they used to despise.
You may be right. Perhaps I'm idealizing my generation's potential like the ones before me.

I'm real about it, I just don't give a shit. Someone who's being paid to clean up after the festival can do it
If you go to someone's house for a party you don't dump all your fucking trash all over the place do you? I don't care if you paid to be there. What you're saying is "I'm fucking awesome, clean up after me or you're a hypocrite." OK there bud.

I pick up trash everywhere I go everyday.
I can never pass up trash at a festival or just in the forest in general without picking it up.

Yeah just at festivals they have clean up crews. Who cares who actually does the cleaning? They hire cleaning crews knowing the spun out crowd isn't going to do all of it

That's terrible logic to justify something ignorant and selfish. Lots of places have janitors but you're still a dick if you purposefully make a mess for them. I don't come to your job and make your day worse. Maybe I should, since it's cool with you. I can bitch to your supervisor about you or something.

Your response is to link my shroomery profile? That doesn't even make sense. You'll learn eventually. People will dislike being around you because of your shitty actions and disrespect. People that run camps at some of the best festivals (ocf, brc) and litter lose their permits the next year. Your litter is not there for other people to pick up. Maybe I'll find out where you live and take a dump on your doorstep every night, and piss on your porch swing. I'd get a kick out of it but you'd likely get pissed after the 2nd or 3rd night.

I think some of the hippie folks really wanted to change the world, I was down with hippies for a very long time. What I experienced from being around those types of people for so long, some really want to use drugs to enhance their view on the world, and to stimulate creativity, and spiritual growth, many just want to get high and turn into wooks, and talk about how hard they raged at the phish show, and how they were super fucked up.
I think the first way of looking at hippies, meaning they used substances and different spiritual practices to be creative, and really wanted to change the world, was what a true hippie is all about. Many older hippies outgrew their drug habits, and instead replaced them with healthy living, and a passion for art/spirituality, and wanting to teach the next generation how to not focus on what the world says we should focus on. It's almost like many of the hippies got swallowed up by the cliche of what a hippie is, you know drugs, sex, rock and roll, that they missed the valuable lessons in front of their eyes because they were to concerned with the little things.
I know people that are clean cut, 9-5 working, white picket fence people that are ten times the "hippie" than those going to shows and raging face every weekend, because those clean cut folks have an outlook on life which promotes positive changes, rather than being concerned about being lord of the wooks. This one guy I knew was like super wook, dreadlocks, massive beard, hemp everything, grew shrooms, grew pot, all the stuff to play the part, but when you talked to him he only cared about himself, and if you had xannie bars or could get some for him, him, him, everything was about him, not very hip if you ask me. I knew so many hippes like that, it got tedious to be around, and depressing to say the least.
I felt like psychedelics had shown me I needed to give back in some way, and the majority of hippies I saw didn't care to be this way. I really believed in that scene, really believed in the grateful dead family outlook on life, but was super distraught when I found out so many didn't care about the be good family way.

I hope so.
It's not that you can't have a good time from using psychedelics, you know laugh, cut loose, etc, it's just that many of the hippies I saw cared nothing for the substances they were using, instead they were just substances used to get fucked up and nothing more.

Whenever I've gone to mainstream festivals they're generally shit holes by the end of it, so I've always just burnt my tent and shit on the last night.
I only really go to independent festivals these days and it'd be wrong to litter there so our group always clean up after ourselves, the majority of people at grassroots festivals are generally respectful of the grounds and the owners.

They are a threat to decency and society but I think President Nixon will deal a swift and decisive blow to these communist heathens.
