the effects and reach of the hippie movement are greatly exaggerated for effect, and most of those folks rejoined society and put on their suit and tie once the acid wore off.

and genX never allowed shit, and neither did we get shit done. we are always as a group outnumbered and outgunned by the generation before us, and the generation after us.

so yeah, we've been unable to effect change, and that's why we are jaded af, and are just tired of giving a shit.

I do what I can in the community I'm in, and that's that
