I have never met a boomer who claimed to have been a hippy or gone to Woodstock or Altamont. My theory is that they all died of heroin overdoses or AIDS in the 1980s.
>>535985141In the 90s there was a big '60s revival as boomers entered middle age. Lots of boomers I met talked about Woodstock and festivals and the 60s, etc. but even that was 30 years ago. Also I live in the northeast so a higher concentration would have gone to Woodstock. Likely a significant amount of them are already dead by now.
>>535985333I was born and raised in upstate New York near Woodstock and I literally have never met someone who attended the festival. I am a bit younger than you (born 1988).
>>535985141They transformed to boomers who /pol so much hates.
>>535985141You also should know than more than half of boomers are already dead....so it correlate with your theory nicely.
>>535985414Oh sure, but that wouldn't be where a big concentration of attendees would have come from. Hell, it's not that populated up there in general. But the metro NY/NJ area? Oh yeah, lots of people from this region went to Woodstock. I'm '82 Jersey Shore.

>What happened to hippies?they became normal people, had jobs and families.> that subculture just disappeared!
>>535985141>hippyhippie. hippy means wide hips
>>5359854141 year younger here, when I was a teen I'd a friend that the father had bought a ticket but he didn't manage to get a plane ticket in time.He became a painter, like in the trade not in the art-fag type. But he was still a musician with long hair and stuff.then again, even if hippies in huezil did drug, it would be shrooms, weed and maybe even the exotic VHS tape tea.
>>535985141lol no. My uncle was a full on hippy, London, Haight-Ashbury, VW camper van to India, the whole 9 yards.Heres what actually happened.He came back from India, sold his van in Earl's Court, cut a haircut and a suit, applied for a job on the Friday, interview and hired on the Monday, career as a civil servant in the Treasury.You've made the mistake of thinking there were any consequences, there weren't for boomers, they were given a million second chances.Obviously if I see an internship I don't like the look of in your CV, AI says no, sorry, no job ever.
>>535985141If they're still alive they're barely coherent, and their kids stowed them away in an old folks home where, hopefully, they're getting their asses beat by Nurse Obobowewe.
I met some old hippies, some if whom attended Woodstock , about 20 of them. For them it was just another music festival and the weather made everything suck. So they did their best to have fun in the mud. They said that the documentary movie made it seem more epic than it really was. One ex hippie dude was an asshole, and everyone else were cool.
>>535985141they became lawyers and supreme court justices and politicians and the largest CEOs in the country taking credit for other people's work
>>535985456and by "/pol" you surely meant the young hippies who will die the way old hippies didfucking retards will never learn
>>535985141A lot of "hippies" were just degenerate homeless drug abusers, several years older than the young people they supposedly represented.

Hippies were a reaction to the straitlaced 50s and 60s. Obviously it was a generational thing that had no appear to younger people whose earliest memories were of the hippy 70sThose guys became punks or skins
They own California.
>>535985757Boomer literally had years of gaps in their resumes and expect millennials to have none.
>>535985662Your mom was hippy, and that's why I fucked her until my dick was raw, son.
>>535985141THEY GREW UP. BY 1980 THE HIPPIES WERE ALL IN THEIR MID TO LATE 20s AND FINALLY REALIZED THEY COULDN'T LIVE IN A BUS AND EAT CRACKERS WHILE NOT SHOWERING ANYMORE TO RAISE A FAMILY DUE TO MANY OF EM GETTING KNOCKED UP.IN OTHER WORDS THEY REALIZED IN THE REAL WORLD YOU GOTTA WORK TO SURVIVE LOL.
>>535985709>exotic VHS tape teawut?
Old fart here.My long ago landscaping boss went to Woodstock. He had to abandon his car and walk there and recalls how he had to walk over a slight noll which blocked his vision and suddenly on the other side were a lot of naked women frolicking in the muck. He just kept repeating how much mud there was, and how many naked women. Never mentioned the music. I guess when he was younger he did a lot of drugs and women. He told me this about 1982 when he was a greying, gangly gnarly farmer type.
