Too bad all of the hippies got disillusioned and became CEOs. Unless I'm mistaken, every generation since has gone more to the left on aggregate. Fucking boomers.

It wasn't the same people. There's just a lot of Boomers who lie about having been a hippie because it's cool to have been a hippie now, but it was very unpopular at the time.

Mark my words, in 30 years everyone old will say they used to be a hacker.

There was absolutely overlap. One of them is one of my parents.

Though I'm sure "finding Jesus" in the late 80s/early 90s didn't help.
