The war continued a few more years after drafting was over. That tells me a lot of the anti-war hippies weren't anti-war as long as someone else was going.

When I was in college around 1970, I didn’t know any hippies, but I can tell you the Vietnam War was not very popular with those of us in the draft pool. And while I don’t remember going to any antiwar protests, the Kent State shootings made an impression. It is funny my kids assume there was no sex, drugs or rock and roll back then. Have they never watched an Austin Powers movie? Or Cheech and Chong? I did know one kid in college, his dad owned an engineering company and promised to sign it over to the kid the day he graduated with an engineering degree. It took him 5 years, but he got the degree, and the dad kept his word. The kid immediately sold the company and went to Canada to avoid the draft. The other thing I remember was he drove a Shelby AC Cobra. Not a Shelby Mustang, an actual AC Cobra.

IMO, the boomer generation being anti-war hippies was simply a matter of optics because those are the people who were making the news. Overall it's a conservative age group. A slight majority of boomers voted for Richard Nixon.

Hippies, acid, and Hitler's people car bug should get thrown in there too. Okay now I am having too much fun :-P Every "generation" feels the one before it shafted them and the older generation always feels like they are better than the one they gave birth to. But apparently you don't have to be a baby boomer anymore to have a kid say "okay boomer" to you. One of my sons said that to me this weekend... and while I don't feel like I identify with millennials I technically am one. So take that baby boomers :-D <https://atheral.co/wp-content/uploads/Atheral-Logo-Vertical-Grad-150px-x-86px.png> Daniel White Co-Founder phone: +1 (702) 470-2770 direct: +1 (702) 470-2766 Ken Hohhof <mailto:af...@kwisp.com> December 7, 2020 at 09:58 Millennials seem to believe all their problems are because their generation got screwed over by the baby boomers. Not sure where this comes from, but it seems to be accepted fact among Bernie supporters. Like I have student debt and a crummy job and no love life because of the damn baby boomers. Good luck telling them they’re lazy, you’ll get about the same reaction as telling someone from the MAGAverse to wear a mask. Or yeah yeah yeah, old man, I know, get off your lawn, and you used to walk 5 miles to school uphill both ways.

Like why reward laziness/hangovers. But if they are really sick, stay home and recuperate. Had 4 like that this morning. One is recovering from gall bladder surgery last week, so it is understandable. Not sure about the rest. Monday absenteeism after a payday smacks of drug usage in my opinion. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
