With some very few exceptions (including the drafted hippies); hippies were the anti-war movement.
The first hippies started as a movement speaking out against the Vietnam war and against American civil inequality. The first ones came to protest the establishment- but later on, hippies just became bums who no longer had a cause and were only in it for the music sex and drugs.
See website: Anti-War Protests
It is related because Woodstock festival 1969 was a protest to pull soldiers from the Vietnam War, which was happening at that time. However, the main focus of the festival was aimed to support love, peace and freedom so the "hippies" objected to war and any discrimination. That is why a lot of loving happened at Yasgur's farm.
Q who was the victor of the Vietnam war? A I have no idea who won the Vietnam war!!!!
When the Vietnam War passed into history, so did the hippies.
There were drafted hippies in the infantry in Vietnam; they were good men.
Nahhh chill.
Most of the hippies and liberals did not support the Vietnam. that's why we pulled out of Vietnam during the war. we did not pull out in world war one and world war 2 because america was geared in for the war, but Vietnam, not all of america was in for it.
Vietnam veterans, Hippies, and some politicians.
Draft dodgers, Doves, Hippies, Protesters, etc.
Hippies were against the draft during the Vietnam War because it represented the government's forced involvement in a war they opposed. They believed in nonviolence and rejected the idea of being conscripted to fight in a war they did not support. The draft also symbolized the establishment and authority that hippies were generally against.

hippies, people who were against the Vietnam war, people who were themselves and not like other conservative people.
The plane a solider took at the end of this tour. Soliders often dreamed of freedom birds because they took them out of harms way.
