Talk:History of the hippie movement

Trimming edit

I've begun trimming some of the text, especially where there was a main article to refer to for additional info. However, the section on Ken Kesey and the Pranksters had nothing BUT a link to the article, so I provided some text from there. Rosencomet 19:38, 28 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

I disagree with this trimming as this article was split to expand the topic, not limit it. I also notice that you removed the only criticism of the hippies from the articles, giving us a new NPOV issue to deal with. —Viriditas | Talk 17:46, 29 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Festivals edit

I wouldn't say the festival movement started with the Acid Tests, though you could make a case that the Rave movement did. I would date the Festival movement from the Human Be-In.Rosencomet 20:02, 28 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

That sounds right. —Viriditas | Talk 17:47, 29 October 2007 (UTC)Reply
Well, the Acid Tests were earlier. Though it is a matter of opinion which were more relevant precedents.Apostle12 (talk) 17:37, 23 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
Even earlier were the Happenings, which should be added to this article; there are plenty of sources linking them with the hippies. —Viriditas | Talk 14:13, 24 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
Great! I was unaware of these as a distinct early phenomenon.Apostle12 (talk) 18:37, 24 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
They are linked to the beats, but they are considered the earliest manifestation of the proto-hippie by Doyle and others. —Viriditas | Talk 21:27, 24 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

American folk music revival edit

Needs a new section on the relationship between hippies and the American folk music revival and the subsequent emergence of folk rock. —Viriditas | Talk 04:38, 22 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

What is the relation of hippie subculture to QAnon? edit

I don't see the importance or relevance of adding a ridiculous antisemite conspiracy theory as a related topic to a half-relevant subculture built on peace and love (and drugs) of which the largest wave existed nearly 60 years ago. Even MKUltra is dubious, what does QAnon have to do with it? 97.109.180.10 (talk) 20:00, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

The correct article topic is covered at conspirituality. Unfortunately, this is a very real phenomenon. Viriditas (talk) 23:12, 21 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
