Changes

The '''Hippie''' or '''Counter Culture''' subculture originated in the mid 1960s, in rebellion to modernity and moderation, or as the Hippies put it, to "all repressive hierarchical power structures since these are adverse to the hippie goals of peace, love and freedom." <ref>http://www.hippy.com/hippyway.htm</ref>

Hippies were noted for their [[liberal]] stance, including psychedelic [[music]], sexual freedom, [[drug]] use (particularly [[LSD]]), and rejecting what they saw as the [[materialism|materialistic]] values of the society around them. The non-violent movement was largely in response to the [[Vietnam War]] and used the slogan "[[peace]] and [[love]]" and "make love not [[war]]".

Many of the elements of hippie counterculture, such as an anti-corporate ideology and the [[anarchy|anarchic]], experimental, [[libertarian|libertarian]] strands, have stayed with hippies as they grew up. Many aspects of alternative lifestyles that were shocking in the 1960s have now become somewhat acceptable in [[liberal society]] and amongst those influenced by [[Hollywood values]], such as recreational use of drugs and a loose attitude towards sex. <ref> http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1612717,00.html </ref>
