A lot of old, former hippies vote Republican these days, unfortunately.

You are definitely pulling that one out of your ass.

Nope, not at all. I know several former hippies (parents of friends and family) who are very GOP.

My dad (big hippie, but barely a boomer) actually voted for Trump in 1, but now really regrets it and gets stoked about every court case against him
