    There will always be people that you can call"hippies", they are living with the same ideas, they are the ones that refuse an hypocritical system that is not human and tries to control the individual..
    There will always be people that try to re-create their culture and that do not accept the norm and the role the system want to force on them, they are there, in this world, and I think they are more and more numerous, because the level of consciousness is growing and the interest for all kind of "hippy things" is increasing..Take the off grid people, take the no-meat eaters, take the organic food, take the Montessori or Waldorf schools, everywhere around us, we can see numerous initiatives to go round that system..
    You can find hippy-minded persons in a lot of diffrent countries, people creating ecovillages, rasta people as well, the rasta movement can be compared to the hippy movement for a lot of things..
    We will probably find a way to stick to our values and lifestyle, close to Mother Earth, and use certain things from the system that can help to spread our ideas..
    But the hippy revolution is growing, no matter the name you are giving to it, the tree is growing from that seed that has been planted in the sixties, the inspiration is there forever..

    They say the first thing you learn about systems logic is that half the world doesn't even know such a thing is possible, but its about to introduce the next scientific revolution where logic revolves around bullshit, or what's missing from this picture. Just by viewing everything as a bit more organic and far-out, freaky, and funky for sure every hippie cultivates systems logic whether they realize it or not and the sciences will become all that much more approachable when they acquire their own Yogi Berra and Yoda mixed with Frank Zappa and Stephen Wright swinging existentialist style of humor all revolving around gentle bullshit and knowing you know nothing. Once the systems logic for a theory of everything is discovered it will start invading everything people create and begin to literally take on a life of its own simply because its a more organic design. IBM's Watson that won Jeopardy surprised everyone again when he acquired a potty mouth. Ironically, conservatives were partly right that Big Bird is a conspiracy by mother nature herself who demands good parenting. Your cellphone, for example, should be able to predict half of anything imaginable and crack jokes that will make anyone hurt themselves laughing as well as tell you just about anything including who is full of bullshit and when a joke may not be just a another stupid joke.

    Sort of Star Trek and Star Wars including Mr Data and Mr Spock with a wild sense of humor that's from another karmic universe with a lot of mind-bending nonlinear temporal dynamics and merging karmic universes almost out of Heinlein's "Number of the Beast". Only to finally end up in Oz realizing they are no longer in Kansas anymore, and its impossible to avoid tourists in karmic universes. Some Rainbow Warriors refer to this as "Childhood's End" is upon us once again when the earth will be reborn because the meek happen to be more social animals that can share a sense of humor.

    is 'hippie' a group of people, or simply a label imposed, on what is essentially an eternal aspect of sapient nature?
    (one of the more positive at that)

    A hippie smokes drugs and wears colorful clothes and throw up peace signs and spit at war veterans.

    Haven't any of you watched Forest Gump?

    being hippy is now a trend that hipster's now join lol hipsters buy pants that fit then role them up so they are too short. spend way to much money on second hand cardigans and grow lush beards that are groomed and manicured lol woah hipsters are everything hipsters disdain.
    I am soul thats adrift on the ocean of life and don't want to be anything or anyone but became what I am by being who I was. that's a hippie

    hippie is just a name, for something that was around long before the term was coined and will remain long after it has been forgotten.
    personally i think the whole stoner scene was a mistake, but it did win a lot of converts.

    really its the other side of a ficticious universe that tries to define itself with little green pieces of paper.
