    Yes. Their struggle is of the abstract 'freedom' , of the state and government- not class. When the chips fall, it always comes to this idea of the government and authoritarianism rather than class and the relations to the means of production. I always notice they have no qualm about shedding the class kernel within their ideology.

    If you ever remember what it was I'd like to show it to my ex-hippie parents like you house train a puppy.
