And your apparent inability to think from outside your own shoes (psychotherapy didn't work on you, so it's rotten; "consumers" are their worst enemies because you are a green shopper; workers choose wage slavery because you don't; big government is bad because you don't like it, etc.) also strikes me as fundamentally conservative.
The world is more complicated than the sum of free individual choices. "Turn on, tune in, drop out" has always been bad and self-defeating advice. It's "get a job" in reverse.
Scratch a hippie, find a Republican. We need heretics, not renegades.
