60s THEORY
Love is the answer
Timothy leary said we should Tune in , turn on
and drop out.
We get back to American Exceptionalism. We’re going to make a perfect world.
We must grow our own food.
We mustpolute less and have immediate gratification. We must have a commune.
1 --Love is the answer--
What we want is love!!
If we had love, we wouldn’t kill vietnamese! Make love, not war.
With love we wouldn’t try to fill our lives with empty stuff and
kill the environment.
We should love women as people, not objects to use.
why are we afraid of gay people?
What of free love? People who
love are less harmful than people who war. Timothy leary said we should
just “Tune in turn on and drop out”.
Ex #1
Life is work is empty
And, its all about buying things for your house. The new car, the new tv. Because your life is empty.
Dad is a work robot.
Mother is a cook robot. Children
are school robots.
Ex. #2
Cold War
MAD Mutually Assured Destruction
How many dollars do we spend on the military?
How many on schools?
How many people are starving
We don’t hate the russians
and they don’t hate us. The politicians have us in a knot. Work work work
Society is like a machine and now we’ve become like machines. Little machine houses for little machine
people.
FOOD NOT BOMBS
War in vietnam
War on black people
War on the environment
War on women
