We are living in the 2nd coming of the 60s

I still find it very fascinating the number of people who associate being gay with butt sex. If you actually look at the numbers by the NIH, the spread(no pun intended) between the number of straight or gay couples who's preferred sexual act was anal sex is very small. I guess this gay lifestyle thing is running the same way  reefer madness did by its "opponents". They spread misinfo/smears(gays go to "hell" gays get aids, being gay is a choice/perversion) and hope that acceptance is stifled, and/or homosexual desires are repressed in that religion and not society's free will still be the dominating force in determining what is wrong and what is right.

"We have hipsters instead of hippies."

[FinShaggy]

We are living in a decade that is eerily similar to the 60s. Everyone is nostalgic for the 50s, 80s & 90s. In the 60s people were just nostalgic for the 50s, maybe 20s too.

Instead of "haight ashbury" we had "occupy" in New York, Oakland and just about every state in America, as well as other countries. So it's an international phenomenon instead of just one street corner. The 60s started at the corner of haight and ashbury in cali.

Instead of acid, marijuana and cocaine slowly becoming nationally illegal drugs, we are slowly working towards finding the correct applications for such things.

Instead of a "mad men" stock rush, there is a bitcoin stock rush.

We have hipsters instead of hippies.

Our guns are being restricted (same as the 60s) we will probably be getting our right to bear arms back though, instead of losing it like we did in the 60s.

Shy of Googling to see if it's already been coined, Bitsters and Bitsties come to mind.
