The ’60s just seemed to be a special time when everything was becoming more civilized and the more authoritarian aspects of life were giving way to something more democratic. But that optimism seemed to give way to cynicism by the turn of the decade. I noticed a colder social climate from about 1970, an increase in political violence, terrorism, etc, and it could be that cp followed the same pattern. In the sixties it looked morally unsustainable, headed for extinction. Then, somehow, it got a new lease of life. It seemed incredible to me that it could still be going on in the early ’80s when the victims would have been the children of the ’60s generation. Maybe some of those who were sitting cross-legged at the big Isle of Wight concert in ’69 were signing consent forms in 1982. It makes you sick to think about it, doesn’t it?
