Courtesy of freakytigger and indeed FreakyTrigger, apparently we have all resolved our generational difficulties and become one big happy Radio Two family since 1966. Blimes.

Arbitrary Woodstock reference WTF

Of course you can't have an innaccurate and limited poll carried out without poptimists getting involved, with our great experience in POLL SCIENCE and superior democratic methods. Err. Anyway, I'm clearly not the best mod for this task but away we go.


[Poll #1443342]

It would be more thorough but I appear to be experiencing mild 'stealing wireless fail' so thought I'd just shove it out here quick.

Whereas from my second-hand understanding, generational disparities were more outward and complete in the 60's -- your social AND political bearings were a 180, which was a vocal way of doing it but, I would bet, not the norm in the way that some polling suggests it is with political issues now, in a much quieter but perhaps more pervasive way. But then I only think this because the info I have is about NOW, not about THEN. What survives mostly from THEN (from someone who was born during Reagan and lived thru Bush) is a kind of co-opting of superficial cultural moments with a severe downturn in the quality of politics and legislation in areas that made progress in the 60s.
