What would the world look like if the hippies won?
Moving from nostalgia to social justice, from Reagan-era greed to democracy’s questionable taste in role models, this episode traces a quieter counterfactual: what might have happened if gentleness, softness, and care had been allowed to win—even once. Part meditation, part cultural memory, this chapter asks whether letting go isn’t retreat, but a different kind of resistance.
