The counter culture was just be a slacker and skateboarding is not a crime. The general vibe was if you finish college, things should work out for you. And oh hey, the internet was quirky and seemed like thr openess of it all would be only great for everyone with no downside. This is obviously coming from my white and comfortable background though. There were problems then too, big ones. But the culture seemed to have more of a feeling of yeah things will be fine and workout just bcause. --- You know how fads are.
