This is also why sjws are not at all like hippies.
They loathe the moral freedom/liberation aspect of that time.
What I find very interesting is that many in that thread (and it seems a pattern beyond that thread) realize that Bushnell is being wronged, but the conditioning of their environment leads them to expressing sympathy not for Nolan but through the women who are defending Nolan and not being heard.
Nolan is wronged, but he's a fucking white male, so the sympathy must go to the nearest minority. It's a weird playout of progressivism when progressive attacks are in the wrong. They sense that what is going on is wrong, but also sense that recognizing it is wrong is immoral to their tribe.
