To increasingly find hippies more annoying

I grew up with hippy parents and have always ended up befriending slightly hippy alternative people. Now I'm older, I'm finding hippies to be:
-good at bad science
-judgemental of people who dare to want to be materially comfortable
-pious
-immoral when it comes to relationships / using spiritual bs to justify treating people badly
-smug
-dull
-closed
-middle class but scruffy

Does anyone else know what I mean?

Reading this back am horrified that I sound so conservative!

IMO everybody is judgemental about other people in one way or another. I freey admit that I judge people, and I don't believe those that say they never do. Just by accusing someone of being judgemental is being judgemental isn't it?

I agree with the OP. I have an acqaintance who likes to think she is "alternative", and she judges anyone who isn't

That really made me smile yup sounds about right.
But my hippy friends are also a lot of fun and do throw a good party. We've learnt to take things they say with a pinch of salt. I guess that's why we're not hippies!

I don’t think you sound conservative. Just a bit of a judgemental twat. If you don’t like hippy type people stop bloody befriending them.
