Ironically, 1968 was also the year of the “Soixante-Huitards” or as I call them, the “Soixante-Retards” in France with the Student protests.
Those students actually came out in support of the Soviet Union and their overthrow of the “Reactionary” Dubcek.
Rock-n-roll pushed freedom but always for good.
“Red” Rudi Dutschke and Red Army Faction. Antifa type German communists of the time...same as the street scum vying with the nazis in the 20’s-30’s. Europe was full of this crap in the 60’s as was of course the US.
