"You can't blame those who resisted trends..."

I don't. I honed in on the word "demonization" when reviewing the discourse. It is good to question, debate, and challenge notions. Someone doing the same thing on the other side of a dialogue does not make them a demon. When you represent them as a demon, you take the risk of treating them unjustly. The masses (especially among the youth) tend to rally around injustice more than entrenched platforms and rhetoric.

I remember famous events of the sixties that caused waves of youth to rally to the liberal side. Do you remember the redneck roofers in California who poored roofing tar on protesting hippies?
