In America, the leadership was dominated by idiot revolutionists but the demonstrators, such as myself, were draft age canon-fodder who just wanted no part of the Vietnam War.
It seems that it was different in France, where French youth had no such worries but filled the streets for genuinely leftist reasons.
Very odd that so many should have been so stupid.
