In Reply to: Depends on how you define "anti-establishment." posted by TAFKA Steve on July 11, 2000 at 15:04:13:
Yes, I see what you are getting at. Star Wars was a stretch. Guess I was thinking about the rebels and the evil empire thing.I did find enlightenment in a post below though. The Anti Establishment lifestyle portrayed sympathetically is what I'm after.
If I recall correctly, during the 1950s, the establishment was called
the "military-industrial complex", referring to Eisenhower as U.S.
President( Head
Military Honcho) and his relationship with big corporations.
Yes, indeed and that's where I was coming from. I think, though, that Steve is right in indicating that this was not the total establishment. And probably during the time of Eisenhower, The MIC was pretty much accepted by most people as being ok and necessary.
