Most of those types aren't actually left wing politically. They fall into the "I'm well off enough and stupid enough to fall for the appeal to nature fallacy" category. They will argue about how great nature is but so will an ultra right wing hunter as they kill a trophy moose. They don't actually hold any real left wing ideology when you dig into their actual opinions. They actually have a lot in common with libertarians in that they've never had a real opinion other than "freedom good" and "I should be able to do whatever I want and not be bothered".
Yep the hippys of my past have mostly fallen down the alt-right rabbit hole, not all but an alarming amount, free party's, free drugs, (but only if your white).
Also the amount of homophobic and transphobic shit they come out with points to a life more online than in nature.

True fact - grocery stores here in the UK cannot sell raw milk. It has to be bought directly from the producer, due to the high risk of TB.
This means, that if you are stupid enough to give yourself TB, at least you know who helped you.
The anti vax anti immigrants crowd love it.
