Authenticity comes in many forms. Part of fascism is blindly subscribing to uniformity, including choice of fashion (ahem...uniforms), music, and social opinions. Many hippies do just this. Part of this, in my opinion, is youth, and it's not something to hold too strongly against a young person who is trying to figure out who he really is deep down under the the skin color, the gender, the society, the conditioning, etc... People grow, but they need their community (now wider and ever more connected than ever) to nurture them and trim off the dead leaves and unfruitful branches taking up valuable energy.
