In your enumeration of hippy (diminutive of Hipster, q.v. "The White Negro" by Norman Mailer et al) attributes that endure, you neglected rampant drug use. I know, I was there. "Dope will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no dope" may no longer have the same purchase when being unhoused is a possible consequence, but "Dope will get you through" is all over the place now.
I recall the split in the 1960's between the political youth and those like me, although I straddled the line a bit, going to marches, in NYC and its surrounds and then from my new home in the Bay Area. Having fun while doing good. Not that any of this is relevant to your comments here, but Lest We Forget etc.
I'm not sure that the yut' have driven the white working class anywhere. The "culture wars" are about racism, masculinism, and ressentiment. The first two have little to do with the Kids These Days. The first is an American soil condition and the second a consequence of mainstream feminism, which has emasculated the economic sphere, leaving little else but guns for white working class men. Ressentiment? Maybe a bit. But ressentiment is the inversion of values of a perceived dominant class (read "Hillary" or "Massachusetts" or--for the craziest--"Jews.") I'm not sure that the white working class perceives the Kids as dominant, although they may not like the way that the dominant classes tolerate the kids.

An attribute that has not endured in as widespread a fashion is intentional community. There are still some but they can be harder to find. The Farm still exists, I am pleased to learn – Wikipedia has an article about it at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Farm_(Tennessee) as well as a set of articles concerning former and current such places at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Intentional_communities_in_the_United_States .
