(To be a) Scruffy.
An often anarcho-socialist person with dreadlocks, usually somewhat anti-capitalist.
They fight for nature, the climate and for freedom. Can be found in towns dominated by Anthroposophical farmers/schools/healthcare/
people etc.
Not to be confused with hippies/treehuggers. Hippies are all about peace and
love and free weed; Scruffys are all about individual freedom and mutual aid, protests tend to become more violent too as they do everything in their
power to refuse and reject authorities.
Person A: look at that
guy with the dreadlocks. Why’s he in a
tree?
Person
B: he’s probably a Scruffy trying to stop the workers from chopping it down, as a political statement.
