Curious, if there's an Atomic War between the Soviets and West in the 60's (Mid to Late), what happens to the Hippies?

They were all about Peace, Love, and changing society, and were even starting to flee to the hills with the Hippie communes thus establishing their own societies in a way. Could they try to rebuild a society in their peacey, lovey way? Could the communes actually survive or do anything? I mean, I'm picturing a Tolkein-like* Medievalist Hippy agrarian feudalistic society. Although the more likely result is a bunch of kids who have no idea what they're doing.

*The Flower Children loved JRR Tolkein.
