My house backs onto houses in the next street, and opposite those houses is a care home.
An old guy lives in the house directly to back of mine.
During the first lockdown, he would go out every Thursday and start singing. The care workers and residents in the care home would come out and join in. I could cut through a little alleyway into the next street. It was simply joyous to see. A little community all interacting, led by this man. People would come out their homes and join in. Some singing, some clapping, some banging pots and pans.
The residents loved it. The care workers loved it and appreciated it. It was a good thing that came out of the clapping.
It’s in things like that - a scenario that brought people together, reminded people that they are not alone. Reminded people that we are all going through this. That’s where the value lies for me in this gesture of clapping. And I think that’s why people did it. It showed that people care. And if anything, it may help remind people that we are not each other’s enemies in all of this.
I think it’s a nice gesture. It shows support. But that only really means anything if everyone ascribes to this attitude across the board. Until it is over.

My 6 year old wanted to know why the players kneeled down before a match. We talked about how it was a stance against racism. About how people can be treated differently because of the color of their skin, how they look, how they talk, whether they have a disability etc.
We’ve been planning on having these discussions, been laying the ground work with our chats about his “everyone’s different” and we should appreciate those differences.
Seeing the players do this before matches provided a nice opportunity to move the coversation along organically and give him some examples outside of his own social bubble.
It was great to see him observe the players kneeling and ask about it. I could see this being similar for kids wanting to know why everyone is clapping for heroes
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That's nice... but that would have been true if it had ended at the end of last season.
What's the point now?

I'm with Winston. It felt spontaneous the first couple of times, now it's a bit Clinton Cards. There'll be clap shaming next if you don't join in.
I've read a few posts on social media from actual NHS employees who say enough of the clapping, it's all very nice, but can we have something that'll actually improve our situation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Funny story.
My wife's cousin works as a consultant.
Her husband was looking after the baby and she was at work.
Their neighbour had a pop, asking them why they weren't out clapping, earlier in the year.
You can imagine the response, although I think he was more polite than I would have been.
It's utterly pathetic. As if not clapping on your doorstep means you don't care.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'd have punched him in the face and told him to mind his own business. (The neighbour)
On the subject while a nice gesture it's also futile and as alluded to earlier, following the rules to take pressure of these people's jobs is a far better thing to do
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I love that you clarified who you'd punch

if a few people clapping out on the street is upsetting you this much you really need tyo sort your fecking life out before doing anything else.
as for people clapping while you put your kids to bed.. again.. if a few people clapping is keeping your kids awake... stop being a tight cant and get some decent double glazing
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeh, double glazing prevents the sound of fireworks and car horns doesn't it?
Facking hell mate, engage your brain.
I haven’t been to a bar, cafe, restaurant, beach, barbecue since last February. I haven’t seen my father, my sister, my (now 2 year old nephew) in almost a year. The only place I’ve been during that time is my local supermarket. Am I a cant because I clapped during the last lockdown cinciwolf?

Not because of that
With the BLM kneeling, I would imagine quite a few players now think it's probably made it's point now and there has to be an end to it at some point, but no one will want to be the first to bring it up.

They'll then spend the rest of their week thinking about how they voted Conservative and thinking of ways of getting away with breaking the regs. Not once did I go out and clap last year. I'd much rather stick to the rules.

So you're saying that it is a marxist movement, but the link isn't saying it...(pedantry)
What it does say though is that the two that started the movement are trained Marxists...not that I care a jot frankly...i'm still saying the kneel is a pointless gesture.
