I'm not sure how much of the British public would survive if they didn't have the general attitude of 'just ignore it', whatever problem, rule, or social norm 'it' represents at that particular moment. Seen it all my life, indeed I was very good at being boorish when younger and binge drinking was the thing. If the numbers turn out as some of us fear, we might ask how hard the lockdown message might have had to been driven home to people for us to not end up as statistical outliers in Europe. I'm acquiesent because whilst just don't know anywhere near enough to make categorical judgements yet. And I've given up trying to change people's attitudes. I have to grasp what happiness and peace I can to make it through right now, and that definitely lies in the opposite direction.If you ever work with the general public you will have known this for years, in one way it’s good in that I know if my daughter applies herself in years to come she will do really well for herself because the competition is dire, on the other hand I know she will end up working to pay for fucking idiots of this world. It’s a pity this virus doesn’t target the useless twats of this world, it would be a better place.
Still, it's hard to know what to say to the girl who I know, for example. She has just had an elderly father whisked of to hospital for surgery after his wife ran him over (accidentally), She won't go and visit her, because as far as she can tell, the rules forbid it. She also won't get involved in badmouthing others for their movements. Which is right. It's so easy to look for a target. But every time I do it, it leaves me furious, and needing another one after that to calm down. TBH I give it about an hour before I go completely off my head about something else.
