In 1940, when Britain was down and almost out, being bombed daily by the Germans, and had just been subjected to one of the most humbling defeats in Battle, Winston Churchill, gave the V for Victory symbol.

The symbol didn't drive the Germans away and didn't stop the bombing
But the Symbol gave Hope. Hope that someday, they will be victorious. These symbols helped the British endure, and after 5 years, win the war.

Sometimes, in times of despair you need Symbols of hope and rejuvenation.
To all those people, who are criticizing the 5 PM clap, remember, it was a symbol of hope.

And in times like these, people need them.

You may think it is trivial, but for many it signals that their govt is looking out for them. And if people lose hope, they lose everything.
