Once this COVID shit goes away, I see drug addiction, alcoholism and suicide rates jump up in the health care field when they lose their BS "Hero" status, everyone quits caring about their Tik Tok dance videos and just go back to being fucking nurses.

You think Jose who is grinding fiberglass all day in south florida with its 100 and no AC with his N95 on and full tyvek suit is being a drama queen like that.

Not to mention he gets paid 1/4 of what they do.

Unless you live under a rock, nurses do make good money.  Specialty nurses make great money.  Some Cov19 workers are getting premium pay and bonus pay.  

Add into that, the click money from tic toc videos and they will all soon compete with the doctors for Porsche parking.

Have we coined a term for these types of people that think very highly of themselves?  They work the hardest at their jobs patting themselves on the back.

Just wondering what word to use to fill in the blank.

-My neighbor is a nurse and has one of those “___” signs in her yard.  
-My sister just graduated from nursing school and went full-blown “___”.

Agreed.

But the criticism is not of the work they are doing.

The criticism is that they are being used as propaganda.

The criticism (specifically) for these Insta, Twitter and TikTok nurses vids and pics is that they are ignorantly and unknowingly yet actively participating in the performative acts of propaganda and psyops against the larger population.

The implied meaning of the dancing TikTok vids is:

This “pandemic” is so bad, look at these suffering RNs!  We must allow shutdowns and lockdowns and destruction of our country and complete usurpation of our rights to fight this.  If you question this or disagree, you obviously must hate America, hate grandma, and hate all these heroes sacrificing for your health and safety.

If you question .gov/cdc and corporate media you hate America.

I was driving down the road the other day and noticed a vet clinic had a "Veterinarian Heros Work Here" sign in the front yard.  Trying to cash in to the public support for real doctors and nurses that face covid every day...because they work on animals is sad and wrong. The cashiers at the grocery store face a bigger threat than they do.

Many, not all, but many of the critics can't endure wearing a mask for even 5 minutes because "my face feels hot" and "it makes my glasses foggy." Of course they substitute alternative justifications for their inability to withstand even momentary discomfort.

This thread reminded me of a quote from Anthony Scarramucci about Steve Bannon, about him trying to suck his own cock.

I can tell you from experience, the amount of autofellatio occurring in healthcare right now is at an all time high, much of it by people who aren't even on the front lines, but want to be associated with it. Everyone in the building is a "Healthcare Hero" and don't you forget it!

A nurse wearing PPE is part of their job.

I shouldn't have to wear nurse PPE to walk my fucking dog. It's totally arbitrary.

Arbitrarily force nurses to wear offshore tank cleanout PPE to buy groceries. It's probably more effective than a simple mask. It's for safety. If it saves just one life. Trust the science. See if they complain.
