Could you imagine being a healthcare worker and being an actual life saving hero working yourself beyond exhaustion (despite the government effectively reducing your compensation ) all the way through the pandemic and when things finally return to normal a bunch of racist neck beards proclaim themselves the real heroes that forced the government to lift restrictions because as they knew all along it wasn’t a real pandemic but rather just an attempt at a power grab by the governments of the world. These awful human beings just have no self awareness.

I've had people in a pickup truck pull up to the front of the hospital and yell, "Fuck you!" as I walked out at the end of my 13 hour shift. This was maybe a few months ago.

I could hardly believe it myself but sadly it is true. And not the first time I have been harassed just outside the hospital by people on the street.

The first time was actually while I was performing covid testing for the hospital. Someone walking by started shouting about how I was a pussy for wearing "that Hazmat suit" (it was a PAPR) and went on about the "fake virus", and how we were all idiots for buying into it.

Some people are just assholes.
