    I didn’t vote but it does seem a bit dramatic to talk about “saving us”. Tbh same for labeling eveyone as “heroes”. I feel like the heart is in the right place a lot to of the time to value otherwise devalued jobs but it goes hard in the other direction

      Heroes may be dramatic, yes, but consider the context. Hero is a role in which there is more expectation of death. Another way to see it is corporate’s way of easing the perception around deaths of people working with people during COVID.
