Million Nurse March, NotMyCircus:"Also, the leader of the march said in a livestream that she is “in no way affiliated with BLM” so now black nurses are going on Tiktok and saying they will not be participating in this thing. (Florence Nightingale was reportedly racist as well and the event is scheduled for her birthday—that’s another reason given for not going.)
I’m waiting for this march to be co-opted by groups and causes not even related to the original idea behind it (protesting legislation putting a cap on travel nurses’ pay). White supremacists, anti-cancers, whatever. Ever since Saturn entered Aquarius, there have a lot of protests—has anyone else noticed this? They all start out in a certain direction, then they get tainted and take on a bad reputation. Hopefully this one won’t go that way."

Nurse Freedom Network, Feb 7, 2022:"As nurses, if we are not taking a strong stand for basic human rights, autonomy, and INFORMED consent for our patients, yet get fired up to march ONLY when it directly threatens our own finances - this is cringe-worthy at best, in my opinion. I absolutely reject the idea of salary caps in a free market, but instead of begging for the overlords of this broken and oppressive “sickcare” system to make changes we all know full well won’t happen, why not try to be a part of building an alternative system that actually focuses on true, patient-centered care? A system that respects and values it’s nurses for the professionals we are and always have been."
