Public employees, who do the work to make life livable in this country, should just STFU, stop joining unions and whining about pay and working conditions and accept the fact that they're public servants who should just be thankful to have any job.

Agreed! Women have a better Eye for Style! Among a Million Other Things Women do better than Men! #iamaman 😎
A man with long white hair and beard wearing a blue jumpsuit with the Superman "S" logo on his chest holds a truly grotesquely enormous gun with multiple muzzles and ammunition belts in his right arm. Superman: "It's time for Superman to finish World War II!"

Even MORE incredibly, this abomination was actually published by DC Comics
Striking Memphis sanitation workers hold signs reading "I AM A MAN" (1968).
1968: After two Memphis sanitation workers were crushed to death in a garbage truck, 1300 Black workers walked off the job, demanding wage increases & safer working conditions. After 64 days, the assassination of MLK, and numerous (mostly peaceful) marches, all demands were met. #IAmAMan 🧵
Baxter Leach, a black man, behind a sign at a rally. It is a close-up shot of his face. He is wearing a hat and dark wire-rim glasses. His head is turned so that his right ear is visible, but not his left. A small sideburn of white hair can be seen. He has a thin white moustache that turns down just past his bottom lip, and tiny bit sof white hair under his bottom lip and on his chin.

The 1968 Memphis Sanitation Strike, sparked by tragedy, saw workers demand fair wages, safety, and union rights. Dr. King’s support and assassination galvanized change.
