Sorry to Bother You: Metaphors

Hi, i know this movie isnt exactly new, but i just saw it for the first time and it blew my mind. Id love to discuss it, but not exactly in the same ways as all the other discussions ive seen. I understand how it's a portrayal of modern capitalism, but i want to specifically discuss metaphors within the movie and what others believe they represent.

Two certain ones:

The white bandana cassius wears in a good portion of the movie: I believe this directly ties in to the MLK analogy, showing how he was figuratively shot in the head, the same way many historical activists have been.

The WorryFree logo: I thought it looked a lot like the Waste Management logo, but have no idea why that would be, if true.

Note: this is my first post and im also not super in to movies typically, so im sorry if this post violates any rules/norms, and im sorry if this is all very obvious, or poorly worded/explained.
