They sound like a nut with a grievance.
The story is inconsistent. Begging and "writing" is morally superior to being "working poor?" And then they cannot find any other job with their degrees because of their grievance with Amazon? And then they like being homeless because they used to work at a camping store?
They cannot accept charity from family but they beg in front of a Whole Foods?
If this is the poster child for the anti-Amazon movement, Amazon has nothing to worry about.

It was a kind of Maoist re-education program– a little too much like slavery for my comfort." The author's sense of self-entitlement is nauseating. Seriously, slavery? You'd think a humanities student would have at least some basic perspective of the world.
