Hard disagree. "it's funny to push someone's buttons until they have a mental breakdown" and "you deserve more because you let us see you bleed" is insanely toxic schoolyard bully mentality. The extreme pettiness of the righteous cause being used as an excuse just demonstrates the fact that it's just a veneer for the cruelty.
“it’s funny to push someone’s buttons until they have a mental breakdown”
In 99% of cases I agree that isn't funny, but if a dorky youtuber putting magnets that don't stick on your car for making minimum wage workers clean up after you sends you to several death threats and punches, then you're not the victim here
Speaking as one of those workers who did that job, leaving your cart propped up in one of those planter islands is the second best thing to do behind actually returning it. It's really not a big deal.
I'm not sure if I agree with the framing that it's a minimum wage worker doing it. I think of it as Costco doing it. The only time it really makes a difference to the worker is at the end of the day when it's time to get them all in to lock up.

it's actually the correct course of action if you're doing it to the right kind of person
Bullies always seem to find worthy victims
Honestly it's miraculous how they ALWAYS deserve it. What a just world.
