This is one of the more upsetting redditor stories I've run into and it's not even that bad for the storyteller. The monstrosity of the system is its purpose, from being forced to call a hotline every day to find out if you're being randomly tested that day or violate parole, to being able to pay off your community service hours, to being told you have to spend time in prison but it can just be nights on the weekends all underscores that the cruelty is the point.
