The article that goes along with it says that it doesn't have benefits (b/c it's part-time) and it's not unionized.

Re: Seattle Socialist Group Pushing $15/Hour Minimum Wage Posts Job With $13/Hour Wag
Their entire political stance can be accurately summed up as a deep-seated hate of heterosexual white men.
Perhaps the only "feminist" group that strongly advocates freeing violent rapists simply because of their skin color.
The FSP has published a number of articles critical of the U.S. prison system,[23][24][25] and in support of prisoners such as Mumia Abu-Jamal.[26][27] Similarly, the FSP lent its support to Duncan Wells Purdy, who was first convicted in April 2007 of using his Cambridge, Massachusetts massage parlor to pimp women, and then convicted in December 2007 for raping a woman at his massage parlor.[28][29] In April 2013 FSP published a letter from Purdy, sent during his incarceration at MCI-Norfolk, and titled it “Behind bars: united in struggle.”[30] In it, Purdy describes himself as a victim who is “disempowered, frustrated...abandoned,” and “rising up in the struggle of the U.S. prison system.” Kathleen Hale, who survived one of Purdy’s rapes, recounts that he “yanked my arms behind my back until I thought my shoulders would dislocate,” raped her on his massage table, and then cleaned her off by repeatedly shoving a sponge into her vagina.[31] At Purdy’s sentencing, Judge Diane Kottmyer reprimanded him for demonstrating a lack of remorse. With Purdy eligible for parole in 2015, a Massachusetts State Attorney advised Hale to update her restraining orders against him because he changed his name to Duke Oneblood Trueblood, AKA Mr. Blood. He signed his FSP letter as “Duncan Purdy, AKA Duke Oneblood Trueblood.”

This is funny, but it also highlights why minimum wage is important. There is no free market in cheap labor, the overabundance of labor pool creates way to much supply and drives the equilibrium way to low. So looks like even groups that are advocating for a higher minimum wage will not pay it if they don't have to.
