Is this supposed to be mocking workers? Am I supposed to be angry that Americans would potentially be placed into positions regularly filled by Chinese or other foreign workers?

No humans should toil for a pittance. The fact that we are okay with it when it's overseas is bad enough. The creator of this seems to be telling a cautionary tale but also mocking both the low wage factory jobs and that Americans might be "relegated" to this.

If this thing was created to make people angry, it worked.

I think it was a jab at how slow they are working. If you have ever watched industrial manufacturing they are working super fast compared to this video
