They are working now, to clean up their mess...for no pay...that sounds like slavery. They are really committed to becoming slaves aren't they?

I'd call it more "volunteerism" myself and a willingness to try to realize part of the results of their protests may be "burdensome" towards their hosts. The motives for these protests are many things, I rank the term "Envy" high on that list, but there's also an element of anti-corporatism, the first is a problem, the second isn't such a bad thing.
