This might be an argument if we had a guaranteed income, ubi, or some other social safety net, but since everyone has to work to survive, it isn't true.

Exactly. The argument that it's an agreement between employer and employee ignores the difference in power. Every agreement has what is called a BATNA (best alternative to a negotiated agreement). The employer has hiring someone else, and the low skill employee has starving. Therefore a low skill employee will take the minimum wage job because they need to survive. And this is looking at it in America. A lot of people are working under worse conditions for longer hours for a dollar a day at most just to survive.
