Guys, this is what success for the working class looks like.
If the ruling class is upset, it's because we're doing something right.
If they're content, it's because they're fucking us up the ass with no lube or reach-around.
They literally want us to roll over and just take it. And some of us are proud to. Glad that number is rapidly diminishing, though.
The rabble refuses to do my perfect bidding?! This is insanity!!
Elmo's clearly the one whose insane.
USA strikers should take notes
Waiting for Noway and Denmark to join in and make it even more insane
I know there are Tesla Factories in Norway, but I don't think there are any in Denmark. I'm Danish, but I could be wrong.
It's more about the sympathy striking. If danish post clerks did not deliver letters to Tesla's offices or like in Sweden, they won't make number plates or unload them from the ships
Given the recent Dutch election I suspect trade unions may not be participating...
What does the Dutch election have to do with unions in Sweden, Noway and Denmark?
Let's appreciate the insanity of opening factories in countries with some of the best unions and laws supporting unions and then doing a pikachu face when those unions go and decide to bust your kneecaps for essentially abusing the workers... Elon why did you even open a factory in sweden? It was obvious from the beginning this would happen.
Probably some insidious long term plan to weaken unions in Scandinavian countries.
I’ll take “Things petulant billionaires say when they don’t get their way” for $1000, Alex.
He's so persecuted. Guys, guys, be nice to Elon. He's just the victim here. There's no way these strikes are a direct response to his policies and business practices.
Poor thing.
Cry harder billionaire.
Literally made his money on exploitation and lies. SpaceX is amazing, but built on much smarter minds; he was just the wallet. And he bought Tesla and has been lying and overpromising since he did.

Not to mention 100's of millions of subsidies from the US government. Space X could never have survived with only his wealth!
But didn't he also go above and beyond to have him portrayed as founder of SpaceX?
To me, proof that Elon Musk is a doofus and not as smart as he thinks he is, is that he had this public persona of "real life Iron Man" billionaire playboy thing going, and within just a couple years his public image has become "douche bag with too much money". Obviously that one is way closer to reality, which is exactly my point.
Someone with half a brain would have hired a PR team to keep the original image intact for as long as possible, but he's so egotistical and so prideful and so oblivious he thinks he can let his real self on display and that'll just carry him
I think most people are at a point where they only really want to know what he's up to to make fun of him.
Evidently he has Asperger's, so there might be a non-nefarious explanation for his lack of understanding of social things and why he is both simultaneously so successful/creative but also completely socially inept.
He might be actually incapable of understanding others' perspectives.
You do not need to understand others on an emotional level for this, you can come pretty far on rationals alone. This excuse might work in a personal relationship, not here.
