Musk said last week: “I disagree with the idea of unions. I just don’t like anything which creates a lords-and-peasants kind of thing.”
What a colossal twat.
He just hates when peasants win, he doesn't mind the lords and peasants otherwise.
Not only doesn't he like the peasants winning, he also doesn't like to be reminded that the peasants are indeed in power - because his lordship relies a lot more on them than vice versa.
As long as he gets to be the king who gets whatever he wants, he’s totally cool with the idea.
Says son of an emerald lord.
Hey, those werent peasants. He bought them legally and even gave them enough bread most of the time.
lords-and-peasants kind of thing
The thing he refers to is of course people he sees as peasants not accepting him as lord.
A twat with no understanding of how nordic countries have strong labour unions playing a vital role in their economic models. Cowboys with cash can and should go fuck themselves.
Not to mention, a hypocrite. What a thing for a multi billionaire to say.
Divide et impera
Ha! Ha!

Chad Swedes teaching tesla and clown owner about value of their labour.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Tesla has lost a legal action against Sweden’s postal service as a dispute with Nordic trade unions escalates.
A Swedish court said on Thursday that PostNord did not, for the time being, need to deliver licence plates to the electric carmaker that were being blocked by the postal service’s workers, in the latest twist in a battle over collective bargaining agreements.
A large Danish pension fund on Wednesday said it would sell its holdings in Tesla because of the carmaker’s refusal to enter into such deals, while Denmark’s largest trade union has joined strike action by the company’s workers in Sweden.
Nordic countries represent key markets for Tesla, which has a policy of not agreeing to collective bargaining and has said its staff have as good or better terms than those that IF Metall is demanding.
In a case related to the PostNord action, a court on 27 November ruled that the Swedish Transport Agency must find a way to get licence plates to Tesla.
Some Swedish pension funds have urged Tesla to sign the agreement with the union, but have so far held off from selling their shares.
The original article contains 372 words, the summary contains 189 words. Saved 49%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Tesla is expected to appeal the decision though. This was just the first court. We have 3, the last being the supreme Court.
Musk "picked" the wrong fighting grounds here. I'm pretty sure he will lose even at the supreme court eventually. And each day this drags on is a win for the unions
That's why strikes work. If you're not paid enough, not going to work barely loses you anything. If a workplace is shut down the company loses thousands per day. They still pay rent but earn no money.
Strikes usually end quickly if the company is focused on money. It's cheaper to pay workers a raise they originally deserved so they feel like they won, than stay closed.
This is not about pay.
Until the appeal is through it does hold though.
Nah, if Tesla had won here Postnord doesn't have to follow if they plan on bringing it to higher court. Granted they may not have wanted that but hypothetically.
When u talk shit about zionists
