  1. The only insane thing in this whole ordeal is Musk himself

  2. Insane? Yes you are insane you fucking egoistic muppet.

  3. “Fucking insane peasants want a fair deal”

  4. My dude here really out saying “insane” while being the worlds unfunniest and most fragile 4chan edgelord with a breeding fetish, single-handedly tanking a multi-billion dollar business while pushing literal Nazis.

  5. It’s so funny when Elon is fuming. Like a little spoiled brat throwing temper tantrum 😂😂😂

  6. The insanity is to refuse collective agreements in Nordic nations.
    As long as there is a valid agreement signed by employer and worker/union representatives and the agreement is not broken. Strikes are illegal.

  7. • Swedish postal workers on Monday stopped making deliveries to Tesla offices and repair shops on Monday, in support of a strike launched by the union IF Metall over the electric carmaker’s refusal to sign a collective wage agreement.

    • “This is insane,” wrote Tesla owner Elon Musk on X, in response to a social media post about implications arising from the sympathy strikes.

    • Financial newspaper Dagens Industri reported that postal workers action could block new Tesla’s from hitting the road as license plates for new cars issued by the Swedish Transport Agency are only delivered via mail carrier Postnord.

    • The Tesla strike has attracted secondary action from eight other unions and is threatening to spread to neighbouring Norway, where Fellesförbundet (the United Federation of Trade Unions), the country’s largest private sector union, said it was prepared to take sympathy action.

    • German union IG Metall has assured the striking Tesla workers in Sweden of its full solidarity. “Your fight for better working conditions is the fight of your colleagues at Tesla in Grünheide,” said IG Metall district manager Dirk Schulze.

  8. He should have a look at Lidl fighting unions in Norway: and getting kicked out of the country in the process. Lidl came to Norway, fought the unions, lost and had to close down and leave.

  9. Has he declared unions woke, evil and controlled by “globalists” yet? 😀

  10. I love how he is simply incapable of understanding how other countries work.

  11. Loool everybody hates Elon Musk.

    Well everybody except the far right.

  12. It’s funny that he wants to sell his cars in country that’s rich thanks to strong unions and social system, but doesn’t want to deal with those unions or participate in the system.

  13. This is the most chad thing Sweden has done in a long time and I am so happy to see it! Go Sweden go! Kick his sorry ass out. Electric Volvos are better anyway.

  14. I’m sure no-one actually expected Elon would understand.

  15. He should have read up on the subject. If you go into a fight with LO and make it very public and just refuse to sign, this is what happens.
    No surprise really.

  16. Our rich daddy’s boy clearly doesn’t like it when he doesn’t get what he wants. Must be first for him.

  17. We don’t need Tesla in Sweden, but they can stay if they follow our rules.

  18. I mean what do you expect from someone with his upbringing. Hes not used to being told no.

  19. Fuck elon. I rather buy European made cars that some tesla shit

  20. “Insane” is a strange choice of word, coming from Musk.

  21. Nothing I love more than Elon being put in his place. Best of luck to the Swedes on getting a good deal.

  22. Insane? You know what’s insane is the idea that Elmo thought he was going to get away with his absolutely idiot plan.

  23. Look who fails at capitalism as soon as the difficulty is set to ‘medium’…

  24. Never let those fuckers tell you that you don’t need unions

  25. Unions are the only thing protecting ordinary people from parasites like Elon.

  26. That’s strange, I’ve been thinking **he** is insane for a while now.

  27. “those damn Europeans expecting to have rights as workers… Wtf, why did I even thing of hiring them?”
