The workers will win.
Love that. Not propaganda. Not boasting or flexing. Not intimidating. Just a statement of fact.
It’s pretty hilarious that Elon doesn’t even understand that he doesn’t understand the game he’s playing.
I just cannot fathom how the owner of a huge company that is known for constantly abusing its employees can say that he dislikes situations that create “lords and peasants”. Like what is happening in his brain to make him think that is a sane thing to say?
In a weird way Elon is right. Unions do a lot to raise class consciousness and thus make people realize that there is indeed a lord ruling over most of their lives.
I think in Elon’s illusionary world view he would prefer if workers would see themselves as stake owners in a company where all strive for the same goals.
In reality though that can only happen with worker owned coops, which by definition can’t have an “Elon”.
So he doesn’t mind there being lords and peasants, he just doesn’t like people being aware of this fact. That makes more sense, though it’s no less villainous.
The huge advantage these guys have, is their union. It can pay their wages while they strike and take up the legal fights needed to win.
No one said Elon is smart
I will emulate this man’s energy and internalize it with the same determination and stoicism. Solidarity.

Elon can buy his way to an outcome of his liking when there are corrupt politicians, but he got something else coming to him if he think he can bully a country where they value the power of the working class.
That Elon stuttering though.
