In the past, Tesla’s owner, Elon Musk, has publicly threatened workers with retaliation if they were to form a union. “Elon Musk’s business model is to avoid respecting human rights. Now he is taken on by one of our strongest unions. We must defeat the Tesla business model, and Sweden is the best place to start.”

    Given the ease with which Spotify (a Swedish company, albeit with an American management style) shoved aside the unions in Sweden recently, I suspect Tesla will have no trouble doing the same. I hope to be proven wrong here.
