Teslas in Sweden are probably going to have a lot of flat tires in the near future.

Just the ones in the warehouses. Unions don't get mad at the public. They get mad at shitty, oppressive, conservative employers.

The article does mention refusing Tesla based taxi service. Not sure how they are structured there but I do see individuals that own Tesla's possibly being affected as a result.

Oh, you mean a mass movement of anarcho-communist activism would slash the tires of private cars?

No.

It's even wilder. This is just normal people having a union.

I don't think they were suggesting slashed tires, just that lentil bean sales are about to go up.

But yeah, targeting people who bought cars before the labor issue was widely known wouldn't be productive.
