In Sweden in 1979, a number of people called in sick for "being gay", to protest that homosexuality was still classified as a disease. After that, an activist occupation of the National Board of Health and Welfare's headquarters began. Within a few months, Sweden became one of the first countries in the world to declassify homosexuality as a disease.
Elmo need to start paying attention.

A bit apples to oranges. That's an actual strike. They don't go in to work and they don't get paid. They didn't selectively continue working but only for X that they decided are they good guys

A strike is only one part of industrial actions which unions can take, other include overtime bans and, in this case, a blockade. The purpose is to force Tesla to the negotiating table and get a collective bargaining agreement, which covers most of the Swedish labour market.

I don’t understand why anyone should care about whatever an “actual strike” is. Maybe some labor organization strikes against working with some hazardous product like asbestos. So they refuse to work with it. But they continue to work with other materials. Because they’re not striking against all the other products that they work with...
