#DemocracyNow: “What About the Capitalists?”: Autoworkers in U.S., Mexico Call for Solidarity, Not Divisive Tariffs

Story April 08, 2025

"As workers brace for uncertainty and fallout from #Trump’s #tariffs, we hear from two #autoworkers, one in #Mexico and one in the United States. Israel Cervantes, founder of the National Independent Union for Workers in the Automotive Industry in Mexico, calls for unions across #NorthAmerica to unite against the tariffs, which have already led to layoffs from auto manufacturers. In the U.S., autoworker and UAW member Sean Crawford joins Democracy Now! on his work break to respond to the rhetoric and impact of the tariffs. 'They are always harping on foreigners, foreigners, foreigners. But what about the #capitalists? says Crawford, who urges international solidarity against #corporations’ attempts to sow division among #exploited #workers. “This nationalistic viewpoint has not been working for us and has resulted in a lot of these layoffs,' he says. 'I want to see us grow together as a #WorkingClass.'"

Continued thread

#DavidGeier, has published numerous articles in #medical literature attempting to tie mercury in #vaccines to #autism. In 2012, state authorities in Maryland found that he had been practicing #medicine WITHOUT a license alongside his father, Mark Geier, who was a doctor at the time.

MD authorities also suspended Mark Geier’s #MedicalLicense following claims that he #endangered #children w/ autism & #exploited their parents, acc/to state records.

@rowlandm unfortunately, no, I don't feel like these contributions have added any value to my portfolio/resume. For example, let's talk about #gitlab. The reason why I stopped was because I felt #exploited. For almost 6 months, all I did was #contribute - I also took part in 2 of their #hackathon. Any interaction with their employees felt robotic, corporate-like. I wanted something out of the community - #jobopportunities, #mentorship, or #upskilling, but nothing came out of it.

The Broader Push to Rewrite #History.

Israel's assault on #Palestinian #heritage goes beyond fabricated #archaeological narratives—it’s a #systematic effort to erase history and consolidate control. Here are more key aspects of the campaign:

#Looting of #WestBank #Antiquities :

For decades, #Israel has #exploited the occupied territories' rich archaeological sites, #smuggling thousands of #artifacts to build its #colonial narrative. The new bill seeks to #institutionalize this #theft, granting #extremist officials unchecked authority over excavation and #HeritagePreservation in Palestinian areas.

The Role of the Israeli Antiquities Authority:

Under the guise of #AcademicResearch, the #IsraeliAntiquitiesAuthority frequently removes artifacts from the West Bank, exhibiting them in Israeli #museums without acknowledging their Palestinian origins. This process not only strips Palestinians of their #cultural history but also bolsters Israel’s claim to the land.

Settler-Led Excavations:

Settler organizations like #Elad are at the forefront of #illegal excavations, particularly in East #Jerusalem. These digs disrupt Palestinian neighborhoods, displace families, and create #tourist sites glorifying biblical narratives while erasing the #multicultural history of the region.

Linking Settlements to #BiblicalClaims:

Israeli settlement expansion is increasingly tied to archaeological claims. By declaring areas with supposed biblical significance, such as #Hebron or #Shiloh as part of #Jewish heritage, the #llegalOccupation justifies #annexation and denies Palestinians access to their land.

The International Fallout:

Despite warnings from Israeli #archaeologists and global institutions, the government continues its #unilateral moves. If the bill passes, Israel risks severe isolation, as #CulturalTheft violates international conventions, including #UNESCO protection of #CulturalHeritage during conflicts.

These moves are not just an assault on history—they are an extension of the colonial project, reshaping the narrative to legitimize an occupation that erases Palestinian identity. The stakes go beyond antiquities; they encompass the right of a people to their past, present, and future.
