SOUND CREDIT: The Chamber Stage (YouTube)Support the boys (Thomas Vanek & Richard Sinex) and I on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@hemlock-ytBecause someone will ask: the Nixon tape is from Feb 1st 1972 and features the Reverend Billy Graham giving his fascinating interpretation of the Jewish Question in the Oval Office. Nixon concludes (its' a little garbled on the tape) by saying "I believe it. I can't say it but I believe it."https://www.nixonlibrary.gov/white-house-tapes/662/conversation-662-004The books in question are "The Contrarian" by Max Chafkin (the better book, for the record) and "The Philosopher in the Valley" by Michael Steinberger.If you are interested in browsing the internet without Palantir et. al. surveilling you, I would highly recommend you look into the Tor Project, and specifically the Tor Browser:https://www.torproject.org/download/
