There is no machine or drug or anything else that can “detect” a lie or signs of deception. Polygraph results are purely interpretive, and anything that’s given to interpretation is given to the bias of the interpreter. Polygraph results are also wildly inconsistent. That’s why they are generally not admissible in court.

If you’re going to rely on pseudo-scoentific bullshit, you might as well bring in some palm readers and voodoo priests instead. At least that’ll be entertaining.

EDIT - Just want to add this - Never, under any circumstances, should you take a polygraph test. If you are a suspect (legally or otherwise), they will not use the results to exonerate you. If they suspect you did it, but the polygraph doesn’t detect any deception, they will throw out the results as “unreadable” and pursue other means of investigating you. But if the results detect deception, they will treat it like the fucking Oracle at Delphi.

I’m not even a centrist. I’m a full blown Leftist. It’s just a historical fact that religious assholes have spent the last thousands or so years going around the world trying to make everyone as miserable as them. I wasn’t even talking about the average religious person. There are plenty of Christians, Muslims, Jews, Hindus, and Buddhists who don’t go around trying to make everyone live the same as them. I was specifically talking about the whacko zealots, and I thought that was pretty clear in my comment. Apparently, talking about crazy religious people is a no-no on… [checks notes]… INSANE PEOPLE FACEBOOK.

LUIGI LUIGI LUIGI

So I had an account under a similar name to this one, but it got perma-banned a few months back. Not even Luigi related. Remember when that Nazi incel Nick Fuentes got doxxed? I made a comment that basically said “he should be happy now that women know where he lives so they can come share a cocktail with him”, with a gif of a Molotov cocktail. I thought it was pretty funny. Banned for glorifying/promoting violence. Against a Nazi.

More recently, my other account got perma-banned from r/insanepeoplefacebook for “hate speech” because of this comment:

So yeah. Fuck Reddit. Fuck Spez. Free Luigi.
