    Member all those shows where polygraphs, or really any kind of tech that’s advanced enough to be hard to figure out, are just called lie-detectors and treated as if they really do detect lies? Shows where the main character will poke themselves with a pin to ‘trick’ the polygraph, or some other kind of bullshit.

    This is what your average lead brained alcoholic boomer accepts as true, because dey seen it on da teevee. A failed polygraph test is absolutely the kind of bullshit that his supporters would eat up as evidence.
