Obviously, the interviewer is implying about loyalty to the state (“state” as in country, not a US State) or to an administration, and I know that they are implying that. But I am not loyal to an administration. But I know that’s what they actually meant.

How would the polygraph interpret it if I say “Yes”, because I’m answering based on my interpretation of loyalty to the constitution, but deep down, I full well know the implied question the interviewer is asking.

    If in the moment you’re replying to your own interpretation, you’re fine. But the second you overthink about their intentions, you will be freaking out, and that’s what the machine sees. One technique for bypassing lie detectors is to raise the baseline by flexing your butthole but there’s techniques to catch that, too.

            Remember that these things are basically ad-hoc devices that snake oil salesmen have convinced government agencies to buy into. The fact that your muscles near the buttocks move is enough for them to get the next level of the MLM, the interviewers, to be convinced that it can detect it.

                That just sounds like one step up from what most consider vanilla sex. “Oh baby, I love it, harder, harder!” is about as much of a lie as “I have never consumed one unit of marijuana, sir.”

                  I don’t quite think you understand me. I want to be an ally manipulated while hooked up to a polygraph test.
