As well as the fact that Persuasion and Deception are not mind control.

No fucking shit. I agree with that, my argument is that knowing the truth and believing it are two different things. It doesn't affect their beliefs or motivations; it's a god damn lie detector test.

At this point I can only come to two conclusions: You either don't have a strong grasp of English or you are willfully not reading what I am saying.

What

The

Says

Or

How

It's

Calibrated

It's a particularly interesting example you've chosen given that lie detectors are fucking pseudoscience and a specific character might not believe one single fucking thing they say
