Or they say that polygraph tests are unreliable anyway.
@ham addition polygraph tests have been proven and is under scientific consensus that they are nothing more than shams, you cannot measure truth and lie. It's been proven if you act calm you can pass a polygraph even if you are lying
The inventor of the polygraph himself said do not use my invention as a lie detector
You can also make truth seem like lie of you work yourself up for the question with stressful thoughts.

I HAVE BETTER THINGS TO DO

conservatism has really changed over the last few years
REO @campodin

it generally means you believe in keeping "older" principles and traditions rather than constant progress

conservatism serves and pretty important part of society, at least in democracies, most nations will have a split of 2 main parties, Liberals made of guess whom, liberals, and Conservatives made of... You guessed it, Conservatives.
overall it is one of the most mainstream ideologies behind Liberalism and Progressivism
All you need is to give people future shock

Conservatism, in the traditional sense, means maintaining the culture and traditions of a society. It serves an important function in society. Conservatism has failed so far, sadly. Modern society has strayed far from what society was only a century ago.
Conservative (at one point) seemed to refer to spending but over the past 16 years that doesn't seem to be the case anymore
Conservatism literally just means preserving traditionalism
Maybe now it does
mob
It always has
Which is fine
