> How grossly manipulative
Thanks for this. It's interesting to see that the main comment threads are:
- how interrogations leverage psychological manipulation to divulge information
- how to use verbal and visual tricks
- tabeth pointing out how people perceive social interactions as insincere

It's been said that the end doesn't justify the means.
