"Dismantle or not?"

As Dr. Lightman said in the play, "According to statistics, people lie on average three times every ten minutes", it can be seen that we all lie (for whatever purpose), and the ability to recognize lies seems to have become a social compulsory course , to help us better understand the true intentions of others. The Dr.Lightman in the play is a "Master of Liar Detection" - insight into people's true intentions by observing micro-expressions. But compared to this, I envy him even more for his grasp of whether to expose lies. When facing the congressman who chose to take the blame and give up his career in order to protect the daughter he abandoned when he was young, he chose to respect the lie; after the lie of the lover's lover of the female assistant was discovered by him, he also chose to remain silent rather than expose it. Help maintain the relationship between the two. At the end of the gathering, three consecutive shots of passers-by's micro expressions once again let people see the choice for demolition.

He chose to expose this lie

It can be seen that "demolition or not", Dr.Lightman gave us a good sample. It is true that we all lie and face one lie after another. It is important to recognize a lie, but whether or not to debunk it has become an art worthy of our contemplation.
