“Though the Witch knew the Deep Magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back… she would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor’s stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backward.” - Aslan, C.S. Lewis, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

Why Humans Who Lie Cannot Engage in True Dialogue

👑 SWANK Epistemic Breakdown

When Language Becomes a Labyrinth Instead of a Bridge

📆 30 May 2025


✒️ Why Humans Who Lie Are Not Capable of Discussion

💭 Dialogue Requires Shared Reality
Conversation is not words—it’s coherence.
Lying annihilates shared ground.
Without epistemic overlap, there is no dialogue—only duet delusion.

📡 Lies Jam the Signal
A liar is not speaking with you—they are staging you.
They curate responses. They improvise personas.
It’s not communication. It’s character work.

🕳️ Manipulation Requires Obscurity
Truth simplifies. Lies complicate.
Where clarity would resolve, distortion buys time.
The liar must avoid light—because light dissolves leverage.

🎭 False Selves Are Poor Interlocutors
To lie is to fracture.
And a fractured self cannot maintain alignment under scrutiny.
It dodges. It scripts. It flees.

🧠 The Bandwidth of Deceit Is Unsustainable
Lying requires:
• Narrative tracking
• Reality suppression
• Impression management
• Performance stability
This costs more than most can cognitively afford.
The result? Dialogue disintegration.

⚖️ Incoherence Is a Relationship Death Knell
Where truth synchronises system and signal—
Lies corrode.
They unthread the self.
They unweave the connection.
They collapse the conversation before it begins.


🪞If you feel like you’re “not getting through”—you’re not.
Not because you’re unclear,
but because they’re not available
to anything that might cost them their mask.
