“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

Respect Is Not a Service the State Can Demand but Refuse to Offer

⟡ SWANK Politeness Termination Notice ⟡

20 February 2024

I Don’t Want You in My Home. You Weren’t Invited Into My Life.


I. Politeness Is Optional After Disrespect Is Institutional

Sent at 15:32 GMT on 20 February 2024, Polly Chromatic delivers a precise, unimpressed rebuke to Samira Issa, Eric Wedge-Bull, and Glen Peache, with Nannette Nicholson Bcc’d for institutional accountability.

“I don’t appreciate being forced to have humans in my home whom I do not trust and whom have treated me disrespectfully.”
“Additionally, I don’t appreciate being bothered while I am sick.”

This is not an outburst. It is a dignity embargo, written in SWANK’s native dialect: elevated contempt.


II. Tone Policing Reversed, With Thanks

“I realise that you don’t care and that you don’t understand how to treat humans with kindness and respect.”
“Thank you for your understanding.”

A perfect closer: ritual politeness as legal sarcasm.
The courtly finish to an unwanted intrusion.


III. Sent from iPhone, Delivered from Sovereignty

Not a breakdown.
Not a plea.
A final curation of access — declining not just contact, but entitlement to her space, body, and breath.

You may have entered her home — but you were never welcome in her humanity.
