The publication reflects on the consensus theory of truth and the absurdity of the modern political landscape by presenting anonymous statements found online as aphorisms, juxtaposed with contextually charged images.

The content of this publication was gathered from online political forums, social media platforms and news outlets.

Using a layered construction, the publication points out that the narratives dominating social environments become amplified and distorted within digital spaces, driven by personal ideologies, continuous news cycles and algorithmically manufactured rabbit holes.
