Mimikama on February 23rd “live on stage” in the backdrop in Vienna. When Porn Meets Conspiracy Theories: A humorous and fast-paced (and sometimes scary) journey through the last decade on the Internet. Between fact, fake and conspiracy.

Internet & Social Media – that sounds great! Everyone will find what they are looking for here: whether you are looking for cute cat videos, bare facts or political discussions. But be careful: not everything that is shiny or bulging is true!

We had to learn this the hard way BEFORE the term “fake news” emerged. The topic has been on everyone’s lips since 2014. A wave of false reports began at that time and has not stopped to this day. Very specific narratives have emerged that appear again and again - and with them the corresponding false reports.

A historical overview sheds light on the matter. But who or what is actually behind all of this? The media and its problems play a crucial role here, politics even more so! Because even if social media seems chaotic at first glance, there are still structures and power relationships.

Whoever has the authority to interpret also determines the narrative. A particularly drastic example of this is the current pandemic. Not only are all the threads brought together here, but a lot of conspiracy theories are also brought to the fore. An escalating dynamic that was entirely predictable, but not everyone was aware of it.

Who is behind the virus? Why were they reptilians? And why does everyone just want to scare us (blackout)?

Unfortunately, the answer to these questions can ultimately be a little disturbing - but who knows, maybe we can find a way out of this escalation. And is porn really the solution?

The Internet is for P*rn – a reckoning with the last 10 years of social media
