About this comic
Elo explores a world where content moderation is disappearing, and digital identity is being redefined. As platforms abandon the idea of filtering falsehoods, they instead create barriers that separate users based on who they are rather than what they say.
The image satirizes this shift, presenting a login screen where traditional options like Google, Facebook, and Apple coexist with dystopian choices like “Sign in with IQ” and “Sign in with DNA.” In this reality, access isn’t granted based on credentials or merit but on inherent traits—intelligence, genetics, or other exclusive markers.
These options don’t filter truth—they filter people. Instead of ensuring fairness or accuracy, they define who gets to participate. It’s a digital evolution where identity itself becomes a gatekeeper, deciding who is heard, who is ignored, and who is excluded entirely.
For Elo, this signals a new challenge: navigating a world where the truth is no longer controlled, but access to speak it is.
