Artist Pedro Abrunhosa commented on the impact of social media on contemporary communication. According to him, lies circulate more quickly on digital platforms because they are considered more attractive and appealing for this type of medium.

Abrunhosa considered that "we live in this time in which the word has become a terrible weapon", warning about the dangers of disinformation. His statements come in the context of a broader debate about the role of social media in today's society and the challenges that the spread of fake news represents.
