I managed to avoid ordering from Amazon this year but wanted to check up on a product name from some time earlier on... To be greeted by this splash page that totally looks like a bunch of AI slop clipart for the most part?
(I'm sorry if someone actually put effort into designing this.)

The image is a screenshot of a tweet from a user named "CK" with the handle "[@]charley_ck14." The tweet reads, "If there's a movie about Elon, I want him to be played by Kathy Bates." The tweet features two side-by-side images. On the left is a man in a black suit with a white shirt and black tie, and on the right is a woman in a red dress with lace trim and a black necklace. The woman is wearing earrings and has a serious expression. The background of both images is dark, focusing attention on the subjects.

Nach der Speichelleckerei auf dem NATO-Gipfel dachten ja viele, dass Obszönitäten in Sachen Trump kaum noch zu überbieten seien. Benjamin Netanjahu hat den Gegenbeweis angetreten. Er hat den vorläufigen Jahrhundertrekord der politischen Pornografie aufgestellt – den “Deep Throat” völkerrechtswidriger Vertreibung von Menschen.
Man muss sich die Tatsachen einmal vergegenwärtigen: Ein mit internationalem Haftbefehl vom internationalen Gerichtshof in Den Haag verfolgter Kriegsverbrecher schlägt einen Verfassungsbrecher, Wiederholungstäter sexueller Übergriffe auf Frauen, Begnadiger von Terroristen gegen die US-Verfassung und rechtswidrigen Deportierer von Migranten ohne Gerichtsurteil und unter Bruch des Verfassungsrechts für den Friedensnobelpreis vor.
Eine Dreistigkeit besonderer Güte
Einem Land wie Norwegen und einem Nobelpreiskommittee, die sich noch ganz anders als Deutschland auf die Einhaltung internationalen Rechts und des internationalen Gerichtshofs stützt. Welche Chuzpe! Um dann im Anschluss daran einem gebauchpinselten Trump unter den Augen der Öffentichkeit und ohne dessen Widerspruch unterzujubeln, dass Israel keine Selbstverwaltung der Palästinensern in einem eigenen Staat mehr dulden möchte. Zwei-Staaten-Lösung adé also – mal so nebenbei und Trump ist eh zu sehr von Eitelkeit geblendet, um direkt zu kontern, selbst wenn er es gewollt oder auch nur bemerkt hätte.
Wo bleibt die Reaktion Europas?
Bei allen “Dönekes” und Geschichten um die rechtsextremistischen Präsidenten der USA und Israels: Was ist eigentlich die Reaktion der EU-Ratspräsidentin auf diese skandalösen und verabscheuungswürdigen Selbstinszenierungen dieser beiden gewaltaffinen Böcke? Wäre nicht eine EU-Ratspräsidentin von der Leyen, wenn sie den Mumm hätte, prädestiniert, den beiden Rechtsbeugern zu widersprechen und moralisch heimzuleuchten und damit die EU auch international merkbar zu positionieren? Geht das wirklich nur in Sachen Ukraine-Krieg und Waffenlieferungen? Wer kann schweigen, wenn die Geiseln der Hamas immer noch nicht frei sind und stattdessen Frauen und Kinder im Gazastreifen täglich Opfer des Krieges zwischen Israel und der Hamas werden? Tun Sie was, Frau EU!

The image is a screenshot of a tweet from a user named "CK" with the handle "[@]charley_ck14." The tweet reads, "If there's a movie about Elon, I want him to be played by Kathy Bates." Below the text, there are two side-by-side images. On the left is a man in a black suit with a white shirt and black tie, and on the right is a woman in a red dress with white lace trim, wearing a necklace with a dark pendant and large earrings. The background of the images is dark, and the focus is on the individuals.
