Is this a real photo?

I see the tag 'ChatGPT composite photo' and I presume that means the part with Chris Minns is composited onto the background, but I want to know if the photo of Chris Minns is real. I can't find any others with him wearing a shawl and a kippah.

As many others have mentioned here and on his YouTube channel - love Michael West's work, but his regular use of ChatGPT and other LLM AI run by the enemies of the people is.. Troubling. Do better.

The Keffiyeh is the garment that Chris Minns has effectively made illegal. The overlay of the Keffiyeh on Chris Minns with his regular wearing of the kippah is to show his double standards of one cultural garment over another.

Thanks, I didn't know what the name was for the keffiyeh.

I'm still against the use of AI to add it onto a politician in a convincing way - especially when the image tagline is vague. It just undermines the legitimacy of the article (which is otherwise an entirely fair and appropriate article).
