An image showing Japanese fans expelling Lula da Silva (PT) from the stands of a football stadium during the World Cup was generated by artificial intelligence. The content, shared on X, was used as political satire targeting the Brazilian President. “Japanese are really special people. After the game, they always remove the trash from the stadium”, says the caption. 

It is possible to see that this is a manipulation due to the fantasy and plasticized appearance of the images. Furthermore, the image comes with a watermark from the Gemini tool.
