It looks photoshopped or ai generated. The contact area between hand and card doesn't seem enough to hold it up

    I regularly held my sign similarly at the last protest I went to 😅 your arms and hands get tired so you cycle through a lot of ways of holding them. Not all of them are the most practical

    With the angle of the hand and the thumb on the side closest to us as it is, this sign would be smashed between the first two fingers and the upper palm. It would be facing almost straight at the camera. Something is fishy here. It's possible it's real and the shot was taken as their grip was shifting, but the hand is crisp, so fishy fishy.
