The page lacks an image, so I think it could use one.

How would this do?

While I believe the purpose of the nrlep is that strawmen can't exist in real life and that's a satire pic where they can, I don't think it's a particularly good idea anyway, as it's a bit flamebaity.

Okay, good to know it's a bad idea.

Yeah, I don't think it's an example due to NRLEP (the actual companies can't be troped, but a political cartoon is a work that could be), but yeah, it could be taken as Flame Bait.

Since the suggestion tanked right away and this didn't go anywhere afterward, I'm gonna go ahead and close this.
