Fashion attracts tons of fascists, so I appreciate the mods vigilance with an unknown poster like Troika.

I’m referring to his other hand. And I’m aware of the ambiguity around the “OK” gesture—due to its many mundane uses in everyday life—which is what lends its use as a hate symbol such convenient plausible deniability, particularly for racist trolls.

That's a peace sign. This is the WP sign is more like an OK. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OK_gesture

Hello, yes I'll take this one now.

I did have a photo up where I was doing the ?and have since swapped out the photo because a mod asked me to do so. I apologize for the ill conceived attempt at humor, and I appreciate the forum's vigilance in looking out for alt-right nonsense and making sure that folks are not actually being problematic. I guess the gesture is not really mine to take back to middle school games because it is still very much a thing amongst some wicked people.


I appreciate all of the feedback on my fit. I do get unduly excited when any shirt fits me from a modern brand like niche because of my size. Fwiw, I washed/dried it, and it shrunk 2 sizes easily, and fits a bit more traditionally now, which is probably a good thing for my body type.
Makes sense. I thought I was losing my mind for a minute.

How ******* pathetic that people can't even do a hand gesture - in a clearly non-political context - without someone virtue signaling.

Yes, how pathetic we live in a world where things like pointy white hats, burning crosses, swastikas, and whatnot take on charged meanings even in apolitical contexts due to the actions of hateful assholes. Glad we agree.

You're not a good person because you pressured troika into taking down a fit pic on styleforum.net. You did nothing of any positive value whatsoever.

How virtuous of you to stand up for his “It’s a free country!” rights on a private forum.

hey dude according to this post you made youre short and fat

So along with those chinos, I also bought a pair of TCB slim 50s in size 34 and had them hem it to 30". According to Denimio's size chart, size 34 has these measurements:

maybe take that into account before you post?

Short? Yes. Fat? No. A quick glance through my post history would illustrate that as well as the fact that I'm bad at outfits.

Your post is a really bad attempt to derail the conversation and evoke an emotional response.

Nothing changes: you're not a good person for pressuring someone to remove a harmless fit pic.
