I will gladly admit when/if I'm wrong, but the fact that this came from a completely random photo from a completely anonymous person on 4chan and it blew up so fast -- it feels like a set up to me.

Just be extra vigilant when sourcing/verifying things, please.

I agree. I found some photos that look bad for sure, but I also get the same sense as you.

The "Dead on Arrival" is from Manhatten Knights Clothing shop Website;

This is their Tumbler page - a link from their clothing webpage;

I've seen several photos that, while certainly creepy or weird, don't necessarily point to them doing anything wrong.

This excuse could be used on every instagram pic of Comet Ping Pong and friends that we have seen so far in the last 3 months...

Hi memegod, I was the one who found and posted drawbertson's account and that photo in particular in the /pol/ thread. It was directly linked to Manhattan Knights. As in, he had liked and commented on photos they and other associated accounts posted.

What am I looking at in the first link? I just see an ordering page?

EDIT: nvm, I see what you meant, the reason for returning an item.

Yes, which is exactly why I also said to keep digging, just don't make any knee-jerk assumptions. People should be doing that anyways, but I'm always cautious of new leads because it could be a third party trying to get this sub shut down.
