Fedoras are cool, just because 99% of Americans don't know how to dress doesn't mean the rest of the world should stop wearing them.

I tried to tell a guy on Twitch once hoping maybe he was just joking around but he seemed oblivious to the whole thing. Told me I was crazy.
It has nothing to do with how you dress. Well, it does but it also has to do with age, physical build and face symmetry.
Thank you GAF, expected laughs coming in here and wasn't disappointed. This and the professional atheism gif brought tears to these eyes

it has all to do with how you dress, sure those points you added my make it look "better" on some people, but if you don't have the right outfit then it is gonna look shit regardless. It is a complimentary piece and should not be the main focus of an outfit.

There's nothing wrong with wearing a fedora or cargo pants. Most people won't care if you wear those. The people who care are the ones who perpetuate this generalization.

People with fedoras are awesome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dO9dwDKUMU8
I have an Indy-style Fedora (i.e. not a trilby) that I wear sometimes if I'm out in the sun a bunch. Pretty much the only time I'd wear it, though.
The funny part is that my other sun-hat (which gets probably a bit more use, mostly for work) is way less fashionable than the Fedora is, but would still carry a lot less stigma.

I used to wear a trilby BUT in my favour were 1. it was an expensive hat I found on sale so the material quality and design were good. and 2. I have a small face so the design suits my face. Ironically a fedora would better suit the bigger guys you see who wear trilby hats.
This is the craziest thing I've ever seen, it's like a comedy sketch bought to life (if it isn't really a comedy sketch?)

The worst is people who wear backpacks at parties to carry all their vaping juices. "These cargoes can only carry so much!"

I ummm....have one. I wear it very rarely and when I bought it, I was not aware of it being a holy symbol of internet atheists. I swear.

You all wish you could pull it off like me.
Saw a dude driving around some 84 Dodge car thing with a bumper-sticker that read "Vaping Is Not a Crime!"
I think we can all agree that the worst of all people are those who treat Vaping seriously.

Stretch slim-skinny jeans are probably more comfortable along with being flattering on skinny guys. Cargo pangs are only fine if you're working at a manual labor job.

I'm certain that it's cargo shorts that people are ragging about (regular ones are fine by me). Mainly because it fits the profile of these types of individuals.
Man, cargo shorts are ruined now? I'm wearing a pair at work right now! God dammit!
As far as hats go, I only really ever wear baseball caps. Even then, it's been years since I wore one.

I think you're talking about goths back then. They were their own breed, and sometimes they wore fedoras. But in 2001, they were definitely not the r/atheism fedoras.
Every one of these outfits would be improved by removing the hat, and also maybe a bunch of other accessories. Less is more, in my opinion.
Fashion, in practical terms, is how you communicate an impression of yourself to others. The context and audience are very important. And at present wearing a fedora gives people a certain impression of you that you probably don't want people to have (see the videos and gifs posted here earlier). Same with cargo pants.
Hats also especially call a lot of attention to themselves since they are so rare nowadays.

Honestly man, most people don't think of them negatively when on shorts. It's pretty much just the guys online that are subscribed to male fashion advice sites that like to talk down on certain things. I agree with most of the advices from these sites but you shouldn't blindly run with what they say. A lot of their fashion advices only works in big cities and you'd end up looking gay where I live with some of the more trendy fashion. As for myself, I don't own a pair of cargo shorts but I don't immediately notice when other people are wearing it. I'm not that shallow. Fedoras, though, they stick out like a sore thumb on many of the people that sport it with mismatching attire. You don't have to be a fashion critic to notice that.
