Is Ponyville the most conservative society in Equestria?

Let's take in count some aspects:

 

- They thought Zecora was an evil witch, which means witchery was a taboo

- They didn't know what a zebra was

- They seemed to think a zebra was like an envoy from hell

- They didn't know there was a tricky flower in the forest

- They never listened to Twilight when she tried to show the good side of Zecora and Nightmare Moon

- They never listened to Nightmare Moon when she tried to convince them she wanted to be good

I don't quite agree with all of your statements. If anything, it proves the town of Ponyville lacks in common sense and good judgement, but i don't think they're conservative per se.

Okay 1: they stayed out of the forest due to fear so o course they woudln't know bout posion joke

2: What Good side of nightmare moon what wasn't what happened.

3: What? she was never good!

I wouldn't read too much into those things. All of these are more plot conveniences to tell a story by the writers. And seeing how they don't care too much about continuity (some episodes the townspeople are great, sometimes they're insufferable), I don't think their society is all that defined. Also this question is malformed (although I guess you probably mean it more as a hyperbole), since we really don't know too much about the other societies in Equestria.

I wouldn't really apply terms like conservative to Equestria. While I'm sure politics exist; I doubt they really have a concept of things like conservatism or anything like that.

 

Besides, what you described would really be related more to simple ignorance; not whether they're conservative or what not.

Uhm... Did you watch Luna Eclipsed?

 

You should probably refer to her as Princess Luna instead of Nightmare Moon considering that she was no longer Nightmare Moon by that point in the series.
