celestia isn't a corrupt tyrant or a troll

[Jangocoolguy 433]

It's mainly for fun, especially since they keep giving us stuff to work with.

 

Thing is, if she did get involved more often, she would literally be a Deus Ex Machina--in this case, Deus Ex Eques--immediately and completely solving the Mane 6's problem for them (like in Lesson Zero).

 

The thing people don't realize is that the day to day activities of running a kingdom are very, very time consuming and not so easy--as Luna found out in the last issue of the IDW Micro Series!

The tyrant label is clearly a joke and is never used seriously. I'm not quite sure why this guy felt he had to make a video on it

Not sure, if not serious. I've read enough fictions and comments below.

I wouldn't be surprised, if he's even absolutely right with the things about autocracy. His bashing at the fandom in the end was a bit too much, though i can understand his frustration.

I agree with many of the above posts, they've made several small and subtle attempts to make her relatable, but what they need to do is make an episode dedicated to her informal personality and background.

well she does force twilight to deal with sotuations that could potentially kill her in order to make her stronger. But yeah, i know she has no intention of killing twilight. Her end goal is to turn twilight into an alicorn.

 

And I said enough on other threads why I think that what she did in MMC was still terrible.

HA! Yes, all she did was select another person from a small age that isnt her child and plan out her entire life for her and then turn her into an alicorn, without asking, using a 'Batman Gambit' as a means of tricking her into it.

 

That's totally what good teachers do.

thats been my point all along she isnt all kind and motherly. She knows whats best for equestria, and she's willing to destroy a life for the betterment of the...uh..continent? I dont know what equestia is

Some people always want to bring the good down to their level. They can't really understand them so they have to misinterpret them to make them look bad.
