Twiggy 2,967 October 18, 2015 Share October 18, 2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMDVx08hOuY I found this video just a while ago. It can explain the appeal to them in terms that they can understand. You should all check it out. My Ask Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chirox the pony 1,336 October 18, 2015 Share October 18, 2015 If the fact that this guy is subscribed to Stefan Molyneux wasn't bad enough the way he tries to twist this show into an ultranatonalist haven is just stupid. They did have native Americans very clearly represented. But according to this guy if they don't have it more then once then they clearly don't support forms of multiculturalism. And to claim that the various pony species are different nations is really stretching it. Whilst yes there are differences most of these are due to their powers. They all speak the same language and they don't seem to make much of such minor differences (wouldn't it be cool if we all did that?). Not to mention it's especially disgusting that he thinks the native Americans shouldn't be acknowledged. Topped off by the fact he used autism as an insult this video further shows the idiocy of the far-right. 4 No matter how hard I try these ponies will simply never leave me.

Alphys Hedge 671 October 18, 2015 Share October 18, 2015 I got to 2:38 and said "Okay, I'm done with this shit."If you call all bronies autists, then you ain't any part of us. Also, http://prntscr.com/8sobz4 The video is called "Is My Little Pony a Bad Influence?", but it hardly talks about it. Character in profile picture is Pearl from Steven Universe.

Dark Qiviut 22,585 October 18, 2015 Share October 18, 2015 He doesn't say all bronies are autists, just a very loud minority. Still doesn't change the point. The second he uses "autist" as an ableist slur, kiss his integrity goodbye. 3 "Talent is a pursued interest." — Bob Ross Pro-Brony articles: 1/2/3/4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphys Hedge 671 October 18, 2015 Share October 18, 2015 He doesn't say all bronies are autists, just a very loud minority. "Just a very loud minority", which implies he still thinks most bronies are autistic, and I don't necessarily appreciate that. If anyone uses autism as an insult, I automatically gain 100% hatred for them. 2 Character in profile picture is Pearl from Steven Universe.

Brony_B 128 October 18, 2015 Share October 18, 2015 This video says that the fandom is a problem. I don't think this would be a good recommendation for someone looking for resources in helping to explain why they like MLP. There are a few documentaries about bronies out there that would serve this purpose nicely. 1 Princess of Friendship Queen of Our Hearts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moved to Elsewhere 11,331 October 19, 2015 Share October 19, 2015 I can get passed most of what was said in the video since there was nothing of substance besides the whole you can plug in any other fans and use similar insults argument. But, I feel this video is click bait. The title is asking if the show is a bad influence yet not much was said about it. Also, bad fans of a show doesn't make the show a bad influence. It just means those particular fans are a bad influence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone uses autism as an insult, I automatically gain 100% hatred for them. It's the 80/20 rule. 20% of the fandom causes 80% of the drama and other stupid shit that makes the rest of the internet judge us. 1 Creator of MLP Ruined Vines and Recorder Sh*t Equestria's Biggest Hip-Hop Nerd Everyday is Leg Day!

GenderIsAnIllusion 2,178 October 19, 2015 Share October 19, 2015 Just to prove him wrong when he says that the first thing you see when you google my little pony is a bad influence and degenerative. Not a single bad influence to be had here. My peep is against bullying....

Kenshiro 13,499 October 21, 2015 Share October 21, 2015 Yes, maybe show could contain subliminal messages and sometimes i caught lots of it but i love the show's colorful world. I think he watch the show and possibly becoming a fan of the show but he can not admit it yet =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RavenholmZombie 1,330 October 21, 2015 Share October 21, 2015 Nope, for the most part, my family is very accepting of me being a part of this fandom. RavenholmZombie - Brony since 2011 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
