Are we REALLY that hated?

[Kothen 279]

Like holy beans. I normally avoid Cringe videos because the reactions are usually more cringe than the actual content. But the results in this video

 

 

 

Thats Insane how much more we are hated compared to the other "cringe" fandoms

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The others were pretty even split. 

[1Bit 1,531]

Well I still find it funny since the creator of the video is a brony of sorts  

 

but the reason we're so 'hated' is because we're much more relevant and 'out there' at this point than many other cringe fandoms it would seem.

[Megas 27,828]

Nowadays I think it's more common to see more people annoyed of haters than bronies, but that's just me

[Ziggy + Angel + Rain 11,303]

Since the competition was round-based, it just looks to me as though people find "Furries" to be less cringe-inducing than "Bronies."  *Shrugs.*  Not that I care. xD

[Sapphire Lightning 784]

Im not a furry, but is it just me that thinks that the Blue Dog furry costume is pretty darn sweet looking? Well made and I love the colors and patterns. (Then again blue looks like gemstone to me even if it is something soft. Such a deeeeeep color)

[Dark Qiviut 22,464]

Considering that a lot of idiots/anti-bronies/SJWs still sucker themselves into buying anti-brony stereotypes, using ableist and homophobic slurs to reference bronies, and uploading cringe videos to bully them, I'd say so.

 

But if they're gonna guilt-trip me for being a brony, their loss. All it does is speak so much about who they are and not what bronies are.

[Kothen 279]

I guess I just care too much about what people think about me. Insecurities I guess.

[Fluttershyfan94 5,742]

I don't see why we should care in the first place. Though, I think the cause of it may be that some bronies are more "in your face" about it. Some people find such behavior offputting, either way I'd rather some are that way instead of some fascists group. We are a diverse group, it's something I find interesting and enjoyable.

[Solid 1,327]

Hmmm, I'm having déjà vu here.

[Ponies4Bronies 394]

He should be brought before the block for this.

Meh, my opinion has changed watching it a second time. I actually sort of liked it. It was just an editorial on the videos the fandom produces. And I do agree with them that the guy asking about Celesta being a molester and the guy getting slammed with pure cringe.

Same reason I avoid them. The comments that have made me cringe the most are the ones that say things like "we need a brony holocaust" or any comments about killing people that are [insert fandom here]. Yes, people should be killed over the fact that they're a fan of a movie, TV show, etc. And they say we're the ones with problems. Sometimes I think "we aren't hated that much" other times I'm like "holy shit, they do hate us that much." This is a video that addresses the common criticisms thrown at the brony fandom.

[Kothen 279]

It just suck seeing a pony video or something pony related in a video and the dislike bar is visible and the comments are "Kill them all!" 

[Comic Sans 401]

Either I've learned to ignore the haters, or they just don't seem to be as common anymore.

[Gestum 2,493]

The only thing that it shows is that people find bronies more cringe inducing then furries. And to be honest I agree with them.

The votes on that video aren't really surprising. At first, men watching MLP does seem cringeworthy. It's only when you actually watch the show and understand it that you realize that bronies aren't that weird. Most of those voters probably haven't even given the show a chance.

 

That awkward looking Applejack suit probably didn't help matters either. Show those people something great from the fandom, like say, the "Lullaby for a Princess" animation, and many opinions would change.

[KatonRyu 1,033]

Every fandom has cringy things in it. The thing with bronies is that they're very well known by the mainstream to the point there are documentaries about it and it's actually described as a phenomenon. I think that's what contributes most to the level of hate. Aside from that, I think the stereotypical 'love and tolerate' aspect of it seems like it would make the fandom a very easy target. I mean their view is something along the lines of 'fedora-tipping neckbeard manchild hippies' as opposed to the stereotypical fans of everything else which are often just 'fedora-tipping neckbeards', and if that truly is the view they have of this fandom than the number of stereotypes alone seems to warrant the hate.

 

All in all, it's not very important though. Just ignore it, because trying to fight it will only make things worse.

[Black Sabbath 2,486]

This is just ridiculous. All that the results in this video shows is that people find this fandom to be more cringe inducing than furries, it doesn't show that we're hated by more people.  

[chirox the pony 1,336]

You people really need to stop taking these guys so seriously. There are silly people who like all kinds of things. I admittedly find a lot of these compilations funny despite enjoying some of the things these people obsess over. You know when I was six years old I admitted to liking powerpuff girls in primary school. I believe I was mocked for it (even though I guarantee at least half those boys also liked it). And guess what, I still watched that show in the privacy of my own home. I didn't think much about the crap I got for it and just continued to enjoy it (and I was six years old). I suggest you all do the same. 

[Trinitron Keys 89]

There were people who hated me before I was on the brony scene. The same haters from when I was on the Goth scene, and even back during the Punk Rock scene. These days they won't say much face to face, my being nearly 7ft tall and 200+ pounds being the deterrent.

[Mentis Soliloquy 3,027]

I don't get much hate anymore, my friends are ok when I don't push anything on them (which is hard because I love so much MLP stuff), strangers in the street don't even notice my MLP shirts when I wear them. On gaming sites and pub games I get some love some respect and some hate but meh so do all the other fans out there so, bugger them.

[Tapfire 92]

The video in question I found funny. It's not a "Hey look at these retards, how could they like this" more of a "Oh god why do these videos exist" but to a theme. It's all in good fun, and I don't see why people would have a problem with it. However, the hatred has more evolved into disinterest, that it's pointless to bicker on the internet at a person you don't know. As for the Bronies vs Furries "More Cringey" stuff, I think it was partially bronies who wanted to see their own fandom move on, because a lot of the videos on Cringe Wars are funny. Simple as.

[EverEverOn 346]

I've watched this video before, and I honestly didn't care. The real cringe-worthy people are the haters who comment on these videos in the first place.

[cider float 2,538]

Could you imagine what it would be like there in comparison to just watching it?

 

You would be cringing so hard you could see the ripples forming around you

[MickeyAdaptus 2,211]

We are not nessecarely being hated, some people just tend to find bronies weird becus of their own reasons.

What i am saying is not to be ment offensive.

From our perspective, ponies and these sorts of things are completely normal, its just a normal day hobby like evryone has.

But from their perspective, they may find it weird saying people like things like ponies etc, thats my point.

Most people are not used to seeing things like these, while we are all the time.

 

I have a older sister, en when she saw a brony liking these things, she was like: ummmmm okay....

(i never told her i was a brony, and i probelly never will tell anyone in real life)

 

But thats my point, bronies aren't being really hated (except for those people on the internet who have nothing else to do then hating on a certain group of people) but thats my point.

 

Some people like to express it to other people that they are bronies, and some do not.

 

That is completely up to you wether you want it to tell other people or not, its from their view of perspective that we question alot if we are being hated alot.
