Conservative pundit slams MLP fanbase as "effeminate" and "un-manly"

[Zenoctilles 102]

A well known conservative pundit has decided to shed a few thoughts on what he thinks of bronies. Note, he has a very negative impression of the show:

I understand if the show isn't his cup of tea. That's fine. But bashing people over their interests and considering them the scum of the earth is a new low. I'm not sure if he's trolling for pageviews or not, but even his own readership was somewhat critical of his opinions.

WHY is he comparing people who like MLP to people fighting in Afghanistan???

 

Jesus Christ, they're fighting for FREEDOM over there, why doesn't that include the freedom of rights to enjoy children's cartoons?

[Champion RD92 8,658]

That's the biggest load of bullshit I've ever read...and I thought Fox News was bad -__-

 

Seriously, that picture isn't even G4...

 

Maybe if that guy did some f***ing research he would know that MLP:FIM is not like the older gens

 

It's not just about unicorns and rainbows...omfg...whoever wrote this needs to f***ing die

Technically, it is somewhat about rainbows but still.

Also, I think I heard Fox News was just joking.

And yeah, that was a horrible article.

Which is why EVERY SINGLE PERSON WHO ISN'T A BRONY FIGHTS IN AFGHANISTAN

......Frankly, I don't know what I like less about the guy; his use of the word 'terrifying', his whole state of mind, his comparison of the brony community to the military, or the fact that he has access to the internet at all...

[Lily Sapphire 65]

Well, first off: he used a picture from the previous generations to head the article, which arguably was much more 'frilly' than the current generation!

 

I can't help but feel the anti-femininsm wave kicking in with all this lashback against male fans; these critics are likely insecure with their own sexuality and so project that insecurity on those who can see past gender stereotypes and the previous connotations of the series. And losers with a childish obsession? I suppose he's too old to appreciate Disney movies, too. And fun, for that matter. Who sounds like the loser now?

 

MLP:FIM is genuinely a good, fun, light hearted show, and might I add there is not one unicorn in the show that spouts rainbows from its horn. The rainbow is from a pegasis!

[Zenoctilles 102]

That Red Eye segment on Fox News mocking the show? Yeah, it was a joke. This is a more serious assertion on the author's part.

[Page.Turner 940]

Doesn't this article actually go against everyone's ANTI-BULLYING thing?

 

It should be removed. Whether it's a joke or not.

And then I knew the opinion didn't matter.

[Doctor XFizzle 8,669]

I refuse to click the link and give that person the pageviews they're desperately seeking.

 

So I guess it's super effeminate and unmanly to raise money for various charities and to promote tolerance, love, and friendship.

Real manly men don't give a **** about others and create all the enemies they can.

 

Good talk. I'll be here enjoying myself watching and drawing ponies while this guy has a miserable life full of shallowness and judgment.

[Pinkazoid 3,493]

Na'h... this people are the ones who make us stand out more, there's no other community that grew as fast as ours, the hate we get can be compared in a ratio to other communities, it's gonna be about the same, this guy is probably some fatass retard trying to sound professional about his post when it really doesn't make much sense, it's better to ignore this sort of things, instead of spreading them more =

.............. DAT SCUMBAG! I'm very monivated right now to make a brony video promoting bronies now... and make fun of brony haters.

Conservatives are the easiest things to cut down, lol. Those right-wing dumbshits are so sensitive.

 

Well, sometimes they do have a point when they make their assertions against the left. Not this time, however.

[Champion RD92 8,658]

Also, I think I heard Fox News was just joking.

 

Even if that's true, it was still incredibly offensive and Fox News was obviously very misinformed about bronies. They basically spread bullshit lies about us and mocked us. It pisses me off.

 

I'm referring to this video:

 

[Starshine 16,333]

Well, to be fair, it seemed the writer didn't even know that there's a G4 of MLP. He was stuck with a MLP G1 or G3 mindset, so of course he will bash anyone who watched that monstrosity of a pony show :/

Oh, get off your high horse. There is no harm in a little mockery here and there... but outright insults most people should not tolerate.

[Colon Leftbracket 971]

I'm not even gonna bother reading it.

Seriously, from what I gather he is hilariously uninformed. He probably just heard, "Hey My Little Pony is popular with older men." And he probably thought, "Well that's the type of stuff that gets views! Let's right things entirely misinformed and out of proportion just so we sound good."

 

 

WHY is he comparing people who like MLP to people fighting in Afghanistan???

 

Jesus Christ, they're fighting for FREEDOM over there, why doesn't that include the freedom of rights to enjoy children's cartoons?

 

I am legitimately scared on how he could write any sequence of words and phrases to make that comparison make any sense. There seriously is no conceivable way to make that make any legitimate sense unless he's actually Pinkie Pie in disguise!

[SrFrog 927]

Really? is this what the conservative agenda finds troublesome nowadays? Is there really nothing more important to report besides this.

[Colon Leftbracket 971]

shit... it appears I clicked the link...

 

Well might as well read it now and see this nightmare of a comparison!

[Page.Turner 940]

More important? Hmmmm... yeah, how about talking about a legal system that lets rapists walk free while we all blame the victim. Oh wait, adults who watch children's shows are WAYYYY more important.

[Radiance64 7,053]

I'm not clicking that link.

[MVC NVMXD JVRXD 2,406]

All the while, as these pathetic sissies giggle like school girls over magic unicorns that spray rainbows from their horns

Omg remember when Twilight sprayed that rainbow all over rainbow dash?!

 

He didn't even watch the show. #facehoof

[Proctra Music 335]

LOL I saw that "spakle unicorn..." I was about to die of laughter.

[Colon Leftbracket 971]

" violence is an important option for defeating evil"

umm... no really, its not... That's a much more childish thing to believe in than the non-violence and tolerance of My Little Pony.

 

(Time to make absurd comparisons) Like many civil rights movement leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. helped defeat the evils of racism through diplomacy and non-violence.

 

"scoring with green alien chicks is awesome."

 

Oh... score one for conservative man... At least he said one phrase that actually made legitimate sense... well completely fictional but still somewhat sensible.
