Has MLP ever offended you?

[Astralshy 23,599]

No, I'm not offended. I also don't think there would be away for a cartoon show to offend me.

[Reality Check 627]

Dis-including 'Fame and Misfortune', no, no I haven't

[Savygriffs 5,022]

It's never offended me in any way shape or form. It's a cartoon how in the hell would it offend me lmao

I can't stop talking about this. The fact that they hyped up Rainbow Dash's journey to become a Wonderbolt, then gave us this dumpster fire of an episode. If Rainbow taught Fluttershy to be assertive, why couldn't she be assertive in this episode. This episode could've been done so much better, even give it a much better title. The title offended me even. 

Also, don't get me started on the Derpy Hooves fiasco back in Season 2. It offended me that the producers actually listened to those people who were offended by Derpy. This is the realism of MLP, and if you don't like it, TOO BAD!!

Too much negative energy to be offended at a cartoon, seriously.

I have been disappointed in some episodes, but not offended by them.

When I saw this episode, it was the first time since I started watching this show where it felt like the writers hated the audience and the show they were working on. Unfortunately wouldn't be the last

I don't think I've ever gotten offended by a cartoon, and I've definitely never gotten offended by a cartoon for little girls. I prefer not to imagine actual problems pointing at me and laughing. 

[Will Guide 21,325]

Never really offended by anything in FiM I'm just disappointed at worst.

if I wanted to be offended I'd watch a compilation of of all "Disney is racist and anti-Semitic" jokes from Family Guy

The fact that they would name a pony “Stinky Bottom” is offensive in its own right 

I don't remember that character appearing anywhere? Remind me.

Not even a fan of modern Disney, and I completely agree that those jokes are painfully unfunny, redundant, and rooted in lies. They do not offend me though, I just find them lame.

Only it's fans offended me

[Stardust 640]

I think it is the least offensive thing around. It's not like u gonna get yo mama jokes or whatever haha. Ofc there are some portrayals the reflect on life that might upset ppl or aren't done that well.

Why would I get offended by a cartoon? Probably the only way I would get offended by a TV show is if it included a lot of political propaganda, while not being a politically-themed show. However, the propaganda that FIM included was possible to justify within the show and ignore some other parts, so no problem there.

Same..... Maybe it's because we ain't die hard fans of RD....but then again I'm a die hard fan of pinkie.....  it's really hard to not be a hypocrite...

The closest an ep came to offending me was Feeling Pinkie Keen. The message of that ep still rubs me the wrong way. Even that ep was pretty cute though :3

The sickly sweetness of some of the G2/3 fare and the recent pingu-like silent clay-mationy pony eps offended me a bit I suppose. But only because I want to like all media which has an MLP logo on it. Joke's on me there

No, and I think it'd be silly to be offended

>Comment made in April 2016

Evidently the writers took this comment as a challenge since then

Did I really make this thread? 

I'm so glad I've grown out of searching for things to be upset about. 

How I miss thought-provoking media that took risks and aimed to entertain and educate, a true rarity today. 

I would have made a great journalist back then, huh?

He appears briefly trying to sell hats in the episode where Rarity and AppleJack got sent to Manehattan.
