I don't want to spoil it, but the reviews may indicate it for you.

Equestria is not a utopia but it is the closest one we could see in fiction other than the Star Trek example you gave.

Humans are lucky we don't have fictional villains to deal with on top of the real life villains we have in power. It's as I said before, had Queen Chrysalis not been a fictional character and she attacked Earth without opposition, humans would be finished. She is a master infiltrator as shown in episode A Canterlot Wedding, who almost succeeded in defeating Mane Six and Royal Sisters. If she were to do that on a larger scale on the human world, humans would be defenseless. Chrysalis doesn't have tanks, bombs and jets, but what she does have is shapeshifting, all she would need to do is manipulate people into depleting their resources, grinding down their allies, human ignorance would do the work for her. Also, if she summoned windigoes, we're definitely cooked. So yeah, good thing we don't have to deal with her.

Don't need Chrysalis to do all those things. We're perfectly capable of doing them ourelves. Have been since time immemorial.

I'd say MLP is a utopia, least compared to our sorry societies. Only thing you have to fear is repeated attacks by a species hell bent on taking your love, and even THEY eventually give that up? (For the most part). I'd consider that a utopia. Sure there are existential threats every no an than, like in Startrek. But at least there the whole world, or at least Equistria, but even a unified nation is powerful. As strong and brave as my own nation of Canada is with our sovereignty under threat, still we are not all united.

We agree Equestria is a better world, they may not be as technology advanced as us, but what they do have better than us in the show, is social cohesion. They don't prevent all invasions but they manage to prevent more conflict than we do.

Social co-hesion is a big step to utopia. True we shouldn't be like the Borg in StarTrek, but at least TRY to look out for each other would be a huge step forward.

I know Golem/Smeagol, Pippin, Samwise and Frodo, but that's it.

Everyone's gotta know of the hobbits. I gotta stream the movies for you once I figure out how. You might love them.

I should say my goodbyes to the MLPF now, soon it’ll be the Smeagol Forums.

Oh gods I hope not. As much as I love LOTR? I doubt their fan base is as great as this.

I hate myself for bringing this up with Snoopy Fan now, I feel like the negativity from my recent complaints about a spinoff he likes has hurt him, that was not my intention, but that is what I feel has happened. Now all I am wishing, is for that pain to be taken away, I did not want to bring his mood down, I really hope this does not affect his ability to sleep tonight.

That's the guy with the one eye, right? :zipp-wut: Feeling intimidated. :blink:

He only got the one eye after he lost the ring. Before that he was a full hooman. Like the rest of us....if we were ponies of course. Wait.....you guys are ponies, right? :trixieshiftright:

That’s one way to make it quick, I’ll take it.
