Parents telling little girls to NOT watch MLP?

[WarGrowlmon1990 94]

It's parents like these that make me lose faith in humanity. They sound like a bunch of extremist sanctimommies who do more harm than good to their children. I myself am a young parent but I'm also a pegasister. I'll be very happy if my son turns out to be a brony when he gets older.

[Nulln 755]

Parents are not fans of other parents.  That is a secret parent fact.

My son can watch My Little Pony if he wants (which he doesn't, he likes his Bubble Guppies.  lol).

There's no talking to these people, though.  My cousin says she doesn't like bronies because they're all perverts, even though I like MLP.  

 

As for the worry of young children looking up pony pron and violent pony vids and such, this is where the parents come in!  The parents should be the ones checking out every website and video these kids go on and watch before the kids are allowed on them.  If you let your kids go on the internet on their own, searching for MLP or anything else for that matter, they are going to see things you do not want them to see.

I really can't believe this is such a fuss. I have really never heard such nonsense in my lifespan. :L 

the best part is that pretty much all anti-bronies complain endlessly about how bronies freak out over everything and how we're evil and satanic and insane and ruining children's lives when really they're the only ones making a fuss out of it. :/

[~SadisticFluttershy~ 779]

Omg, This really ticks me off.

 

These parent's really need to stop being abunch of assumers and think they really know what the Brony Fandom is. They think they know what we are when really, they don't shit! So they need to GTFO out of our business and leave us alone. 

 

I don't understand where the hell they are getting "Pedo's, rapists etc". cause to me, that's just rediculous! Really tells their dumb way of judgement. I don't get why these parent's are getting onto us for liking a show. It's funny how they think they can end the fandom which to me is just bucking halarious why? cause we are WAY too big for ANY such event to happen. There's what over 100 million bronies in the entire world? sure that's a small percentage, but compare that to 66 signatures that were on that page. 100 Million vs 66= WE WIN AUTOMATICALLY. There is no way in hell that hasbro would cancel the show because of these dumbfounded morons. They should just let their young children watch the show and never get told about the gore/mature/adult side of the fandom, it's that simple!! but instead they rage and try to end our rein of bronydom and basically *squee* all of us over. What they really need to understand is that we will NEVER do such thing to their children because we are not that way and never will be! I'm sick of these morons calling us pedofiles, rapists, creepers you know what i'm talking about, I'm just sick of it. Those parent's have crossed the line and it's NEVER a good idea to mess with a fandom that is the largest in the world cause you know what, you ain't going to win PERIOD!!.

 

Nuff said.

No, they would cancel it very quickly. They see dollar signs, and parents that organize enough to get that many signatures would also get media attention and manage a good enough push that Hasbro would pull it all in a heartbeat.

Because this wouldn't just affect the MLP franchise, it'd affect ALL of their franchises. To them thats a bad thing.

 

And throwing out "largest in the world" is a mass exaggeration. While possibly most currently active, its hardly larger than older things like Star Trek, Star Wars, or LotR.

They just aren't nearly as active in their many many portals of commune since they've all had time to settle in and blend.

Though do you understand my point that I was getting across? 

I seriously hope you did because a small paragraph can say alot.

More or less.

But soccer moms have greater power even in small numbers than any number of "fans"

It only takes a dozen or so ACTUAL complainers to pull it off.

A petty online petition thats probably never even been brought to hasbro's attention won't get very far regardless.

Now if they actually began calling Hasbro or the Hub, and organizing meetings with the company, or a tiny picket line... Whole dif story.

And you know what? these dumbfounded parent's really just need to leave us alone because they are picking a fight with us.

There is no point at all for them to get up in our business when they don't know crap!

[FNGRpony 658]

I really don't see the problem. 

parents can choose what their kids watch.

 

their suppose to.  It's there job as a parent for better or worse to make that decision.

There is no problem here.

FNGR, I don't think that's the point.

 

The point is that they're saying we're all pedophiles and such. Now, I'm not really sure what to do about that save for setting an example that we're not, but that is definitely wrong for them to assume something like that.

 

You're right, parents can control what they're kids watch, but when it comes to doing it because an entire fanbase of people are pedophiles... yeah, I kind of have a problem with being told I'm a criminal.

[Guest]

It's such a shame how common this type of ignorance and stupidity is in the world. Imagine how better the world would be if everyone were better educated.

ahem,

they can do that LOL.

they can do that based on your race, color, creed, hair color, the type gum you may or not not chew.  And literally nothing you can do about it.

Not in this world, or even if this was equistra itself, parents would still have the right to raise their kids to be douche bags (diamon tiara, silver spooon).

 

There is no crisis here.  Remember when south park made a thinly vailed accusation that scientoligsts were pedofiles or catholics.

Congratulations you like something that's popoular enough to make you a target of advanced scorn.

Its by the numbers hate, nothing especially special about it my friend. 

 

DO you know what the FNGR stands for?

For

no

good

reason ^^.  Words to live by.

Yes, FNGR, they can do that.

 

And we can sit here and be salty about it too. So I mean... I'm not sure what your point is. Yes, people bash other people with accusations, and they're within their rights...

 

But the people they're bashing also have the right to either bash back or set the facts straight.

 

So I almost feel like you're taking their side in this issue when they're bashing you. Now, do I mind it that much? As I said, no. I do not like being called a criminal, but, like I also just said, the most we can do is either talk back to the people saying this or simply set an example.

 

Even so, you can't please everyone. Even if we were all immaculate people, we would still catch flak just because of what we like.

[FNGRpony 658]

It's a shame people keep acting shocked about or that education would make it disappear.

There's always going to be widly different and offensive conceptions in life,

look at muslim culture and what's socially acceptable for woman over there.

 

The idea that if we simply slapped a college degree on someone like that, he'd cease to practice his socieitys' morals is lunacy.

Let them call you scum.  Let them think your the creapy thing that goes bump in the night.  Why figh it?  The grass is greener on the darker side ^^. 

 

Honestly if i found out liking MLP made me a terrible person it would ake all the guilt out of liking it LOL.

And here i thought liking death metal, combat sports, history because it's ripe with blood shed and suffering made me a terrible person.

 

Tut, it was ponies LOL.  Who would knew.

 

Dear celestail,

today I learned dawing at flutter shy making squee noises makes my soul three shades darker than nightfal.

 

That's incredably epic.

I think you misunderstood me. Being educated and going to college and getting a degree are not the same things. I mean if everypony were more intelligent, not willfully ignorant and had critical thinking skills. If everypony were tolerant, caring, and understanding, the world would be a better place and issues like this would likely not exist, because things like this are a clear example of possessing intolerance, ignorance, and stupidity.

Well every p... BODy (talks through teeth LOL),

how do you absoulutely know acceptance is the correct path and based on what?

 

If you answer is your core values, your assuming everyone has to accept you core values or be will fully ignorant.

You don't see any irony in that at all?

 

I don't like here the term "stupidy and intolerance." because it creates the mental image of all bigots are sitting around and watching bug lights on week end nights for fun.  You vastly underestimate your oppponent.

 

There's alot fo time, effort, and thought that goes into racism and maintaining racism.

Imagine being a president for example and instead of focusing on taxes, world peace, or cursing disease you made you your big point on making sure homo sexuals shouldn't be aloud to marry.

 

Seems rather inconvenyent if you ask me.

I don't feel knowledge, or Iq dictate open mindedness.

 

IN fact I think you could be utterly simply minded and be very accepting.

Like say Derpy.  (makes you wonder would a discorded derpy be a huge biggot?)

[Guest]

how do you absoulutely know acceptance is the correct path and based on what?

Well I guess I don't but it's just what makes the most sense to me. I realize other people could have a different opinion, but again, I think that's just because they're stupid, or weren't raised right. Makes sense right? I don't know maybe that's just circular logic but that's what I think anyway.

You don't see any irony in that at all?

I don't even know what you mean by this because it's so poorly worded, perhaps if you're going to engage in a debate you should proofread your posts and make sure others can understand them. And really I gain nothing by arguing a point I already know is correct and I know I'm not going to change your mind so I'm just going to stop here, there's no point in me trying to educate you, it's something you have to discover on your own.

 

Totally relevant video

[FNGRpony 658]

Ah you went typo elitet on me because your content of your posts coulnd't defend your values.  Once again.

 

If you answer is your core values,

If you telling me what you base what's right or wrong on is wha you value,

 

your assuming everyone has to accept your core values or be will fully ignorant.

You don't see any irony in that at all?

 

That everyone else has to judge them selves by your perception. 

Judging by the video your calling me an idiot because you to much of a coward to post it.
you don't wish to be debated, or questioned

and because I don't agree with you i'm a moron.

 

And you totally feel vindicated by giving up and walking away.  you sure showed me.

Yes, my friend, ponies make you a horrible person, I'm glad you've finally learned this.

 

Now let us strap on our combat gear, mount our Pegasi, and fly over the land spreading happiness and friendship, the two most despicable things known to mankind.

[Captain_Rainbow 15]

THANK GOD my parents are nothing like that. they hate adventure time and the amazing world of gumball, but do they try to stop me watching? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

Brrr that's enough to make a guy go good (LOL).

I'm picturing combat gear being those pony ears from equistra gear,
