Contemporary Social Issues in MLP


LED Dasher

Recommended Posts

For a show intended for a younger audience, MLP: FIM seems to force people to take a deeper look into contemporary social issues that are faced today. 

 

Here are some things I found:

 

Ponyville Confidential: This episode looks into the impact news media has on individuals in a society. 

Hearth's Warming Eve: This episode attempts to explain inequality. 

One Bad Apple: This episode explores bullying, including why it occurs in the first place.

The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000: This episode explores capitalism.

 

What social issues do you think MLP has explored so far?

What social issues do you think MLP has explored so far? 

 

 

Let me go through things one at a time:

 

1)I think it was more about the effects of spreading nasty rumors about people(something many kid deal with in school)

 

2)I guess, but I think it was more about how getting along with get you further than fighting. You could say it was about looking past differences in general though.

 

3)common one, but MLP handled it well.  

 

4)I don't even know here, I think it was more a message against greed in general. It was Flim and Flam's greed that undid them in the end.
