Why am I the Only Member of Lightning Dust's Fanclub?

[Burning Question 69]

Well yeah, as an antagonist she's good. She's perfect bad example for people to NOT follow (which some seem to not understand...).

I'm not a member of the Lightning Dust fanclub. OP, I am in the indifferent category. I see why people like her, but honestly; it just doesn't do it for me.

Hey I love her design and personality.

 

She's like her Trixie.

Why is OP the only member of Lightning Dust's fanclub? Probably because Lightning Dust is a sociopath. The people who say "well, she's just a jerk" are a bit off the mark. She has the same personality problems that Ted Bundy, OJ Simpson, Patrick Bateman, etc. have: unrealistic grandiosity, justification in exploiting those "beneath her", charismatic but reckless, and most notably: lack of remorse for putting people's lives at risk. Nothig Lightning Dust does indicates that she has a conscience.

 

It's very probable that she'll do something in the future that'll earn her a life sentence without parole at Equestrian Federal Maximum Security Penitentiary. It's amazing that a character like this is even in a show targeted to young girls.
