Yeah, most fics that attempt to portray mature subject matter usually just end up as grimderp. Becides stuff that’s supposed to be tragic and make you feel sad, I can’t think of a single instance off of the top of my head in which a fic doesn’t drop the ball really hard on that front.

Using MLP for clout is still a good thing. It helps maximize the amount of pony hitting people's eyeballs, and some of them will go on to watch the show.

Not if they're some creep who only cares about the horsefame and not pony. See a lot of fandom musicians who get a ton of simps.

This.

While Earth is indeed a genuine hellscape for all those blessed with a functioning consciousness, it it only nearly irredeemable. I've know some of the worst of the worst, yet still have overwhelming faith and hope in humanity. Because we're God's creation, and can rise above our sin. So I can vibe with this plot line, but making Anon a disheartened pessimist is rather annoying.
>>
>>39734596
Doubt it. People like that are glorified furries and their fans will love the artist, no more.
Hence the term, "fan of the fandom."
>>
>>39736738
"So-and-so made a pony song/joke/artwork so I thought, 'How bad can it be?'" is a pretty common origin story for getting into the fandom
The fact that they love the artist is why they give it a shot at all

There were bronies who always stated that they’ll stick around beyond the show finiehing. Most left before the show was over and some after. Not all brony creators left but it’s clear alot weren’t going to stick.

The humanized versions have ears on their backs, or they have wings for ears?

Humanized versions that make their ears a pair of wings. Like two wings on the side if the head. Looks bad.

It's not exactly wrong, now is it?
>>
>>39742077
You tell me, gross brony.
>>
>>39734052
Imo, joking about bronies being gross isn't exactly wrong, because they absolutely are. It's that other thing that makes it infuriating, the "nothing about the show" part. It's the most "outsider looking in" type of shit and is unbelievably lazy. They typically amount to ad-libed "nerd" parodies but with Star Trek or anime replaced with My Little Pony.

It can be done right though. Compare Brütaloo's Brony Documentary parody to that My Little Brony Toy Commercial by Collegehumor. The former, while not specifically about the show, lampoons specific bullshit that bronies were known for spewing in the fandom itself, the other is just "what if girls toy but NECKBEARDS, GET IT? BRONIES ARE WEIRD NERDS AND THEY WRITE POOOOORN!"
>>
Ponyspeak using terms that bronies made up.

Like saying "plot" as a synonym for pony ass (just say "flank" or "rump", why can't you be attracted to horses normally).

Or saying "buck" instead of "fuck". I can't think of anything more corny than seeing a brony say "Buck you", trying to seem hard.
>>
>>39741159
Yeah it's not common, but it's awfully retarded.
>>39741176
No, they get fake ass cones slapped onto their forehead so you can know that these human characters are actually unicorns that are humanized unicorns you already knew were unicorns.

MLP strives on its simplicity. Most well-liked villains in fiction don't have 30 pages of sob story for audiences to digest.
Steven Universe fails at doing just that.
>>
>>39744197
>It's also a mess behind the scenes.
Creative control means nothing when your own artists and storyboarders can pull it away from you rather than just take orders and make suggestions. A result of which is the story is fragmented by up to 12 standalone episodes at a time.
>King example of an overdone garbage trope of everyone is redeemable.
This is seen with the Jack Horner and Steven Universe memes.

It's also woke trash propaganda which grooms children by showing provocative sexual imagery between two females.

I know you mean sexual innuendoes but MLP had lesbians in it. Especially to show and bolster those rating points for S9.
>>
>>39745421
The lesbian couple is never mentioned in the show at all.
>>
>>39745427
Wasn’t there a newspaper that depicted Bon Bon and Lyra getting married? Doesn’t matter if it was in the show for that terrible Scootaloo episode, as they plastered it before it was even leaked that it ‘introduced’ lesbians into the show.
>>
>>39744197
SU sucks because its always told from his perspective 24/7. Imagine if every MLP episode needed to include Twilight and how she responds to each need and event a character is involved in.

Only if you are on the Internet reading MLP gossip all the time. Saudi Arabian kids don't care.
>>39745438
MLP, unlike Steven Universe, was made as a children entertainment, first and foremost. The show never get too preachy because as society evolves, the preachy bullshit may become obsolete or even downright despised by the future generation. MLP doesn't preach anything beside basic moral like don't be an ass and be a good person, which makes it a timeless classic.
>>
>>39745497
MLP does "preach", but it preaches virtues, instead of an agenda. The whole thing is (well, started out as) a morality play, the main characters are explicitly labeled with virtues.
>>
>>39745533
Funny how one would expect children's shows to be filled with blatant brainwashing and adult ones to speak some actual sense, but in reality it's the other way around.
