Greeting from a completely different sphere of life!  I am here on a simple mission, and that is to assess the right wing's true opinion of MLP and its fanbase.  I'm curious because it was called to my attention that last year we were blasted on Fox News.  So now I ask you, how do you feel about it, and is there anything you'd like to know?

Right out of the gate I see.  I have a question for you, how is being a fan of a cartoon different from say, a football fan?  Or say, I dunno, someone who really likes 24?

I'm sure you had a real point to make...

I'm also sorry I missed it.

Maybe if you used actual words and sentences we could help you out.

On edit: what the heck is the MLP?

I would life to refer you to the short sentence in the last post, It pretty much sums up my questions.  To expand, I am surprised at the hate coming out of this side of the political equation and would simply like to know why?

By and large there is a trend of shaming those who are fans of the show.  There are a lot of fans, but there are also a ton of people who seem to take umbrage with the show's popularity. More often than not mentioning your interested in the show draws looks of either incredulity, or laughter followed swiftly by questions about the one's sexuality.  This expands to the digital space as well, there are plenty of people I've talked to who have been harnessed for simply liking a cartoon.  The second thing I came here to explore is if Fox News, a predominately conservative news organization's, slander had any effect on the right wings consensus on the issue.

I've seen every episode from Nightmare Moon to Discord to the present.

I don't consider myself a Brony, but I have friends who are. They are conservative and watch the show with their kids. I babysit sometimes and the kids got me watching.

I still BS'd you for coming across antagonistic when you never needed to. No one here works for FOX. Nor do all conservative share the same tastes/likes and such. You sound like you are trolling.

The show itself is refreshing in that the writing includes the parents as well as the kids. The wholesomeness of the show is not marred by a liberal message. Silly environmental issues are never inserted into it. The theme is pure Americana and the messages are never politically correct. I really cannot see how you align the show with liberalism.

Start over with love and tolerance.

Harnessed for liking a cartoon.   :rofl:  Sounds kinky

Slander seldom affects the right.  We tend to search out the facts in most cases.  You're barking up the wrong tree, Relic.

Hi5 to BEG for posting my favorite pony, Rarity. She is a CAPITALIST pony. She has her own boutique, designs clothing, and works through the night to make the deadline on commissions.
Rarity is an independent business pony and supports herself. No one ever gave her a handout.

Most of the time we see her, she is WORKING.

I'm sorry if I came across as antagonistic.  I didn't mean to accuse anyone i just wanted to see if it swayed anyone. I don't assume Fox is the be all end all, i just chose it as an example because of its large viewer base.

Why push back, its not like I'm in here accusing people.  However I admit I might have come off as a little antagonistic at the start.  I just wanted to gauge peoples general perception of the show and fans of the show.  I'm not trying to make a point or anything, just indulging in some idle curiosity while i fight my way through a dull book.

I think it's a cute show. Sometimes I watch it when my children are watching it. I have never put any thought of the angel you are trying to make though. Frankly, neither should you. If you like something, don't worry about what other people think.

Well, one does eat fried chicken. I know this because when I drove up for his daughters wedding in the Hampton area, I bought a huge box of chicken when we took his boat out fishing on the James River(Hampton Roads is what it's called). We chowed down. ;-)

...then again, we take it offshore in Florida all the time with nothing but honkys. Something about greasy chicken on the open water and after partying the night before.

No, shortbus, it's relevant because if you're a 21 y/o dude, damn, talk about disturbed. Women always have a youthful and inquisitive innocence. If you're a guy, let's just say that when shit hits the fan, you're gonna be below the common rat on the food chain. Most of us here were catching and filleting fish and hunting and gutting deer at your age. You're watching little blue pony cartoons. :lmao:

No, shortbus, it's relevant because if you're a 21 y/o dude, damn, talk about disturbed. Women always have a youthful and inquisitive innocence. If you're a guy, let's just say that when shit hits the fan, you're gonna be below the common rat on the food chain. Most of us here were catching and filleting fish and hunting and gutting deer at your age. You're watching little blue pony cartoons. :lmao:

I'm not a hunter, I'm pretty decent at the shooting range when I have the chance to go.  As for fishing me and my old man spend a fair amount of time kayak fishing in the marshes around my home town during the summer.  I'm pretty bad at it however.  Just because someone didn't mention it don't assume they have never done it.

Hey, my husband was in games and toys for 17 years. I'd say it has paid off. My 23 year old son designs toys (little tikes). You aren't going to win this one, give up now.  :-*

Does your son take them home and play with them? That's apparently the difference. ;-)

I wouldn't say you were blasted by Fox News but Red Eye w/ Greg Gutfeld, the greatest show in the history of Fox, perhaps the history of television, sent Bill Schulz out to some sort My Little Pony convention to learn and make fun of the Bronies. But you know, it was pretty much good natured ribbing.

Greg, himself, has an obsession with unicorns, so chill out. If you want to be a victim head to the Democrat Undergourd. It's a gourd where people hide under and complain about how they are such victims.

This is what I found. Glover at a fox affiliate, from what I gather; Glover is a radio host. He talks about baby man and bronies (grown men who are filing for disibility because they are obsessed with My little pony) in this. I also found out, from this segment, that you can get disability for being obese.

Red eye did a segment on bronies also.

Bill Clinton is an honorary brony

As I said, the Red Eye segments was by and large positive. Also I got a hell of a kick from President Clintion answering those questions.  Might have made my night, thank you sir.

No, I came in here wondering if outside rhetoric had an effect on every day conservatives.

You make a Hell of a lot of assumptions, kid.

I'm in my 40's and still watch Bugs Bunny cartoons every chance I get.  So what?  Do what you like, don't hurt anybody, don't attempt to shove it down anyone's throat, and don't be a thin skinned ninny if they don't like it.

I like those old cartoons, too, and there are even some new ones that I like.  Invader Zim, and Phineus and Ferb are two new ones that I watch.

Meh, can't stand the new ones.  The closest I could come with new cartoons was The Animaniacs. I watch Sponge Bob with the Pretty Princess because she's the only girl out of 5. 

I usually walk away from that cartoon feeling dumber....

Be careful with that word on a thread like this.

Remember that some folks about here have a truly warped sense of humour and that Rule 34 applies.

FWIW - I rate the MLP fans somewhere between hipsters and emos.

The collective IQ of the site fell into DU territory after 13 pages of this. Might as well have been talking about who is the better Starship Captain, Kirk or Picard.

I think they are both great, but I am more partial to Picard. Mostly because was around when TNG was made. And Marina Sirtis was hot. Patrick Stewart is a great Actor, and I used to watch Lamar Burtin on Reading Rainbow.

Totally

In fact the whole crew from TOS would kick the buts of the likes of Troi and Wesley and Riker and either of the two doctors. Warf was kind of cool, though.

What are you, 20? Picard isn't worthy of cleaning the sperm off Kirk's "draws" after hitting a green chick.

Kirk was better for two reasons.
1) he did every alien chick he could find. Serious.
2) if aliens even looked at him funny, he would blow them outa the sky!

Piccard was much more PC and wanted to talk to everything trying to kill him. and that is just so gay.

Except for the Borg, he seemed to have a thing for them...well except for that one young Borg...what was his name Newt or something like that.

Oh, as it turned out he was a stealth bomb, something about individuality or something.
