My Little Brony II: The Cloppening

[Blacklight]

Bit of a necro bringing this back up, but our favorite wokescold, Wootmaster has been currently having a meltdown over a bunch of anons on 4chan getting plushies made. He's been trying to get the last few pony conventions to ban/confiscate(a.k.a steal) the plushies of anyone who brings them to the conventions.

I didn't know zebras could reeeeeeeeeee

I genuinely doubt many of those people who are gonna buy those plushes are the type to go to conventions.

Woot needs to become a breadtuber already, he exists at this point just to ree at midly edgy shit in a dead empty fanddom. It will be 2033 and woot will still be tard raging about those vile right wing bronies.

 

[Turd Cow]

Wootmaster needs to find a currently relevant fandom to shit on like the fire emblem fandom, there's plenty of shit 4channers to cry about there. Or the minions fandom, where he can discuss the serious topic of yellow retard anatomy to a bunch if five year olds. Bronies are fucking dead and have been dead for a little over a decade at this point. The last relevant thing to come out of this franchise was the G5 movie and it didn't even make a peep compare to the last movie five years ago now.

I'm amazed no one here has caught on to the fact Literally Woot has a separate NSFW account that has vids of him jerking off, even I didn't know it until someone bothered to look at his linktree a week or two ago.

Probably jerking off to Aryanne.

Literal Who is not a breadtuber or communist, he is a machiavellian actor. Sources familiar with his thinking told me, that all he wants is fame, attention and power, and he will say whatever he needs to get it. That's one of the reasons he stopped being a "based black 4channer", as soon as he realized that the anonymity of 4chan was holding him back and the audience is severely limited.
Now he is using the fandom as an opportunity to fashion himself undeservedly into some kind of extremism expert with insider knowledge. The smaller, quieter horsefucker fandom is great for him, because it enables him to lie and misframe it as much as he wants towards his audience of largely outsider furries and for that he is getting attention and followers and updoots.

He is basically running a bizarro Kiwifarms: on Twitter, exclusively for furries and for personal gain only.

Bronies are fucking dead and have been dead for a little over a decade at this point.

It's true that the Fandom is way smaller than it used to be. The peak was in 2015, and in terms of numbers it has only shrunk since then.
The Brony situation reminds me a lot of the situation of the Gaul's in the Asterix comics. The remaining fandom is a little village refusing to kneel to the invading romans furries and fighting to stay independent and true to their roots, to keep their culture alive.
So much infrastructure was built specifically by the horsefuckers, they got their own fanfiction site, their own imageboorus, their own pastebin alternative, their own youtube alternative, their own strawpoll alternative, their own image hosting service, their own AI Text-To-Speech service that is being run by a horsefucker at MIT, which they are using to produce their own episodes now.

That resourcefulness and genuine devotion is what always set the horsefuckers apart from other show-based fandoms, and it's this devotion that kept the fandom alive for so long. Maybe it should die, maybe the ride is over but nobody wants to admit it, but as of now the fandom is very much alive.

The fandom is severely reduced in size, but alive. (Checking on the mlp side of twitter and you'll see fanart getting 5k-10k likes). I'd blame it on the fact we had other fandoms that started overshadowing bronies like Five Nights at Freddy's and Undertale, but it was Steven Universe that wound up stealing the spotlight with the amount of autism and drama that fandom developed (probably didn't help much as well a lot of SU fans were also bronies).

Now bronies are far smaller in size and far less relevant. No more aggressive pony missionary work to get others to join the herd. Dare I say it, most the remaining bronies have matured and stay in their own corners of the internet.

It doesn't help that many, perhaps most of them, even, really seem to hate the new reboot or whatever. Can't imagine any of them are thrilled to recruit people when all there is atm is some netflix production.

The brony missionaries died off longer than that tbh. Even then, the fandom isn't going to see a resurgence or a renaissance of new members as some bronies OD'ing on hopium believe.

 

[awoo]

there are furries from the 90s still going on. and probably obscure fandoms for obscure japanese games. if they can survive that long then this fandom will persist forever

 

[Whatevermancer]

90s

More like 80s.

I doubt the fanfiction will get better though.

Like most 3D animation the models look creepy and uncanny valley. Short story short, bronies don't want to fuck them.

They would've done a better job winning bronies over again by making them those stupid Gmod/SFM pony models you saw everywhere during the peak of the fandom.

Fun observations brought to you by that stock thing in macOS and me finding comedy in corporate fuckups:

• The price for shares of HAS peaked right around the time that new barneydog shit began
• Nasdaq analysts were already calling for months before and after that anything near $120 was completely fucking retarded with how their actual performance is
• Previously Hasbro had a CWC moment and panic stuffed the shelves at the start of the pandemic which botched the launch of barneydogs immensely via pushing them out without the film they were made for on top of causing a lot of dust collection on toy shelves for Hasbro merch overall that only got glossed over because of normalfag isolation induced high sales volumes for board games and Magic the 2000 Varieties of Limited Edition Sets No One Buys
• That new film was number one on Netflix kids metrics for all of a day and a half before it dropped like a rock and was completely forgotten the following week in every category overall when Squid Game was released
• Toys from the new series regularly appear in Walmart and Target clearance sections alongside a lot of other overproduced Hasbro plastic which is the business world's way of communicating "this is so shit we aren't even packing them back up for secondhand/regional outlets"
• Brian Goldner died and the reins were handed over to the guy that caused Magic to emulate the housing market bubble and has a name where you can make an infinite configuration of dong jokes
• There's more effort to advertise and sell the new series in random asian countries than anywhere in the US or Europe, so if the generic copium blinded spast wants a barneydog kids meal toy that badly they need to find a KFC in Indonesia
• Following the above, China has basically all but flat out given a "fuck you" to the new series to the point they are doing things like gas station store reskins, carnival rides and even stage shows based off of G4 instead
• HAS stonks now struggle to even hold on to the 80s range no matter all the cringe inducing memes about supercharging blueprints, we're talking performance so bad they got a bump to 85 due to a financial report only for it to drop to 78 the following monday

All of this has just given me something easy to point at to prove to someone that if corporations are people then Hasbro is a mobility scooter boomer. How do you get so much unprecedented growth and then go back to "lol let's do the same shit we were doing in 2003".

If we’re talking about corporate fuck ups, the IDW run of the comics is a whole different can of worms to open. Among them was an artist (Jay Fosgitt) that was so shit that a fandom artist did a rework of a page and would eventually be hired to draw entire issues while Fosgitt got silently pushed aside.

Just googled that guy's name and I am not surprised in the least by the results I got.

Said fan artist got hired by IDW, was shoved onto a series of shit comics just for the pay since his dad has had major ailments for years, got cucked out of making a comic about his preferred kodachrome equine and was put on drawing a comic based on that Bratz knockoff, and in the end was left to draw Sonic because the only option besides that is drawing comics for the new era which will probably have sales just as low as the G4 comics were at the end. Seriously, I dunno what the fuck Pencils was thinking going with IDW when everyone was telling him to read the giant neon warning signs saying to do the exact opposite.
