This is actually shockingly common in cases like this. Those of you who remember the heady days of 2010, may remember back to a time before ponies were a scourge of the internet, and it was still this unknown show, and still written for little girls, with just enough old school, looney tune edge to make parents not want to neck themselves. Kids liked it, parents liked it, autists hadn't fully discovered it yet, and it existed in it's own little corner as an example that, hey, kids have good entertainment these days, good for them. At worst, you had the cartoon-fags putting it on in the background to relive the old days of their youth, and all was well.
Come December 9th, and MsMagazine, AKA TEMU brand Jezebel, publishes an article titled, I shit thee not,
My Little Homophobic, Racist, Smart-Shaming Pony. Put the bleach down, we haven't even discussed what's in it. Now, for those of you who've touched grass, you won't know that this article came out two months after the show premiered. 8 episodes in. At this point, even the show hadn't devolved into full on 'deepest lore' faggotry. It was still just a little girls show that didn't even know it had an adult audience. For those of you who value your sanity, I'll summarize the article. In the opening of the show, it shows the 'queen' figure, a big ass white horse. Mind, white white, as in, the shade these heaven dwellers are. And why weren't there any black horses? Oh wait, there they are! The guards, shown for four frames an episode, were brown furred. CLEARLY, this is a psyop designed by hasbro to teach little girls that black people were meant to serve at the feet of their white overlords. Thankfully, this was before we devolved into full clown world, so this dumb bitch was laughed out of the room, but it just goes to show you. The 'WHY AREN'T THE NON-HUMAN ENTITIES BLACK!?' bullshit is as old as the internet, and it usually is the first horn for the autist faggots. Which makes me fear what the fuck they're going to do with a show that's ALREADY autistically gay.
A quick aside since it's not relevant, the 'smart shaming
racist homophobe' bits are discussing characters having character traits, namely the nerd being forced to go outside and stop being a faggot (the main push of the show, initially), and the sporty character just happening to have a rainbow aesthetic. Remember, this was before we had the full on retardation of the modern 'inclusive pride' flag.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go make a bleach and glass cocktail for knowing all of this.
