      It’s commonly accepted by most people that don’t watch My Little Pony, that the grown ass men that do watch MLP, and always hyper obsess over it, may be subtly indicating that they are into other children’s things.

        Ah… Huh. Do they know that fans in order to not be adults now whould need to be 5 years old or younger when show started?

        Wouldn’t it be more logical to suggest that idolisation of a children’s pony show is more of a front for a furry? Or is it because the show is created for children, if an adult likes it they’re a pedophile?

        I always assumed MLP fans were closer to furries. The show is about horses, not kids?

            Fair point. Kinda makes me just as moronic doesn’t it?

            If he ever wants to explain his reasoning, I’m happy to hear it. Even if it’s just to get an opposing perspective. FWIW, Ive never seen MLP and couldn’t care less who watches it.

              i’d rather be a furry than a paedophile, but i’d rather be dead than be either

              but that’s not helpful and as you asked reasonably, it’s more gut feeling than reasoning, but since i’m here i’ll try to reason it out. MLP obsessives like your man here, i’m not talking about e.g. parents who watch it with their kids and think it’s ok, keeps 'em quiet, kills the time etc, but people like uis who reply unprompted with pony spam if not seriously disturbed themselves are part of a community full of seriously disturbed people

              take those image links, the images are hosted at derpicdn.net which if you navigate directly to it resolves to derpibooru.org. on the face of it not all that alarming but this will assuage only the most casual observer. if you use the filters link on the header and choose ‘everything’ [1] (not selected by default) and return to the homepage you will see some severely foul shit.

              if you then go to ‘all time top scoring’ [2] you will see what is popular amongst these harmless cartoon enjoyers. the ponies, being designed for children, are childlike in appearance and can be seen displaying their imagined pony genitals, sucking pony dicks and getting fucked. bronies like uis post harmless images like those in the thread above but those images are found amongst several thousands of stills and animations of them which are rather less harmless. visit the links below to verify, or don’t, i’m going away to delete my history and wish i never started to reply to this bullshit in the first place
