This is a manufactured fake greentext. Some kind of CIA psyop to whitewash 2011 4chan as somehow pro LGBTQ or chill with My Little Pony. I mean there's nothing necessarily wrong with that, it's just kind of ridiculous to try and act like this comes from 2011.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 days ago

The real psyop was the conservative takeover of online spaces. I remember the old net. Even unmoderated shitholes like 4chan were significantly more leftist. Deviant communities like furries and especially the bronies were absolutely on 4chan back in the day. Sure, there were lots of generally rude assholes, but most of them were apolitical or tankies.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 3 days ago

So you're saying it is fake, and gay?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

There's actually a /MLP/ board on 4chan. There aren't a lot of fandoms that have their own separate board, but they made that one because people were pony-posting all over the other message boards.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 days ago (2 children)

The opposite, actually. The mlp fandom originated on 4chan I think.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I'm fairly certain I remember reading this in 2011.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Yeah I recall reading this in 2011/2012. It always pops into my head every time I see a conservative whining about a show having a gay character because of da woke.

I am replying to this comment for no other reason than to poke fun at yor profile picture.

The people Love you, my lord.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

Can confirm. I remember my seeing a first "hey, did you guys by any chance happen to see the new episode" post on /b/ back in 2010, quickly followed by it exploding on 4chan and people setting up the first pony tf2 servers, moot creating /pony/ as a containment board, and everyone saying "don't post on /pony/ or you'll get IP banned in two weeks" - because a decade prior, moot had created the /furry/ containment board when furries got big, let it sit for two weeks, then IP banned everyone who had posted to it and deleted it.

Of course, he didn't replicate the action with /pony/, which is still around. And early brony culture was fascinating, because on a site where shock humor ruled and the experience was like digging through a sewer to find gems, suddenly a subculture emerged that was heavily anti-irony, kind, and genuine. Absolutely bizarre to watch.

Worth noting, as others have, that this was pre-gamergate, which was the social movement that took 4chan and turned it from a place that let Nazis post (usually "iRoNiCaLly" under the premise of being part of the ocean of piss that was the shock humor on /b/) and rolled it into a full Nazi bar.

4chan was somewhat progressive before Gamer Gate and Trump

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago

It was full on progressive in social issues. Anonymous was progressive (it still is) socially and politically. 4chan shifted with Gamergate and it escalated from there.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 days ago (1 children)

4chan always had an lbgtq community. Somehow.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 days ago

People judge 4chan by /b

It has always had wholesome bits too

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

Idk, anon could just be extremely anti theist. Aggressively atheist and libertarian are also 4chan stereotypes from the time.

[–] [email protected] 218 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Fake and gay for obvious reasons, but also based af.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

it's easy to detect fake stories because of how they are but yes, based.

Fluttershy and Applejack can't get married because Rainbow Dash loves Applejack.

only 435?

I'm disappointed with you, internet

Fluttershy and Applejack can't get married because Fluttershy is a pegasus and Applejack is an Earth pony :P

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

Plus Applejack and Rainbow Dash being married is loosely confirmed in the series finale where they come in together and look at each other.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)

rainbow dash would cheat on applejack the moment she gets a chance with daring doo get the buck out of here

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

She'll be too busy fan-girling to actually make a move.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

That's cheating in my book 😠

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Applejack is completely wrong for Fluttershy. Fluttershy deserves so much better. An earth pony? No. She deserves a goddess!

I do love playing with my Mental Liberation Party toys!

Are we talking about the Enlightened Ones from Lunacid?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 days ago

I had to look that up. So yes, we are!

[–] [email protected] 40 points 4 days ago (2 children)

There are also about 450,000 other gods to choose from, and about 5 are the same monotheistic source of evil that humans have used as a scapegoat to kill each other over. Western modernist Christianity is literally the English cuisine of religions.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 days ago

If you look at the Torah (or old testament) it explicitly says there are tons of other gods, Jews and Christians just choose to only serve one.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

Wow that's an exceptionally savage comment. Fantastic stuff L_L!

Multilayer Perceptron toys?

I like their idea.
