Friendly reminder Glimglam literally did nothing wrong.
Also, post Starlights.
probably
Starlight is best wife
Who else but Glimmy Glim?
>>26849023
Of course. Why else would there be no future shown where she takes over Equestria and drives it to ruin?She was never a villain.
> Why yes i respect commie pony
>>26849023
Starlight is Nyx's mother
I think the thing that makes her the best "villain" is that she actually had depth. She wasn't just "muh Equestria." She had a legitimate political system that took years to develop. All she wanted was for a community without discrimination.
>>26850024
Gotta spread that cancer into every thread, don't you?
>>26850024
And Nyx is Sunset's mother, because she's at the bottom of the chain in every way.
>>26850028
well she was though I still love power hungry/invader type villians except Sombra and eqg villians
>>26850028
As an actual commie that wants an actual community without discrimination, that's some bullshit. Glimmer's politics are incoherent nonsense, flat out.
>>26850029
Of course!
>>26850145
How so? Her town was perfectly equal.
idunno she did try to destroy the timeline, and we all live in that, but i guess we'd all be destroyed equally in that respect
>>26850538
Yeah, but that's obviously not true. She not only gave herself political and social authority over others, but she didn't even go through with doing the basic requirements that all other ponies had to in order to be part of the community.
It's hypocritical to the extreme and, unlike the Stalinist ideas that 1984/Animal Farm critiqued (and that the writer's sloppily copied from Orwell), there isn't even an internal justification within the politics that explains why that could be acceptable.
>>26850674
What do you mean? She specifically said that she needed her cutie mark to use the magic needed in order for the Staff of Sameness to function. She actually pretended that she had no real power so that she could blend in and be equal with everypony else, even when she was superior pone.
>>26850706
Yeah, and I call bullshit on both counts.
First, the Staff. Due to the crew's shitty, inconsistent world building, we have no idea if she actually needs her cutie mark to make it function. If she does, fine, whatever.
Second, she definitely has more power than the others. She's the one that leads the march, she's the one whose voice is used to brainwash newcomers, and she's the one who convinced everyone to try it out in the first place. You'd have to be willfully blind to not see that she is in a privileged position within the community.
This isn't even going into the actual ethics of forcing everyone to act exactly the same, going out of your way to coerce and destroy the personality of everyone you can, and all of it just to satisfy a selfish desire for control.
It's shit.
She's a Marxist, so yeah she did do a lot wrong. She should be put down like all broken horses
>>26850756
Yes, she was the leader, but it was necessary for the community to function. She wasn't doing it for control. It's just life: when you want to live somewhere, you have to follow their laws. If not, you can leave. Her intentions were pure.
>>26850706
>>26850756
Niggas, she flat out stated it was a plain old stick she found. Do you two even watch the show?
>>26850852
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Don't try to act high and mighty when you're ready to default to "muh necessary evils" at the drop of a hat.
>>26850992
To be fair, I haven't watched it since it aired.
>>26850992
But she told them it was magic so she could be equal like them.

She's a cult leader.

Wow its like im really living in Equestria right now
>>26853719
That's a real iffy one.
If we're going by multiple timeline rules, then all she really did in the long run was waste Twilight's day.
>>26853719
She clearly stated how she didn't believe that Twilight's cutie mark would destroy the world. Once she realized what she was doing, she stopped.
>>26854235
It's never a wasted day when you make a friend!
>>26854291

>>26854361
She destroyed the world multiple times, brolio.
Sure it got reversed, but that's not really an adequate legal defense.
>>26849023
She dindu nuffin
she a guud gurl
All she deed wuz make time loopy
She misses her deick

2edgy4me
Commie.
>>26854377
they are alternate realities, so in perspective she never destroyed anything, but at the same time, destroyed all things, its a paradox m8
>>26854387
Starlight missing Sunburst isn't canon.
>>26854388
>people I don't understand are just being edgy

Name one part if your post that wasn't meant to be edgy.
>>26849197
Starlight Glimmer did nothing wrong.
>>26849023
>Glimglam literally did nothing wrong.
>literally
Kidnapping, false imprisonment, psychological torture, and that's coming from someone who hasn't even watched the episode.
>>26854455
She's just protecting the peace, Senpai.At least she doesn't turn you into stone as punishment.
>>26854455
She said in the episode, they can leave anytime they want. Also, what false imprisonment? If the mane 6 wanted to stay in Our Town, they needed to follow their laws. It happens in every society in the world.
>>26854484
Burn.
>>26854455
Everyone was perfectly happy until the Mane Six ruined everything that she built.
>>26849023
I hope she keeps that socialist leaning in Season 6. Fucking capitalist ponies...
>>26854541
I know. It makes me nervous to see her come back. Hopefully they do with her what they did with Trixie in the EqG movies rather than what they did with Sunshit.
>>26854484
>imprisonment and eventual rehabilitation of a literal bomb throwing anarchist by the rightful government is the same as kidnapping and brainwashing
Fucking Floridians
>>26854421
Well, that wasn't my post and I'm not a Marxist, but there's nothing edgy about identifying with the largest political ideology in history, or about acknowledging the fact that Starlight ran her town like a cult.
>>26854572
How can a single sentence be so incorrect? Discord is not an anarchist, has never literally thrown a bomb, and there is absolutely nothing "rightful" about the Equestrian state.
>>26854489
I'm pretty sure that the 6 didn't want to be forced into that house. Didn't some of them try to escape?
>>26854484
>implying I was >implying that I think Sunbutt isn't a stupid cunt
>>26854593
What then, is your definition of a cult?
>>26854606
The mane 6 had no plans of leaving Our Town, though.
>>26854593
Of course Discord has never thrown a bomb. He can make explosions instantly by snapping his fingers.
The rightful government is the one the citizens support. Stay mad.
>>26854621
That does not give commie-horse the right to imprison them, or use torture methods.
>>26854653
It literally does. They were trying (and eventually succeeded) to collapse their system.
>>26854644
Our Town supported Starlight Glimmer. Doesn't that make her the rightful leader of that area? The place wasn't even on the fucking map.
The Mane Six were clearly going beyond their jurisdiction in "policing" the place.
>>26854653
They were outsider anarchists messing with the socio-political system of the region. That was legitimate self-defense!
>>26854681
>AHM SEE-CEEDING FROM THE YEW-NIGHTED STATES!
>Y'AINT GUT AUTHORITY HERE, FBI!!
Um, no.
>>26854612
Inherently hypocritical, extremely hierarchical, a false leader promising spiritual utopia, and a cult of personality around that leader that lures people into relocating to an isolated location that hides whatever dirty shit is going on from the rest of the world.
>>26854644
A rightful government is one that is embraced by the people without the interference of a coercive force.
Guess what? A country with a ruler that has lived for at least a thousand years, relying mostly on the physical might of that one ruler to sustain itself, will never be able to self-determine it's governance as long as that ruler is in a position of authority.
Do you honestly believe that, if there was to be some kind of revolutionary populist movement within Equestria, Celestia would just respect the wishes of the people and step down? Because that's really fucking dumb.
>>26854715
That's the thing - that town wasn't on their map.
It was an undiscovered, independent area that they effectively annexed to their region. The Mane Six interfered with the local beliefs and system and instigated a rebellion that drove Starlight out of town.
>>26854734
External forces affect uprisings, they're invasions. The common pony wants the government they have. If they didn't, there's no way Celestia could stand against the might of her entire country against her.
>>26854769
Aren't, not affect. Fuck autocorrect.
>>26854767
>I go to a place in fucking Kansas that has nothing there and build a town
>not on any maps! I'm autonomous!
You're dumb. So, so dumb.
>>26854715
>>26854769
Let's not forget that the map didn't send them there to abolish a political system. It sent them there to help fix a friendship problem, and who had the real friendship problem the whole time? Starlight Glimmer.
>>26854794
What makes you think Celestia or any other figurehead had any jurisdiction over the area? Frickin Braeburn was more in the wrong than Starlight Glimmer.
>>26854769
Note - the common pony never voted Celestia into office. They just don't know any better.
>>26854815
It was not stated at any point that the town was outside of Equestria.
>>26854824
>democracy is the only rightful form of government
Your cultural bias is showing. Historically the most effective and benevolent form of government, statistically, is monarchy.
>>26854825
But that doesn't answer my question. How did we know that anyone had any specific jurisdiction over that land? Scouting and settling is something that's been done up until very recently.
>>26854855
The map shows Equestria. Not the whole world, or even the continent. Equestria.
>>26854868
It showed the Griffon Kingdom (or whatever form of politics they have).
>>26854902
They're part of Equestria. This was explained.
>>26854769
So how long until you just start quoting Mein Kampf verbatim? Or are you more of a Leviathan kinda scum?
>>26854854
That's really close to the exact opposite of truth.
>>26854910
But how are we sure that Celestia, who isn't even their species, has dominion over them?
Starlight Glimmer did only one thing wrong -that is to start political debates among the audience outside the young demographic.
Can't we all just agree that she is a cute addition to the franchise?
>>26854962
Their city sent a delegation to the Equestria Games.
>>26854967
Moondancer is cute. Treehugger is cute.
Glimglam is a fucking goddess.
>>26854934
Try Thomas Jefferson. And try thinking.
>>26854976
Russia sends athletes to the Olympics. I think you missed a point here...
>>26849023
What episode was this shot from?
>>26855012
The Olympics is international. The Equestria Games is Equestrian
>>26854976
How about this?
In the early times of the America, there was a religious cult that moved West to what is now called Utah. They had their own government and policies as long as they followed Federal law. What makes it so hard to imagine Starlight not breaking any rules here?
>>26855032
Fuck off Mormon
>>26855054
I said it was a cult. You see my point, though, don't you?

Do you have any evidence that shows she still cares about Sunburst? Inb4 "muh flashback."
