huhhh, apparently I shattered someone’s world by being annoyed at the Bronies for letting rape joke bullshit slide. I hold the radical opinion that you should not let your friends, or peers, be gross idiots, and by doing so I have CROSSED THE LINE.

This is Reddit, so a few of them call me a feminist in a pejorative sense. Nobody calls them on it.

Am I being too harsh with these kids when I say they should be harsher with their peers? Are they just afraid they’ll end up alone if they challenge anything?

In any case, this is basically the saddest day in history

You speak in a manner where you’re clearly coming across as making sweeping generalizations and then you whine about people reacting poorly to it. Then when someone who looks up to you is disappointed in your doing so, you mock him.

I’m still trying to see where you aren’t being a total fucking asshole?

Why is it okay for women such as myself to like things targeted toward a male demographic of varying age groups, but not for men? And that’s putting aside the fact that the show itself is a ‘family’ demographic, meaning it was intended for more than one age group and gender to be able to enjoy it, even if the toy line is marketed for young girls. Double standard much?

All that doesn’t exactly make you a nice guy either, even if you’re not making rape jokes. In fact I really don’t think any kind of joke automatically makes someone a horrible person. Seriously how shallow are you if you think it does?

Sorry if the world isn’t PC enough for you BS misandrist tastes. I’m also sorry you can’t take responsibility for what you say and how you say it like an adult. Maybe you should pull on your big boy pants and properly deal with people not kissing your ass. You act like you can be a dick and not expect backlash. That isn’t how it works. Not even if you’re apparently well known for whatever the fuck you’re semi-well known for.

Because honestly, for someone who’s saying not to let your friends/other people be dipshits, you sure are being one.
