In Neighsays defense, all of those nonpony students were creatures that only became allies recently, like months prior. Before that, they were either unknown or could be considered hostile. The changelings had tried to take over the country twice in a year alone. Dragons were seen as dangerous until Ember took over. Yaks and Hippogriffs had been isolated from Equestria for god knows how long. Griffins couldn’t even get along with each other let alone other races.
 
So despite everything, it makes perfect sense for him to be this way. It’s not right but it makes sense.

His views would have held more weight had the non-pony students not been from races or ethnicities that were allies of Equestria. Had the students been Storm King style Yetis, Centaurs, Bugbears and just about any chaos deity other than Discord, I think he would have been slightly more justified.

“Other races” aren’t monoliths.
 
This show has done a great job of having both good and evil characters who are ponies, as well as other creatures. What it demonstrates is that a pony like Cozy Glow or King Sombra are just as capable of being evil as a monster like Tirek or Chrysalis.
 
Similarly, ponies like the Mane 6 are just as capable of being good as other creatures like Spike, Zecora, Discord after his reformation, Thorax, the Student 6, etc.
 
And for all Neighsay’s talk of Equestria being “for ponies,” the land seems to also be the native home of other non-pony equines like donkeys and mules as well. Bovines like cows are also treated as ordinary Equestrian citizens rather than presumed to be foreigners from other lands, so there’s already some degree of “racial integration” in Equestrian society even before we factor in the creatures from other lands like griffons, changelings, etc.
 
The idea that other races in their entirety are threats is where Neighsay went wrong. He had generalized distrust of non-ponies, rather than a realistic appraisal of threats from the outside (or inside).

Reading ability has no bearing on treating those who are different with the same dignity and respect which we would want to be given unto us.

Yes he was. Him and Cozy were competing as villains until she outmaneuvered him and he came to see the error of his ways.

Something that always leaves me surprised is that no one noticed that the reasoning behind the school can be seen as racist, itself. The whole idea is that only ponies really ‘get’ friendship, therefor they are best suited to enlighten the ignorant non-ponies.

How was he “racist”? Celestia wrote the law he followed.  
The non-ponies actually proved him and the book Celestia wrote right.
