Unfortunately, that is apparently "news" to some people as some don't realize that whenever they put down this fandom, (just 'cause they had a bad experience with one or two bronies) or others. Same for those that romanticize this fandom into a "utopia," when it isn't.
I agree about the Sonic thing. It's ok to not like things, but unfortunately some tend to be a jerk about it. A guy here used to give me crap for being a "Sanik fan" and for defending good or tolerable Sonic-related pics. A guy whom claimed "all Sonic fanart was bad" challenged me to show him good ones. I did, but no matter what I showed him he still said they were bad no matter what, so I just called him out on that, and gave up. (And some were probably better then the Pony pics in his favorites.)
Biased people like that ironically act no better then brony/pony-haters they demand more respect from. Plus demonizing other fanbases doesn't make our's look better. (In fact, it upsets bronies who like other things too.)
Now comes super-sized!
