If you don’t take into account the comment made in jest, I guess not.
But you would have to consider the messages in replication, because this can be taken as a breach of rule #0. And of curse, this pone is so cute.
Regardless, lets not be off topic anymore. What do yall think this pony will be? Shes the front cover on the like 3rd comic after the discord arc ends. Maybe new villian? i could see her being corrupted by magic or something
So I guess the lesson here is either:
“Be mindful of what you say, because you never know what might happen” or
“Don’t let yourself get too worked up”?

Nothing extremely. Just in general, comparisons of dreadlocks to mops / worms has been used as discrimination tactics against black hair styles and texture in school and work places for decades, which while yes obv isn’t the intended meaning behind the comparison, it still has that baggage and as a Fandom with an… unsavory history when it comes to this kinda thing, it’s really best not to trudge those comparisons back up.
(Also I do wanna apologize for my dumbassery earlier in the thread, I can get a bit single mindedly frustrated, my bad)
ignoring all the racist comments everyone’s said and how butthurt they get about being told they’re racist, i’d like to point out that, and ik they already confirmed it was vitiligo but i must also add that vitiligo is not just a human thing animals can have it as well! but on horses specifically ive only seen it as small white splotches or dots. ive seen vitiligo cats that look like marble and others that look more like the pattern this cutie has! so yeah. i think her design borrows more from People with vitiligo more than animals, or even the coat patterns of pinto ponies

I’ve met someone just as easily offended about a fictional character as you. I made a joke meant as poking fun and not being outright mean to that guy himself and he block me anyway. Need I add, I do follow him because he makes awesome content and I’ve been his follower for 9 years. Like has he just grown antsy over the years?
