   among the most heartbreaking things to see is when someone with a touhou avatar is a coder or some shit, almost always guaranteed to be a troon

     @lich the modern west was simply not ready for touhou, the old west could handle it and embrace it, the modern west got raped by it

     @lina touhou has caused so many people to troon out or become pedophiles.

     @lina I’ve encountered them IRL as well and they’re usually either weirdos or extremely socially inept like the people that go out in public with fumos. It’s just an overall unfortunate thing. There’s a guys at an LGS I used to play with who’d have a panic attack if he couldn’t find his remila fumo.

     @lich thing is, ponyfags used to shove their stupid little girls' show everywhere into anything, you'd just see those losers going "brohoof" and "everypony" in places where it wouldn't even be relevant, touhoufags at most just post touhou, they dont go like "baka baka easy modo ⑨" like ponyfags would with their inside memes

     @lich if you're gonna compare them then you can easily draw conclusions on who is clearly worse off, ponyfags were always on a downhill to becoming furfags, that's like the point of comparing things anyway

     @lina gooning to cartoons is gooning to cartoons, but you definitely can’t say bronies aren’t furries. point I’m getting at is comparing tribes of autism with similar problems. it’s something I’ve seen too many times to not draw patterns from and recognize them.

     @menherahair @lich combatting the stigma requires doing more than just aping how anime does stuff, sure they made a slice of life with cartoon horses, it's still about cartoon horses and the association with little girls, it's not like they made something actually epic featuring said cartoon horses that could elevate it beyond being a show for little girls, but it's just a slice of life like every other show for little girls and as a result it's not combatting anything

     @lina @lich ackshully FiM was meant to be an any-audience show, written specifically to combat the stigma of "little girls show" the cartoon horses have been associated with in the past. unfortunately it just got replaced with a way worse one, but it proved there was no good reason for the former.

     @lina @lich @menherahair if MLP is a show for little girls, then why does every time I see someone with any kind of MLP related stuff (merch/internet avatar/t-shirt), it's always a male millennial fat retard?

     @lina @lich I disagree with just about all of this post
     >combatting the stigma requires doing more than just aping how anime does stuff
     it doesn't do that? western shows around that time started being likened to anime a lot because they finally started loosing the gag-of-the-week formula they've been beholden to for so long (and even now do a meh job at it), and anime was one of few common points of reference. FiM participated in that, but not to combat the stigma - that required merely discarding the fucking insane "girls like pink and rainbows" writing. Brony culture, despite being horrid, is still a testament to FiM success in this endeavor as it's spawned countless neat crossovers utilizing FiMs themes and world, many of great quality on their own (if you're not prejudiced against cartoon horses in the first place...)
     >sure they made a slice of life with cartoon horses, it's still about cartoon horses and the association with little girls
     it's neither a sol, nor about little girls liking horses. again, it's any-audience, and about importance of friendship. the main characters are girls I guess... some are grown women and sometimes deal with grown women problems too, but then other episodes are like "we go to spooky forest to fight and save our asses" which is not sol.
     >it's not like they made something actually epic featuring said cartoon horses that could elevate it beyond being a show for little girls
     bronies believed it did all the way back in 2011, and I maintain this belief. maybe your bar for moving an all-female cast, no lewds, no swearing show above "a show for little girls" is a bit high for gay western media?
     >but it's just a slice of life like every other show for little girls and as a result it's not combatting anything
     aside from FiM not being a sol in my belief, can you name some of the many other sol shows for little girls? If you actually put them side by side I think it's very easy to spot how the writing differs.

     @menherahair @lich association is important, and when you have a show that's associated strictly with little girls and weird 30 year old neckbeards, you naturally aren't gonna want to associate with it, anime has a broader association range, like a lot of brownoids like dragon ballz, edgy teen girls like stuff like elfen lied and the likes, of course there's weird neckbeards too but they congregate around lolishit like monogotari, so they're not even that noticeable unless said lolishit gets too popular

     @lina @lich feels funny to have this conversation in 2024. if there's one thing people could get from the brony accident it's that maybe the show was not crappy and for little girls but oh well

     @lich @menherahair neptunia went around me as far as i know, sure one friend played it, and a few people i talked to liked it, but it never was anything i cared about, i think its cuz i never had game consoles growing up because i had a pc instead, cuz computers rock more than consoles
