There isn’t a single group of people on this earth that I love more than glimmerfriends, they’re the horsefucker equivalent of geniuses who think for themselves, who question and challenge whatever it is the media tells them.
The writers gave them their most brilliant, shining example of an inspiring heroine dipped in glitter-covered gold, and not only did they love it, they even ask for more.
They see Glimmer’s supportive and wonderful tendencies as a “quirk” that makes her more “cute,” showcasing that they’ve probably had wonderful relationships in their entire lives, or if they haven’t, they’ll definitely find a healthy and loving one someday.
Not only that, they even have the grace to admit they’re thriving and that the admiration for their waifu is well-deserved just because everyone else can see through the writer’s masterful attempt at a twilight archetype to uplift the show and the rest of the mane 6, except much better and with a “heartwarming” backstory. God, glimmerfriends are amazing.

Glimmy is neither of those. She is a utilitarian which is a major trait expressed in much of her actions that sometimes gets her in trouble in silly ways. She's a kind hearted pony that just wants to make the world a better place for everyone.

Feels like it got resolved on five minutes when she fucked up an entire town and maybe those timelines (can't tell if she provoked that or she just went with Twilight to those probabilities, science fiction is hard). I don't totally hated her because I really like how awkward she was and partnered with socially inept ponies who any other character would ignore or get bored.

Those 5 minutes are worth a novel on its own, it's a big rabbit hole of characterization once you start thinking about what it all means. I do get how it can feel like it was rushed since the show doesn't give you enough time to really absorb the information until the episode is over, but I personally love it, it felt like the final piece of the puzzle that contextualizes everything we've seen from Glim Glam up to that point.

I'm what would be considered far right and I like her. What do you mean? She's great in all the aspects once you teach her to get over her childish belief that the world owes you fairness - the idea that the "fight" eventually 'ends' and results in a utopia. Once she's past that, she's not really a commie and her core beliefs and identity transition well to actually productive schools of thought.

Cutie marks are a metric of excellence. Communism crushes economic and social excellence in a misguided attempt at enforcing equity.

>>
>>41661598
I can't know, which is the point. It's a question.

It is a slight alteration on your statement because your own perspective is what is needed, not mine. I don't know by what standard you're arguing that communism is uninvolved, and so any counterargument I could offer would be pointless and I don't even know if we disagree. It is you who determines if flim and flam matter or not, and you seem to think they do, one way or the other.

So again, it was a question I wanted an answer too.

>>41661655
Alright, I can work with that.

I don't know what the "communism meme" is other than communism half-existing in some of the episodes.
If that was the standard you were using, then you should know what the "capitalism meme" is because it would just be capitalism-things existing in some of the episodes.

Instead, you ask me for some specific "capitalism meme" rather than understanding it as a general concept.
So, by these standards, you SHOULD have a very specific "communism meme" in mind instead of just communism existing in an episode.

So, finally, by your standards, I ask you what the "communism meme" is, and you should be able to answer, unless you're being difficult.

And in answer to your question, I never defined "capitalism meme" because it isn't my definitions that matter. I'm asking about you, what it means to you, not to me.

That's the thing, Starlight didn't do any communist things. Which is why calling her a commie makes no sense.
>>
>>41661709
She lead a literal commune.

>a group of people living together and sharing possessions and responsibilities
Housing assigned, food assigned, jobs assigned, cutiemarks pooled, resources distributed centrally.

Also note that your argument now has nothing to do with the lack of connection between marks, friendship, and communism.
>>
>>41661641
China is communist in name and culture only. Its economy and industry are entirely privatized.
>>
>>41661719
>She lead a literal commune.
Not enough information to say for sure, but either way a commune is not communism.

>food assigned, jobs assigned, resources distributed centrally.
Need evidence for these claims.

>a group of people living together and sharing possessions and responsibilities
Sounds like a family home. Are all households communists?

Communism's purpose isn't to remove cutie marks and make lasting friendships.

How incredibly specific and obscure

>>41661738
We're talking about the meme, where the meme is people's tendency to call starlight a communist. It doesn't matter if any of that is proven or shown or true. It only matters what impressions audience members might get.

If your counterargument is "but she isn't literally canonically a communist dictator", then that's why you don't get it, because that doesn't matter even a little. It only matters if she's emotionally adjacent to being a communist enough for the audience to find engagement in the comparison. You proving that she literally is not a communist wouldn't make people wrong for calling her a communist.

As such, the following does not matter.

>Housing assigned
Double Diamond: We have a welcome ceremony for new friends! The whole village joins together to build you your own cottage—

>food assigned
Call me inaccurate if you must, but exactly 1 food item existed on the menu at the local food shop and no bits exchanged hooves. No other food is seen.

It's also an issue of the core philosophy they use. Every pony has he same 2 hairstyles. The baker claims not to make muffins any better than anyone else. Things must be the same because differences cause disagreements and strife. Which is worse, a shitty muffin or a shitty pancake? We can't decide, but they are different, and different people would have different opinions about which is better.

>jobs assigned
This one may be incorrect, actually. If there's no cutiemark, then there should also be no preference for a particular kind of work. Finding the activity which helps define your place in society and the world is a large portion of what causes a cutiemark to exist. It would be pretty weird for villagers to still act on that basic job-seeking instinct which often causes people to move away from friends to find work.

However, the town is small enough, currently, that that isn't a problem.
Again however, starlight said
Starlight Glimmer: Well, this will certainly provide a boost to our little community. When the rest of Equestria sees that a princess gave up her cutie mark to join us, they'll finally understand what we're trying to accomplish.
Which hints strongly that her ideology is meant to spread to the rest of equestria and solve this problem for everybody.

The baker-marked mare also works as a baker, which would mean either she was assigned as a baker or she got to choose, and willingly chose the job which puts her at risk of being unequal and makes her look like she's lusting for her mark back. Either option works

Anyway, it's a philosophy and system which encourages people not to do their best and puts people in jobs they have no skill for and the comparison is enough

>resources distributed centrally.
How exactly did we think we were going to build that house?
It seems like resource distribution is often through moneyless storefronts, however, on rewatch. That still makes it a gift directly from the common pot.
>>
>>41661818
There is a single fashionable object which we only see one pony using and it has a whole storefront. Rarity doesn't like it.
Just a note that boosts the "uniform" point I brought up with their hair. Not really important.
>>
>>41661818
>she is not a communist but people calling her a commie are still not wrong
I see.

>no bits exchanged hooves.
Nothing out of the ordinary, bits are rarely exchanged in general. You're just saying Equestria is a communist country.

>It's also an issue of the core philosophy they use.
Uniforms and dress codes is communism now too? So what, the lack of a dress code is capitalism? Why do some schools and businesses enforce dress codes, are they promoting communism?

>The baker claims not to make muffins any better than anyone else.
An unambitious or noncompetitive person means it is communism? That type of person is not unique to any system.

You've yet to prove where food is assigned. A single bakery having a limited selection only shows that cutie marks help bring variety.

>Finding the activity which helps define your place in society and the world is a large portion of what causes a cutiemark to exist.
>It would be pretty weird for villagers to still act on that basic job-seeking instinct which often causes people to move away from friends to find work.
Losing cutie mark doesn't erase their memories, Sugarbelle knows how to bake already so why not keep baking. And you've been taking the equality shtick way too literally, Sugarbelle is already better than most ponies just by virtue of knowing the steps to baking.

>Which hints strongly that her ideology is meant to spread to the rest of equestria and solve this problem for everybody.
Her ideology does not scale well so that can't be the case, not to mention she'd be stuck performing the cutie mark removal ritual non-stop for dozens of years.

>Either option works
No it doesn't, you're making it up on the same level as "Starlight is taking back the means of production off screen which proves she's communist."

>Anyway, it's a philosophy and system which encourages people not to do their best and puts people in jobs they have no skill for and the comparison is enough
This vague statement can also be true for capitalism.

>How exactly did we think we were going to build that house?
The way ponies build homes. Need more substance than that like what the zoning laws are.
>>
>>41662344
>Her ideology does not scale well so that can't be the case
And when has that ever stopped anyone before?
