Sunny Starscout was objectively, definitively, 100% in the wrong when she brought back magic to Equestria.

She did not submit any forms. She did not get any signatures on a petition. She got zero approval from any governing bodies. The majority of ponies were shown to be vehemently opposed to unifying the races. She learned absolutely nothing about why the separation between races happened in the first place, or what could be done to prevent it from happening again. She just blindly, zealously pursued pony reunification without any long-term planning, goals or overarching narratives.

She is a stubborn, mule-headed, arrogant, idiotic, overly-optimistic, head-in-the-clouds idealist who risked jeopardizing all of ponykind just to live out her foalish childhood fantasies. AND SHE IS A BAD PONY!

Prove me wrong. You can't.

Magic leaving Equestria and the pony tribes splitting up was NOT Twilight's fault.
>>
>>43410155
Nothing happened when Sunny united the crystals. The magic only came back when head representatives of the tribes came forward and wanted reunite also
Did you actually watch the film?
>>
>>43410780
Trve. Opaline is so fucking powerfvl that nopony can blame Twilight for her failures.
>>
>>43410313
Impersonating an officer, resisting arrest, fraud, reckless driving and lying to the sheriff!
>>
>>43410852
Yes. Did you not notice that NONE of the "head representatives" of the tribes were ALICORNS? There were absolutely zero REAL Princesses present at the farcical unification event. None of them had any real governmental authority. Phyllis Cloverleaf ran a business. Alphabittle ran a teahouse. Queen Haven was NOT a real queen and did NOT have any power bestowed by a legitimate governing body of Equestria.
>>
>>43410934
Lol, are they supposed to wait for an alicorn to just fall out of the sky?
>>
>>43410954
Unironically yes. They should have waited until a real alicorn came to legitimize the unification, preferably one that represented true harmony and friendship and not a fraud like Opaline Arcana.
>>
>>43411010
Well, Sunny legitimised the unification ex post facto and she became a trve alicorn so it doesn't matter.
>>
>>43410780
where did that stupid phrase come from anyways?
>>
>>43411032
Sunny is NOT a true alicorn. She just has alicorn powers which are temporary and not actually part of her real body. She also does not have any formal training in magic, did not study political philosophy, and has zero experience ruling a kingdom. She is not a princess, she's an earth pony that got lucky due to convenient circumstances. Everything she did was completely reckless and unwarranted, and that's an objective fact.

>She got zero approval from any governing bodies. The majority of ponies were shown to be vehemently opposed to unifying the races.
It's difficult to get approved or supported by something that doesn't exist or has no will of its own. Unicorns had no governing bodies to seek approval from. Maretime Bay was a cleptocratic shithole that shackled minds through corporate brainwashing. I admit, the most democratic solution to Maretime situation would be to get all and any marketing outlawed and normalize lynching fuckers for it, then give ponies two or three decades to sober up and question them again. But there was no violation of consent in Sunny's actions because everything violatable in their souls was already violated by Cloverleaf. Same with the phone-infected pegapanopticon. There go three out of your six concerns.
She was supported by the royals of Pegaponopticon and by the sheriff of Sprouttown. As for the majority of unicorns, we know for a fact that they approved her actions because they didn't lynch her afterwards. There go the other three.
>She learned absolutely nothing about why the separation between races happened in the first place, or what could be done to prevent it from happening again.
True. Had she possessed credible leads and declined to investigate them, I would wholeheartedly agree with your assessment.
>long-term planning, goals
One more thing desireable but unachievable without any leads to follow. May there be circumstances where a leap of faith becomes a viable strategy?
>overarching narratives
I don't know what it means but it sounds like some gay shit.

Luna and Celestia weren't even around for the actual founding of Equestria. Puddinghead, Platinum, and Hurricane unified on their own. Are you implying that Equestria was a farce too?
>>
>>43411059
>Sunny is NOT a true alicorn.
Yes she is. Even Opaline considers her one and she would be the first to look down upon any fake alicorns.
>and has zero experience ruling a kingdom.
So like Celestia before she became ruler or Twilight, or Cadance?
>She is not a princess
Spike calls her one and he has more authority than your ass ever could.
>that got lucky due to convenient circumstances
Like Twilight luckily befriending all five other Elements in the pilot?
>Everything she did was completely reckless
True and that's why she should be grounded for a few days.

It comes from a misreading of the film, a misreading that unfortunately became canon by subsequent material made by writers who only consumed the film passively and internalized a popular headcanon that Twilight turned off magic on purpose some time before the events of G5, and Sunny giving magic back to everyone would be going against Twilight's wishes. The movie itself does not suggest this, but in fact suggests the opposite by showing depictions of ponies using magic in the presence of the crystals.
>>
>>43410780
It literally was. She was a bad ruler.
>>
>>43411121
I mean, even the movie people barely had an idea what the purpose of them was or what happened between G4 and G5. The plan was at first that the races still had magic at first powered by the crystals. That got scrapped and instead the crystals only function when ponies are in harmony (perhaps even when the crystals are separated?). So Twilight's plan seemingly was: If the ponies are in harmony, then all is well, but if the pony races are fighting each other, their magic automatically deactivates and they can't use their magic to kill each other anymore. No magic also seemingly means no voids like shown in MYM Ch1 (or racist thunderstorms like in the comics).

To be fair, Equestria was probably really shitty until Luna and Celestia came along.
