Man Fired for Being a Brony - Polidicks

[QUOTE=TaniaTiger;42371880]I just saw you post in another thread about how your friend is about to have a sex change op. I find it a little weird that you're (rightfully) tolerable of transgenders yet you stigmatise and ridicule a person who likes a kids TV show. In fact this whole forums fucked like that sometimes, backing gays and transgenders and whatever else but when it comes to something as trivial as a show about ponies everyone loses their mind, what's the fucking problem? How can anyone even let an aspect of somebody else's life effect them that much? Get a fucking grip, guys. Fuck.[/QUOTE] It's a well-known fact that Facepunch is unreasonably biased towards some things (transgenderism), and against others (MLP). Even when the scope of things are so vastly different, it's a wasted effort to even post frankly. I'm sure I myself will get many lovely boxes for speaking poorly of FP, oh well.

I don't understand the whole brony thing. It's just guys masturbating to cartoon ponies. I think that fucking weird and don't understand for the life of me how it became like some kind of creepy group but just don't push your brony shit on me and we're cool. aight.

I'm just being honest and I feel like most people here aren't.

[QUOTE=EpikEnvy2.0;42371961][IMG]http://puu.sh/4FbYa.png[/IMG] are you guys fucking serious[/QUOTE] Nothing gets facepunch worked up like bronies doing something.

Fuck.[/QUOTE] Well the argument is that being gay or transgender is something you're born with rather than a relatively simple hobby/interest like MLP, but that doesn't justify the ridiculous demonizing of people who like the show or even the people obsessed with it. I don't understand the appeal of MLP myself, but if people enjoy it then that's not harming me or anyone else as far as I'm concerned.

[QUOTE=SgtCr4zyGunz;42371945]You're fired.[/QUOTE] Yup that's me. Not like I talk about it in front of my employer though. They don't care about it and it has no place in a work environment. Nor is this account obviously linked to me as a person. So yeah, there is a difference. [QUOTE=SgtCr4zyGunz;42371952]A Pokefur is saying it's okay to fire someone for being a brony the fucking irony[/QUOTE] Taking this kinda personally huh? Do I know you from somewhere? Or is this a case of "Oh look you belong to another odd fandom so you can't have an opinion!"?

michaeljacksoneatingpopcorn.gif I haven't even got through three pages of this thread and I'm already giggling like a schoolgirl.

Or is this a case of "Oh look you belong to another odd fandom so you can't have an opinion!"?[/quote] no i just think it's extremely ironic that someone who rubs one out to pokemon acts like they're better than someone who rubs one out to ponies. [quote]I stigmatize them because they act self-righteous and think that liking a show for little girls somehow makes them comparable to gay and transgendered individuals.

A while ago I was browsing some thread about some social justice warrior bullshit, and this guy goes off into a massive argument about people blindly hating and generalizing feminism. This same guy was proudly sporting a "Brony kill yourself" avatar. Talk about hypocrisy. I mean, come on. We've all seen the autistic brony videos, the weirdos singing my little pony songs in a mall or whatever. That doesn't mean everyone is like that. A lot of people enjoy some juvinile things. Whether it's nostalgia, or just enjoy some simple, happy stuff. The only reason people hate male my little pony fans is because the show has a 'girly' stigma attached to it, and guys bash the fuck out of it to show all the other guys how 'straight' they are. At the end of the day, maybe it isn't the brony who needs to grow the fuck up.
