Yeah... it's not that I have a beef with bronies existing, or what they do in their free time. I'm a huge fan of Rule 34 in a lot of fandoms. What I have a problem with is the super-aggressive contingent of the MLP fandom who act like total jerks and try to drive other people out of the fandom for not clopping/make other people feel unwelcome in the fandom - like, that's not fair, or cool. Fandoms should be inclusive of everyone, whether they Rule 34 or not - and everyone should treat each other with a basic level of respect.

To be fair, the bad bronies probably only make up a small (but very vocal) percentage of the overall MLP fandom but as I said, it's like some weird aggressive group of heterosexual males who actively go out of their way to call people f*gs if they don't fap to ponies, who doxx and malware attack others, who harass and send death and rape threats to people who don't Rule 34 MLP (including underage members in the fandom)... it's just offputting and makes me not want to get involved with the online fandom at all.

The end result is that the small group of awful people have basically turned online MLP fanspaces into an echo chamber for people who do stuff like the Pony Jar Project.
