  • This weekend, more than 8,000 fans of My Little Pony (aka "Bronies") packed into the Baltimore Convention Center and Vocativ was there to capture the action in all its purple glory. To be honest, it was pretty weird but not in the way you might expect. What started out as an ironic cult following on the boards of 4Chan, has become a completely sincere movement that is helping a lot of young people feel better about themselves. Watch as we journey into the depths of BronyCon to learn the true meaning of "Friendship is Magic".

    I'm a brony, and being a brony is not different than being a fan of any other show. Or anything else. These "Cool" kids do the same thing. When they like a celebrity they dress exactly like them. If you think liking MLP is gay, what do you call a bunch of knuckle heads in a stadium watching some grown men in tights throw a ball down the court for a touchdown. You call it football. When you think about it, it's gay and lame but because it's popular then nobody says anything about it. The fans dress up in their uniform and paint their faces and bodies of their favorite teams yet no one thinks they're gay. Well that's the same thing the MLP fans are doing. I love sports, and I love mlp, and I love Music. Just because I love one thing doesn't mean I don't like everything else. It's just whatever you like you like. It doesn't make you gay. But if you are doing something different than everyone then they automatically judge you. For example, I love tennis and I'm black. Now, what do you think the black community thinks about me liking tennis? They don't like it. They think I'm a queer or something. It's like if I don't like basketball or football then I'm not accepted. Well Tiger woods wasn't accepted by the black community and he's rich, and so was Oprah. My point is, Do what you love no matter what others say because in the end, being happy is what matters. MLP is a well written show and is funny. That's why people like it. If people watched it because of the ponies, then we would also like Generation 1-3 which sucks. When I first heard of it my brother friend told me to watch it and I thought it was too bright and girly but I gave it a shot and I like it. This world is full of hate and the job can be very stressful dealing with people, but this show kind of calms you down and you just have a good laugh and realize that what really matters is your close friends and family who really care about you. But its a fun show once you get into it. Will I dress up like a pony? No. Do I enjoy when others dress up like ponies. Yes because it's funny. Not creepy. Funny. Thumbs up if you read my entire message.

      @benjaminhubbard1805 10 лет назад +9

      Damn! You beat me to it. You read my mind exactly and you're absolutely right. If only everyone explained their taste of MLP in these exact words. Of course the personal examples would have to be tailored to their own interests.
      Anyways I know this is a redundant statement but whatever. Be who you are, have fun, recognize those who truly care about you, and don't let anyone tell you you are weird because you are different. It truly brings a sense of personal worth when you have the confidence to be who you are and to completely disregard those who are trying to make you feel bad about yourself.

    • @axe6279
      @axe6279 Год назад +2

      It is different in that you're as far from the target audience as you can get. Adult males vs little girls. That's where the focus comes in here. I don't advocate abuse, you enjoy what you want. You do have to at least meet in the middle and accept its weird because its the very definition of it. If you're honest about that you'd get a bit more respect, which you want based on your post. Again to be the polar opposite of the target audience is very strange. That's the difference. No one is thinking about the sweat on men's bodies, only the competition itself. Beating your opponent appeals to men. They are the target audience. Oh and where I come from that's rugby with armour, not football.

      What I am imagining you are using parasite and leach as someone who is "sucking the blood out of the economy" cause the definition of a parasite is someone who benefits of the host and feeds of it. A community that watches a show I can't see hurting or 'taking money' from the government cause that's what I am assuming that's what you mean. The easiest thing you can do if you disagree is to not give a shit. Other side of your comment yeah I agree with you, I was brought up taught that the only way to achieve anything is through hard work. That's all I gotta say, cause this this is longer than what was I anticipated.

    Because it's fun, and because "fun" is an objective word that means different things to different people. Is it really that hard for some to understand that lots of people have different interests then they do? I've seen a lot of bullying of the mentally disabled come out of all the brony hate, and it's really sad, you don't have to be one to see that.

      Hi. :)
      I completely understand the feeling. While I'm not bullied that bad (not at all physically, thank goodness). What can people like you and me do but persevere in the face of such immature people. By showing them that we're completely unfazed by their attempts, we show that we're stronger then they are (even if on this inside we're upset). People like you and me are the better people in this case.
      I'm sorry that you're having a hard time :/
      But don't worry :) for every person like the one that bullies you, there's (hopefully) a person who tries to boost your moral and make you feel better (I'd say like me but whether this boosts your moral or not remains to be seen ^_^)
      I hope you're having a nice day :)

    Bronycon 2019 has just gotten over, and I'm proud to say the community was even bigger, better, and just as oddly fantastic as your video from from six years before. The convention center had to cap the ticket sales at 21,000 (although we didn't quite get there) in order to allow everybody who wanted to say goodbye to the last season of Friendship is Magic, and to look forward to the future of the fandom. One thing for absolute certain is it has changed the lives of thousands of young people for the better. Thank you all.

      Nope, our group doesn't dress as ponies except on Halloween... er, Nightmare Night. Really we usually just watch the latest episode, view a few fan videos or rewatch a past episode, then play a bunch of games (usually not MLP related) while fan music plays in the background. We hate the "OMG ANYONE WHO ISN'T A BRONY IS AN IDIOT HURR DURR" fans about as much as you do. As the last meetup of every month culminates in a midnight mafia game, I am quite curious as to what this MLP mafia game is.

      @sb17899 10 лет назад

      ***** I completely agree with you dude. And I'm a brony too. This fandom is a real fucking joke most of the time but some of us really aren't complete idiots. I mean, I'm smart enough to realize how fucking idiotic people can be about ponies.
      I mean, don't get me wrong, I have problems too. I find myself being deeply emotionally attracted to some of the characters but luckily I've taught myself to get over that shit. Oh, but really, the cloppers are a great fucking thing and a bad thing at the same time. The reason I say this is because they show proof that the brain evolves. But they put a bad font of the fandom because mostly everyone knows about all the mlp porn these days. Anyway, back to the good point. What I'm saying is, the absurd amount of pony porn shows that humans are capable of having physical and emotional attraction towards something that does not appear human. And that's good, believe it or not. It shows that some of us are capable and willing to live in peace with another sapient species. It really is an interesting thing, in my honest opinion. A lot of people don't even think about it.
      Of course this had happened with many other things. I mean, we have furries on this planet so that's something too. I'm not into that shit though, seems fucking disgusting to me. I don't get why anyone would be into that but I'm not gonna go and judge them for it.
      Anyway, I went off topic I think. Actually I don't think there ever was a point for me to type this out. But yeah, I mostly agree with you. A lot of bronies are fucked up and I'm not mad at you for thinking that. Although try to remember that there are some of us (the smallest fucking percentage ever) that really do understand how fucked up we all are. I mean, I'm proof of that, right?
      Yeah, probably not.

    I went to Brony Fan Fair in Austin, Tx I met fellow writers, illustrators, musicians, voice actors and sharing with each other our own background and why we do what we do. Then at the VA's panel listening Matt Hill and Sam Vincent tell their stories on how they got where they were and the characters they voiced in other shows. And hearing the response from the audience of how the shows the VA's voiced help them through tough times. Such an inspiration! It was well worth it.

    Reminds me of the time I went LARPing. All these guys and girls were telling me how much fun it is and what an awesome time it was. I'm like OK this sounds like fun lets do it. So the next day I drove them to the larping event. I'd say in less then a minute I was like "WTF am I doing here." I rode with them so I tried to at least pretend I was having fun.

    this still amazes me... i really dont get how guys can watch girly anime and not be judged hrsh and guys watching this.... it really doesnt make sense to me... i get people can be over the top sometimes, but seriously. condeming one community of people for liking a show..... to think after all this time, i would of thought people would actually just start tolerating and going about their buissness. im not saying "love and tolerate". no. thats not it at all. i know sometimes you may get mad at a fandom because it has alot of memes but cant you say that about most memes? Their memes. they will get spread around from time to time. and i will say this: if you dont like something, dont say it should die in a fire. you can say that you dont like it, just dont be rude. if it can be taken in a rude way, you should probobly change your phrasing. but, people will be people and and state their opinion no matter how offensive. the same goes for the bronies as well. agian people will be people, and you will stumble across people that really dont like the show. i understand your trying to stand up for the show and its fandom, but like i said, you might want to change your tone. and im sorry but love and tolerence arnt the only things taught in this show. to every one: yes there are bronies, yes there are haters, and yes this is probably gonna get hate on anyway for trying to be as calm as possible through text, my main message is: there are people that are sensitive towrds the way you treat each other. people may be people and not always use thier heads at times, but try to find another way to express your opionions without saying something extream. oh, i forgot to add, that goes for any fandom, an person, anywhere.

      They wouldn't be in the same building after the gun shots started going off. Or maybe you could use chlorine gas. Or lace poison on the door handles, toilet seats, food, and costumes. Those would both be effect, stealthy methods. Or maybe you could rerout the fire sprinklers to tanks full of sulpheric acid, it isn't that hard to obtain, and then sprinkle the toxic substance on the people who would then be swiftly eradicated. There are all other sorts of methods for mass murder, but these are a few simpler ones. Ofcourse, since ninety percent of murders resolve with the murderer being aprehended, you would likely be harming yourself more than the community as a whole. And besides that, most bronies don't go to brony con. Of course, a lot of the famous ones do, so that would be a big blow to the brony community. I could go into the moral high grounds, but the religion that supports Jihad... well, that would just be promoting the murder, which is not something I with to do.

They aren't afraid to hide they're opinions on a show, and that's amazing.

Pokémon, AOT, Hetalia, any other Anime, CreepyPasta, Harry Potter, Hunger Games, the list can go on. While bronies like it, I don't think many non mlp fans like their fandom with ponies almost everywhere. Trust me I wouldn't mind if there were just tiny little things of mlp off to the side about it but I scroll past one thing of mlp and suddenly more and more mlp shows up. Sorry if this upsets anyone I just want to put my opinion out there.

    I don't think the ones in the thumbnail are neckbeards. They just seem like friends or siblings that like cartoons, fursuits, and cosplay.

    I find the full costumes/fursuits of ponies very neat and cute! c:
