It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow chapos. Wreckers/CHUDs are allowed. If they aren't banned yet then report them, don't post them.
(I didn't, largely since I've never watched a single episode, but the psychic damage and whiplash of Wholesome Pony Show having said this line was too fuckn much for me)
EDIT: More replies than upbears now. It’s probably an official struggle session now (although most of it is that one person). One must imagine SisyFEWs happy.
I think it's so inevitable that even bringing up that particular show is going to churn out a similar vibe to what happened in the early 2000s if someone so much as brought up furries.
Has any other fandom reached the peak that MLP:FiM did? Maybe Rick and Morty, right before the Szechuan Sauce incident embarrassed everyone who liked that show so much that they stopped wanting to be associated with it.
At the risk of setting them off again, I argue that Gambo, at its height, was like that, and unlike FiM or even R&M it had painfully mainstream saturation. It was basically impossible to exist in public anywhere with a line or a waiting room, where a TV or a magazine could be found, without "WHICH MURDERFUCKER IS ON THE IRON THRONE THIS WEEK?"
headlined everywhere, for years. I had to involuntarily learn a lot about that show during that time.
Gambo! Can't believe I didn't think about that.
Come to think of it, that one also crashed spectacularly like the R&M one did, although it was from a failure of the show itself rather than the fans embarrassing themselves in thousands of McDonalds all across America. MLP:FiM for all its fandom's excesses just sort of faded out.
The banker-born sexpest failson creeps that ran that show had everything going for it and still drove it into the ground with sheer fucking hubris with a side order of resentment toward Emilia Clarke because she started pushing back and didn't want to just be their (CW: SV)

actually-weeping-because-of-contractual-coercion SV plaything on camera anymore so they character assassinated the character then had her murderfucked as petty retaliation.
