Derpy should also claim that the rent is too damn high. |

All the politics in this town are crazy! (Except Luna's, she seems nice) |

Was Celestia even born at all? |
| Theseus_Acumen #486373 10 months ago |
I didn't know that the government in Equestria was democratic to begin with. Celestia seemed to have been given power because she was the oldest,wisest, and most capable. At least if you take into consideration how she is Canonically, rather than Fanonically. As for Luna, there really isn't anything to go off for her policies, besides what fans have attributed to her, same goes for Derpy. |

@Theseus_Acumen I think you're probably reading too much into it. The author was probably just using ponies for satire. I don't think this is a real statement about Equestria's politics |
| Theseus_Acumen #486384 10 months ago |
@486382 In this case you are probably right. Though the subject itself is not an uncommon one. I find that people do believe that the policies in Equestria are democratic, and that other people think that It's a pure Tyranny. This would be fine if this were all in fun, but many take this seriously. For this reason it is a subject that does require some discussion. I just took this picture as an invite for such discussion. |

Wha--- not also did I get Ninja'd, but I posed it NEGATIVE NINE SECONDS ago. |
| Xuncu #486500 10 months ago |
Negative 8 this time.
Anywho, I think we're deep enough in the comments for spoliers? Red Party = Republican: amoral, blatant liars, using non-heteros as scapegoats. Blue = Democrat; spineless. Muffin = Tea Party, conspiracy theorists in general. |
| AppleDashWINS #486534 10 months ago |
Our current political make-up in a pony-shaped nutshell. Tis a shame, really
And as for the Red party, the LGBT blame is even funnier because Celestia is pretty much a goddess, and.. well, i don't need to Explain the Joke from there lol "Rather be liked than to fix your problems" doesn't sound right, but meh, it doesn't matter lol |

Oh, also the 'mind-aletering leprosy' is the "Vaccines cause autism" conspiracy theory, and we recently had that one idiot suggest the moon landing was faked not too may pictures ago, for Discorded!Applejack. |

Griffon law = sharia law, I posted that link earlier.
Tax cuts for top-hats and monocles = tax cuts for the rich. Health care = do you really need me to fucking explain this, too?? |

And Dr Whooves represents the intellectual (and, like me, Independant/"vaguely anarchist") elite who're tired of this shit, and rather go jump in a TARDIS and go anywhen else, but have to settle for snarky commentary.
