Hmm. Your profile page says you have 27.2k. Even if those k's are 1024, it still only comes out to about 27853.

@topspin I don't know the context but I understand the point. Children's cartoons are weird like that.

Considering you can name all MLP episodes in order, I think you need to get your priorities straight.

@topspin MLP is the only cartoon I've seen that did a half decent job of portraying the pitfalls of communism.

Not sure if disgusted or intrigued.

Yeah, no. I'll stick with Garfield, if that's ok.

Like, there's an entire two-parter about a dictator who made everypony equal, and imprisons everyone who shows any sign of individuality. Somehow it's still rated Everyone.

Don't forget that the show starts out with a literally-world-ending situation (the potentially-permanent absence of the sun)!

@Tsaukpaetra well, yeah, but that's a typical good-vs-evil fantasy quest plot. Here you have actual lesson in modern politics.

Fun fact: Garfield the cat was not, as one might think, named after President Garfield. He was actually named after Jim Davis's grandfather... who was named after President Garfield.
-
@Mason_Wheeler Fun fact #2 (less so): I knew of President Garfield before I knew about Garfield the cat. The TV programme back then mistranslated it as something like "Garfield and compatriots", which made me think it was just another boring documentary about dead people. But then I switched to the channel anyway, and the rest is, well, history.
-
@Applied-Mediocrity the only thing I know about president Garfield is that he was a president (literally the only - I don't even know his first name). And the only reason I know that is because I've read a list of presidents on Wikipedia.
-
@Gąska Life before internets was weird that way.
-
@Applied-Mediocrity I knew of Garfield the comic cat before I heard of internet. Which is weird in itself. I knew of him, I was familiar with how he looks, but I've never seen any comic, cartoon or other Garfield media until years later.
-
@Gąska Not that weird. He was created with the specific intent of being merchandise-able.

But did he make the pig-ponies more equal than the others?

Nah, just your average brainwashing.

Nope. It was real equality. Maybe that explains the rating...

Nope. It was real equality. Maybe that explains the rating...
Except the leader themself, IIRC. The leader was only masquerading.
But yes. It's weird how children's cartoons place friendship above everything. Except the one show, where "friendship is magic". But all them rest... it's loyalty, loyalty, loyalty. If the plots weren't obviously recycled from ages ago, I'd suspect some kind of indoctrination conspiracy.
