Dumping some genuine positivity on this objectively pretty picture and pointing out the moderately clever choice to put Rarity’s cutie mark in the henna on her hand. Cute shit.

Rarity is probably my favorite pony to see as a Muslim.

Because wanting people to treat other people with dignity and accept each others’ differences as human beings is the cataclysm of our times, amirite?

Regardless of your stance on filters, we do expect you to have the self-discipline to be civil and to not use images as soapboxes for your unrelated moral outrages. Please wage your social war in the forums or on some site appropriate for such discussions.

So you’re going to downvote an image - not based on the quality or content of the image at hand - but on the artist?

@LegatusFlagrans  
Why should I? While I consider humanizations with out‐of‐place religious garb or skin colors to be inane I won’t downvote them simply because of that–there needs to be some evidence that the artist has an ideological axe to grind to get my downvote. Based on the artist’s favorites on DA and their Facebook it’s pretty clear that she’s chummy with the SocJus community, supportive of their causes and shares their prejudices. As such I’m not giving her the benefit of the doubt; this pic is an instance of forced diversity–politically motivated bullshit–and deserves downvotes just like mouthpieces do.

There are filters
 
Use them

@LegatusFlagrans  
Forced diversity deserves nothing but downvotes.

I don’t even think that picture is about religion.  
It’s mostly about tradition.

@zerowinger66  
True. The militant atheists never fail to jump on things like that.  
I mean, I think it’s kind of odd to associate MLP and religion in general, even as a Catholic myself; but seriously, 84% of the world follows some religion to some degree, and no matter how many images they downvote, it’s not going away anytime soon.
 
@Background Pony #61E9  
It’s not really fair to some artists, though, because sometimes something they made to be trash will get more votes than their GOOD work.  
I guess we can’t all win, though.

@zerowinger66  
If only they went ahead and nuked downvotes

@LegatusFlagrans  
In fairness, lots of people will also downvote any images tangentially relating Christianity as well.

Wow, one of these that actually looks good for once

Not a tattoo actually, but it’s henna.

This is really nice ^^

I love how it’s always the same 50-some-odd people who mass downvote images even remotely related to Islam.
 
Fyay off back to /pol/, people.
 
That being off my chest, stellar work, especially on that tattoo.

I like the tattoo on her hand.
