OH WOW A BLACK PERSON LET’S ARGUE!

well after i read the comments i can simply conclude that people here are hostile to whites, and the idea of white ponies is absolutely intolerable to everyone here
 
so i give up,  
zecora is now the only white character in mlp, and everyone else is black

@stimpyyy  
The version where everyone’s from Doug? I don’t see how those relate; besides, human interpretations like these are based on the show’s characters, not EG’s.

@Background Pony #FDF0  
I was meaning you in the general sense of those people that were being referenced, though I could have phrased it better. I find it all pretty ridiculous that it even needs to be a thing of contention and that someone’s interpretations can’t just be as hunky-dory as they are when they’re just all white.

@Background Pony #413E  
but then how do you explain EG?

@Background Pony #413E

Also, personally, I just think Rarity’s color scheme in particular looks bad with dark skin. But that’s me.

@Background Pony #413E
 
I don’t think he’s saying he thinks that. he’s probably saying that it’s what some people think.

@Background Pony #FDF0  
The thing is, the ponies aren’t white. They aren’t even human. By thinking of it as a cheap way to inject multiculturalism, you’re insinuating that they need to be a certain way, which they don’t.

@Mildgyth  
yeah the donkeys can be debatable

@Angelus  
it is self evident

@stimpyyy
 
Zebras, we can understand, but what are you basing this on? and what about the donkeys?

nope I’m going to wear nothing

Everyone’s arguing about skin color and I’m just sitting here wondering why Rarity is wearing Guybrush Threepwood’s pants.

@Alvrexadpot  

 
I think most of us don’t care what color they are and simply just remain quiet. Also, welcome back.
 
 
@stimpyyy  

 
Why?

zebras and mules take the place of the dark skinned races, but ponies are white,  
but doing this to Rarity is just wrong on so many levels :C

@Mildgyth  
And i did for awhile, but as i told a few other i might come back in a few months since I’d still be working on my cosplays, and here I am, thanks!

@Alvrexadpot  
I’m not saying they do, I’m just trying to illustrate why people get annoyed by this stuff sometimes.

@Mildgyth  
Ah, you’re right, my bad

@Alvrexadpot
 
Well, Pegasus, Unicorn and Earth Pony are races. however, they are not distinguished by color.
 
Anyway, i thought you had quit. well, i’m glad i was wrong.

@Background Pony #FDF0  
I don’t recall ponies having a race, but okay.

@Background Pony #413E  
Because it’s generally seen by a lot of people as a cheap way to inject multiculturalism or “be open-minded” or “representation” without any real thought as to the implications.
 
Because there are way too many artists out there who have completely shameless double standards about racial equality.
 
Because a japanese artist who turned Garnet (who is not black, just dark-skinned) into That Funny Whiteish Color Japan Makes Everyone By Default in his fanart without considering the implications got enormous butthurt going on from tumblr complaining about that sort of thing, and yet turning white characters black is perfectly okay cough cough Blake Belladonna cough. So apparently just being a little inconsiderate is evil, but deliberately race-swapping someone is totally okay. As long as you don’t make them white.

@Background Pony #413E  
typically its an issue from my small experience here.

Strictly associating coat colour with skin colour is dumb, so I don’t see why black Rarity is a problem.

@Dr Outback  
I will always be here to argue, never fear
