Description

“And what is the Princess of Friendship, without her friends?”
 
Did you hear that, girls? Sure, you have no hope of being anything close to her equal, but hey, saving the world half a dozen times has earned you the swanky new title of “Twilight’s Friends”! And maybe she’ll even let you serve as her trusted advisors.
 
Twilight needs to check her fucking privilege.

I know and that is really all that’s important. But you have people complaining because Twilight is above the others despite them having wildly different aspirations. If those people really want to get into semantics of group inequality, they should realize that in terms of accomplishments, they were never going to be fully equal. That part hasn’t really changed.

Twilight has always been the leader and the one they turn to. Right from the beginning she was the one that brought them together and the one that gave most of the friendship reports. Also she was always destined to rise the highest of the group. Even Faust had her set to be Celestia’s successor which ranks far above being a Wonderbolt or a famous designer. The dynamic isn’t actually any different than it was before.
 
I’m actually a bit surprised that more people don’t complain about the AJ’s, Pinkie’s and Fluttershy’s roles. I mean, Twilight was always set to become an important pony (I would have guessed being a member of the royal court before the alicorn thing happened), Dash is going to be a famous sports star, and Rarity will be a famous designer. Pinkie, if things go her way, could become a famous party planner who sets up parties around Equestria. AJ though will always just be a farmer and a pony that helps out around town. Fluttershy is just a recluse who takes care of animals. Their destinies pale in comparison to the others.

This is pretty much the opposite of primus inter pares. Primus inter pares is when you have a group who are officially equals,  
and one of them is unofficially seen as important and knowledgeable by his peers. Here, one member is officially the leader, but the leader pretends not to be, and any pretense of equality is a farce.
 
 
@RaineV1  
You know full well that being Celestia’s student is not the same as being a princess yourself. She was part of a team at first, and now her friends are just her sidekicks. See her cutie mark in the middle? This is her castle; the others are just guests and advisors.

Completely failing to grasp the PAINFULLY OBVIOUS “Knights of the Round Table” vibe this gives off.
 
Notice how Twilights throne ISNT EVEN CENTERED!?
RaineV1

You mean the personal protege of a thousand year old ruler and the younger sister to a royal couple is being treated like nobility? I for one am shocked and appalled!
 
Also, honestly, season 4 has been the best season of the show.

Or maybe this is a Noble Republic, with Twilight as “Primus Inter Pares”?
 
Or the rest of the Mane 6 are counciliors?

Psst, hey, guess what?  
FUCK YOU!
 
God, you Twilicorn-supporters get on my nerves with your smug sense of superiority.
 
No, it’s not constant negativity; we just don’t blindly approve of every single move the franchise makes. No, it’s not the worst or most important thing in the world, but that doesn’t make it good! No, it’s not the only problem in my life, but for fuck’s sake, my favorite television show is in a downwards spiral, and I’m not going to pretend like everything’s all hunky-dorey just so people like you won’t have to undergo the trauma of people not liking a thing you like.

Yeah, maybe it’d be better if you just went off and got drunk because honestly you whiny arseholes get on my nerves with your constant negativity. You’re watching a god damn show about pastel ponies and complaining about the damn Monarchy. Get ahold of yourself, for God’s sake. I’d love to be living a life so perfect that the only thing you have to complain about is a show not going your fucking way.

Alright, let’s see- That’s “It’s just a toy commercial!”, “You’re just butthurt cuz ur headcanons!”, both “Faust-worshipper!!!” and “It’s what Faust would’ve wanted, so you have to like it!”- that’s, what, five drinks?

She said she wanted Twilight to be her successor. Also, need I remind you, it doesn’t matter what Lauren Faust wanted. She left the show half way through series 2. She started it off and the majority of the lore has been created by the writing and animating team at DHX studios.  
Frankly, I’m amazed they didn’t make the whole Mane 6 princesses. Not because they “deserve it”, but simply so they could sell a bunch more toys from making Alicorn Mane 6.  
Do people like you just get-off on badmouthing the show though?
