Yet One More Idiot

Higher up on the page, the author claims that “in 2007, the ‘brony’ phenomenon emerged”. Honestly, I think he’s just making up numbers.
At any rate, the “waifu eyes” first appeared in G3.5, and I don’t know that anyone wanted to sex those horses:
 
Speak for yourself, Toola Roola and Starsong were hot.
 
/s, naturally. xP

“Strange content” makes it sound like anime is this incomprehensible and arcane magic that can only be harnessed by deep web otakus, and it has my sides in orbit.

The books seems like another left wing political hack with shoddy surface level knowledge of internet culture, hopelessly out of touch trying to explain to other hopelessly out of touch social activist about how 4chan is a secret fascist internet cult that “toxified” our society. That or its a troll, but considering the reach of deranged cultural elitist trying to protolyze their arbitrary, moral absolutism these days…

Famed hacker terrorist 4chan at it again  
It’s amazing how ignoramuses take a bunch of self-important troll kids and blow them up into this giant conspiracy that controls everything lol  
Lauren Faust who is that?

It’s almost funny how badly the writer, in an attempt to be an author, is missing the point. There was no race to the bottom. Our lives were already that bad. The rest was people looking for something to destroy, and no-one trying to stop them from making the legitimate posters on 4chan’s pony-page look bad.

Well… when exactly did Lauren created her redesign?) Personally, I don’t remember, I’ll have to look to clarify, but it seems like it was before the beginning of the fourth generation.  
Although later than 2003, as far as I remember.
