Because being unhappy because well-developed characters that you've grown attached to is clearly a sign of autism.

#1007666 To publicly display one's empathy takes guts in today's world, simply because of people like this. Meanwhile, those of us comfortable with our masculinity will be kicking back, enjoying our colorful cartoon ponies. |

I don't have a problem with displaying it, I do it myself on a daily basis. I just find it funny that somehow shed.mov traumatized people. I personally found it amusing. |

@685
You can't actually have empathy with fictional characters because they don't have feelings. I'd also recommend another part of a normal human psyche called a "sense of humor". |

I want to call him a wimp but I have to wonder about deeper issues. Maybe he can't watch ponies getting hurt for the same reasons other people can't watch even fictional children getting hurt: it triggers them thinking about something more real that disturbs them. Maybe he saw or heard something and watching stuff like shed.mov pulls it forward. |
| Clover_Patch #1007718 5 months ago |
@Fronzel Maybe not REAL feelings but a good character displays fictional feelings that you can connect to on some level. |

Much like before Fronzel, you forget that a sense of humor runs with taste, something that SEHD.MOV lacks. The former in the series were funny, twisted the characterization, made exaggerations, and followed a straight line. SHED.MOV relied nigh entirely on shock factor, and the odd pop-culture reference. And by the by, most people can pick up feelings that the character emulates throughout the text. I'm sad you're unable to, it's quite an enjoyable experience. |

While I do find the .MOV series funny, I understand where the guy's coming from.
It's like when there's a sad scene in the show. You feel sad for the characters, because they connect to you on an emotional level. |

@#1007666
The term is older than "brony". Even if you were sarcastic it's a pretty stupid joke to make. @#1007704 Not that I want to justify this kind of faggotry, but empathy is not something supernatural, metaphysical or something that comes (at least not solely) from rational ethical evaluation. It's something reflexive that corresponds to our social and nurturing instincts. The natural impulses that make you watch this show, d'awww to puppies, patronize babies, feel repulsed to pedophiles and feel compassion towards a hurt person or fluffy animal are very close to what make people feel disgust or distress by viewing a fictional character (especially cute ones) being tortured or violently slain. Enjoying graphic violence ain't something wrong as long as you have made the dinstinction in your head but for a person that is not used in doing so, not gringing to extremities would be abnormal (not to say unhealthy). |
