Actually I fully agree. |

No you don't anon 644! |

Contradictions are not a bad thing. That means you have a valid argument against it.
For example: Derpy is not offensive. If you find Derpy offensive you find people with strabismus offensive, ergo you are offensive. |

I agree with the derpy is offensive notion. |
| Saint_Braeburn #1366655 2 months ago |
Personally, I think arguing is key to a good thread. |
| Anonymous #1366656 2 months ago |
While one is certainly welcome to their own opinions, I wouldn't say this is a balanced experiment as you're not factoring in the biases and preferences of group you're testing against.
I posit that while your hypothesis would work on a neutral topic in a neutral setting, you are choosing a topic this particular forum will almost certainly find antagonistic. |

On the same matter, I dislike it when people refuse to use evidence to back up there claims. |
| Don #1366665 2 months ago |
How many people started finding Derpy offensive AFTER the whole debacle? I don't ever remember seeing anyone saying she was offensive before.
@saint: There aren't really any objective evidence to use in a purely subjective statement like that. |

Please prove that you mean it by presenting some evidence then Saint. |
| kamazeustra #1366670 2 months ago |
This thread was an attempt to gather the evidence that would support the op's claim.
Although on rereading Saint's post, I think he may be talking about arguing in threads in a more general sense. |

We're not arguing. |
| Anonymous #1366684 2 months ago |
Yes we are Bolan. |
| Don #1366686 2 months ago |
@684 I disagree |
| Jackarunda #1366687 2 months ago |
Arguing isn't just the automatic negation of whatever the other person says. |
| Saint_Braeburn #1366689 2 months ago |
@Ao667
Evidence of what? Neither of my comments were directed at the OP's pony opinions. |

I am sorry, is this the 5 minute argument, or a full half-hour? |
| kamazeustra #1366708 2 months ago |
It doesn't matter. What had been going on before was that posters were intentionally refusing to argue just to prove the op wrong. It was just a passive-aggressive way of being uncooperative. In a way we couldn't actually win because we would either argue directly with his bait statements or tacitly argue with his central thesis by refusing to disagree. Op is Tzeentch |

Your mother's the automatic negation of whatever the other person says!!! |

@Don
Actually you are mistaking why people found her offensive which had little to do with her eyes and far more to do with the combination of her voice and actions along with the name. |
| Saint_Braeburn #1366735 2 months ago |
@Anon719
The voice was an error made by the VA. And the the actions were cartoony and light hearted. No one would have complained if it had done by a non derpy eyed pony. |
| Yorec #1366742 2 months ago |
Is Derpy's new voice still Tabitha St. Germain's, or did they get someone else to do it? |
| Anonymous #1366746 2 months ago |
This is good pie. |
| Saint_Braeburn #1366748 2 months ago |
@Yorec
Still Tabitha. I'm 95% sure. |

@Saint_Braeburn
Not everyone knew it was an error. And not everyone knew that "Derpy" was anything different then "Durrr-py". The actions may have been cartoony and lighthearted but with everything factored in it would be easily perceivable as "offensive" by those not fully familiar with internet culture or the reasons why her voice was like that. The eyes were hardly what anyone complained about. Labeling the eyes as the "offensive" part is mostly just a strawman tactic. I mostly find that it's best to actually look into why people think the way they do instead of assuming things. |
| CletusDugumphry #1366785 2 months ago |
I agree completely

| Don #1366812 2 months ago |
@769 and as I said I personally find those people offensive.
They attacked 1) clumsy people 2) people with strabismus (which overlaps with 1 quite a bit) 3) girls with a low voice I will not protect the opinions of these kinds of people. |
| Worldclock #1369741 2 months ago |
@Don When did Derpy having a disorder become Canon?
Headcanon's fine. In fact, I have my own. But here's the thing; 1. Fanon is not Canon. 2. Canon>Fanon. 3. Don't let Fanon interfere with Canon. Maybe it is Canon. But until I see proof I'm not believing it. |

It has been 18 hours since this was posted and I have not seen anyone contradict the statement that any statement will be immediately contradicted. |

Failure to understand what was being said, please ignore my above comment. |
| Don #1371758 2 months ago |
@Worldclock It doesn't matter what type of lazy eye she has. The point is she has them and she doubtfully possess any kind of depth perception at all. |
| wandering_wastrel #1373461 2 months ago |
This is why attempting to communicate via the internet -- especially via posting boards -- is a waste of time. The pile-on of people disagreeing with whatever you say drowns out anyone agreeing with you or offering constructive feedback.
You might as well post at the bottom of a long list of comments made in response to a pic posted so long ago that no one will ever read it or reply to it. |
