>they’re supposed to be diamond dogs
 
I legit thought they were just on the cover as some kind of “special” or “limited edition” version, and that they were just Littlest Petshop characters I didn’t happen to recognize.

@northern haste  

 
I agree with you to a certain extent  
When Hasbro use this line of thinking to eschew the fantasy setting with the most bullshity excuse and strongarm you into watching vapid bimbos in a high school setting, it’s hard to refrain the thought of shoving the faces of the Hasbro suit on a big whiteboard labeled “My Little PONY”.If you accept this shit,you’re okay with i dont know a Star Wars movie where no one is in futuristic space anymore instead they are all in 1980s and now follow Luc Skiwalkair, the new cook of the hype new restaurant in town The Death Star and his grumpy father manager who got lungs problem  
As far as that Diamond Dogs comic is concerned,you got a shrug from me,at least they are using existing Equestrian species,i’m like “why not” ?. I’m repeating myself but blame EQG for the people reluctance to accept that kind of stunt

Ah, I see we’ve reached the I KNOW YOU ARE BUT WHAT AM I segment of the program; any minute now someone will laugh so hard they fall off their dinosaur and maybe Miss will hand out juiceboxes.

@TexasUberAlles  
You really like to complain, huh?

@Background Pony #AB4F  
LOL shitting on the floor and breaking out your best CHECKMATE LIBTARDS smirk at anyone who complains about the smell never stops being a hilarious self-own. There is no _{~very good people on both sides}~ when you’re the one who starts whining from the rooftops.

@TexasUberAlles  
And the response to people who just do say “I don’t like this” is people always taking great care to make sure everyone can see how Above All This they are because they [checks notes] …do approve of a New Thing in a comic/cartoon franchise for children. Gee I wonder why the discourse around this show has completely degraded into insanity. It can’t possibly be the fault of anyone other than a nebulas “other”. No no, that require taking some personal responsibility for your attitude and that’d be absurd.

@Dreizehn  
It’s never just “don’t like” [whatever], though, it always seems to be the loudest and most obnoxious whining and dirtchew signaling from the same little klavern of highly pleasant and generally affable people, always taking great care to make sure everyone can see how Above All This they are because they [checks notes] …don’t approve of a New Thing in a comic/cartoon franchise for children. The very concept of not being the target audience for everything they experience is just completely beyond some people.

@TexasUberAlles  
“You don’t like stuff?? Ok pissbaby”

I wouldn’t mind if these characters were introduced as a different canine species, but those on the cover are clearly not Diamond Dogs.

I really can’t wait until IDW sales numbers drop into the triple digits.

@Barhandar  
You really do think you’re the hero here, huh.
 
Wow.

@Background Pony #19E2  
Good luck. The lead for this is a “this character who isn’t even a cardboard cutout, he’s literally just visual design with complete absence of personality, is totally nonbinarytransgay” kind of person with a trophy mixed-race daughter used for further virtue signalling.
 
If you consider character with no personality whatsoever, not even artificially assigned one, being labelled enbie post-factum to be “representation”, you have incredibly fucking low opinion of nonbinary people.

The phrase “furry bait” come to mind.

into the garbage

@Background Pony #B634  
I bet he and the ““slow”” duck boy are part of the percent people.

@Background Pony #B634
 
I don’t think you know what getting triggered means

@NLTLF  
You got triggered by “mental gymnastics” and “meds”?  
Why would this be?

The designs are ugly but as long as the characters are good they will grow on us.  
I hope

@Background Pony #6EB7  
They do it…
 
for free.

@Background Pony #6EB7
 
Well, spitting phrases like “mental gymnastics” and “meds” shows you at least have a distaste for the people who don’t agree with you.

@TexasUberAlles  
Angry? Where? Sounds like projection as you were the one who went on another ramble about background ponies (again).

@Background Pony #6EB7  
Bro, you’re getting Angry For Real because a handful of internet strangers have the audacity– the nerve!– to… not hate a bunch of cartoon dogs in a comic book for children as much as you do.

@TexasUberAlles  
Meds. Now.

 
Never change, horse fandom, never change.
 
@Background Pony #6EB7  
the mental gymnastics people will go through to defend it
