The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

Fluffle Puff isn’t a Fluffy Pony. She’s a pony who’s fluffy.

That’s just a semi-random recent one that I picked because it was the first one I found that wasn’t too graphic for the thread. It happens to be pure Fluffy Pony Abuse, but it’s just one example. There’s also Hugbox, Sadbox, and neutral. Fluffy Pony as a genre can be used in a lot of ways, and tragedy is one of them. Catharsis is another. They can be stand-ins for the homeless, minorities, the third world, slaves, the handicapped, the working man, etc., if you want to make a social point about cruelty, unfairness, or about survival against the odds. They can also be fodder for black comedy, or comedy-of-errors. Or pure weirdness. Lovecraftian horror. (Sometimes in humor where it’s only eerie horror from the Fluffy Pony’s perspective; a human being would recognize what’s going on and not give it a second thought.) Or feel-good action/revenge stories. Or the ultimate opponent if you want to set up a story around one of the most fun tropes, like Mugging the Monster , or Curb-Stomp Battle . Especially when those all combine, as in a bad Fluffy Pony has been getting away with bullying much nicer Fluffy Ponies, until it makes the mistake of going after something else that it woefully underestimated. Like a kitten. Or a particularly mean-tempered lorikeet.
 
Or even hard science fiction; imagine Blade Runner where the Replicants are just as hated, and just as hunted, but are harmless toys instead of combat thralls several times stronger than their hunters. How do they try to survive? Or psychological explorations; why would someone do that?

One is free to like what one likes, but I think that’s missing some of the most poignant examples of Fluffy Pony at its best. There’s edgy-just-to-be-edgy, and then there’s brutality to make a point. And even avoiding brutality altogether, there’s still great stuff like this:
 
 
Which it kind of surprises me isn’t in your gallery.

Seriously. Screw this guy videos. After Filly Pinkie Pie gore PMV and ,,Infected Rarity” PMV Im starting really hate this guy. It’s just because I hate gore PMV’s. It’s not my type of Pony Music Videos.
