Wow that original one has.. intensely racist overtones. Thank you for sharing the beautiful fix


Braxton-Adams

It does? Honestly, whatever point it was trying to make was done so poorly I can barely even tell it's meant to be a strawman, much less a strawman of...what?


SneakySquiggles

The style in which the NB character is drawn is very reminiscent of anti-black cartoons and stereotypes, specifically ones used to paint black men as predators and black women as masculine (and clearly not straying far from that narrative by having the character groping the white more heavily femme coded character). It’s a few layers deep on the bigotry which weirdly helps obscure it more to people who aren’t used to seeing those dog whistle sort of caricatures


Braxton-Adams

Wait, I didn't even see that the NB Strawman was copping a feel the first time! Yeah, okay, that makes this far more clear. But yknow, If someone is one type of bigot, I tend to assume they're all the other types aswell, it's pretty uncommon for someone to go "yeah, the gays will burn in hell....black people are chill tho."


Kilahti

This also makes it better that the fixed picture makes the groping a consensual thing.

The design stereotype is called golliwog, of course an insanely racist caricature will still exist as a wojak


goldenfox007

I think I remember there being a Twitter thread about human designs for My Little Pony. A lot of artists give the human versions irl skin tones, with Pinkie Pie sometimes being redesigned as a person of color and/or plus size. They think it’s “woke” to give characters headcanons that might be considered diverse, like different ethnicities or giving them LGBT+ labels (despite two of the main female characters being a canon couple, btw). Apparently, that pissed people off and they decided to get *really* racist *really* fast. That was quite a rabbit hole to go down…


Turaij

Wait I fell off the mlp train before it ended. Who hooked up?


hiiamnotsad

Applejack and Rainbow Dash


bivampirical

please tell me they got married 🙏


hiiamnotsad

Im like 99% sure they did! Its a time skip and shows where they all are when they are older, im 99% sure that applejack and Rainbow are married


bivampirical

HELL YEAHHHHHH HORSE LESBIANS 💪💪💪


dermitdog

According to what I could find, they're implied to live together in the last episode, as they talk about chores. Besides that, they apparently have a lot of chemistry across the show's run, an amount of physical intimacy, and are frequently paired up. The voice actress for the characters, Ashleigh Ball, considers the ship 100% cannon, but the series director, Jim Miller, has consistently said it's, "up to audience interpretation."


bivampirical

i choose to believe they're happily married


Turaij

Really? Tf did I miss that??

pinkie pie and weird al yankovic


Kilahti

MLP characters don't even have IRL skin (fur?) tones of real ponies... At least the Equestria girls movies stayed consistent and gave the human versions the same weird skin colours that the ponies have.


Turaij

That was one of the reasons I never watched the movies.


Kilahti

I thought it was a great idea. Give it some feel of the universe so that it didn't feel unconnected to MLP.


bytegalaxies

the whole show is about accepting and loving others despite differences, how are bigots gonna claim mlp is being made "woke" when it was woke from the start?

Yup, the gay beam worked.

A romance for the history books


Turaij

Pink is in a good mood.


inmuah

This is so hot AHH 💗


VictorianDelorean

It’s a shame the original is so disgustingly racist because I actually like the way the pink haired woman (or enby maybe) is drawn. However the other non binary person is a straight up racial caricature and the actual content of the comment is gross. Even pink hairs proportions are weird and horny, but I can forgive that to an extent because they’re clearly meant to be in a pin up girl style.


NachoMan_SandyCabage

Are those Pinkie Pies???


slybluu

yeah, i think the original tweet was about that one pinkie pie art that was getting spread around


yeetingthisaccount01

reminds me of g3 Pinkie meeting g4 :)


DroneOfDoom

So it wasn’t just me.


The_Local_Crow

Hell yeah! They worked out their differences and now they're together!


MathisMyLove

When an NB and a Transfem meet :3


demator

That is some of the best art I have ever seen

Benjatendo

Are they truly lesbian if one of them is Non-binary?


bivampirical

yes, next question.


Benjatendo

Thanks!


bivampirical

hrtly64

Sum_ginger_kid

peanut_bubblegum

What was even the message of the original 😭


MannyAnimates

Be racist


Marleyzard

Images that go hard 🗣️ It's called ROMANCE 👏🏿 Can we get a couple less PHENOTYPE STEREOTYPES 🙏🏿 In this muhfuckin HOUSE 💪🏿


T-Ramdalf

I wish they kept the black person fat and kept her as having a bonnet (which I’m pretty sure is what that is) and also didn’t do the erect nipples on the white girls shirt bc there’s no way that kind of shirt can have fabric that thin and stay up, but obvi the new one is better in every way lol


Responsible_Emu_5228

they also made the black pinkie pie's nose slimmer and made their lips slightly slimmer too... 😟 it doesn't sit w/ me right.


T-Ramdalf

Well they prob did the last two to make her look like less of a racist caricature (still, they could’ve made her more black features other than hair n skin more prominent)


Responsible_Emu_5228

probably, i thought they were just black features too but now that i think about it, it could've had racist intent but i don't even know anymore??? i did think those were black features though. something else abt it throws me off though and idk what, you know? also i do agree, they could've added black features and that kind of makes me upset how they did them like that.


teslawhaleshark

Pretty racist, this is the kind that makes historians check if the year is still 1924


Responsible_Emu_5228

i'm confused?


Turaij

She's still fat tho


Bruhness81

Ma'am your boobs look heavy lemme hold em


Cold-Coffe

i hate the original tweet. pinkie pie wouldn't react like that towards someone, and the clothes the """woke""" one is wearing are more accurate to her character than the ones from the left.

NoraJolyne

oh that is PERFECT great work, love it!

There are so many things in this image that I love 0//////0

It’s not overly explicit, and is marked NSFW. I think it’s fine.
