My Little Pony And The Perspective Of The Upper Class: A Libertarian Analysis

Wherever you find A non these days, you're sure to find ponies, and paulbots for whatever reason.



I don't see the attraction, myself... to Ayn Rand that is. She is nowhere near as adorable and friendly as Fluttershy.

And Fluttershy has a message for Ron Paul: Neo-Nazism is just not nice!

(Note that they arrested the guy in the above link... the thin blue line of fascists protects its own, I'm afraid.

Sigh, if only the libertarian movement could be free of racism and Objectivists, they might be able to make common cause with us lefties.)

Also, how could The Super Speedy Cider Squeezy 6000 be anything OTHER than an anti-big business episode about driving out small family farmers and the petit bourgeoisie?!

They have a pony named Stinkin' Rich, for heaven's sake. And he controls the supply of cider to downtown Ponyville.

I see a movie in the making: [font face="Lucida Blackletter"]There Will Be Cider[/font].
