You do realize that a lot of people use brony without knowing its connotations, right?

Um, I call bullshit on that. Because you'd have to know SOMETHING of the connotations or contexts to even KNOW what "Brony" is.

DA

I think what they mean is, some people see it as nothing more than a nickname for MLP fans, like "Potterheads" or "Twihards" or whatever. They don't know about the bad sides of it because they don't hang out in those places.

Me and my brother used the term until we learned about some of the unsavory stuff in the fandom and decided to change our mind. My little sister knows an elementary school boy who calls himself a brony because he's a bo, who's an MLP fan . Would you call a nine/ten/eleven-year old a "shit-stain" because they used the term?

I'd hope not. Because that would be hopelessly gross.

I wouldn't call the kid that because a kid that young wouldn't know all that, but their parent or older sibling? Yep. Cause that's probably where they got it from. Especially if they actively use that name. Means they are aware of the shitty fandom, but don't give a damn.

You guys gave a damn and changed. Which is awesome.

NA

honest to god, it's just a word. I'm not actively involved in MLP fandom (used to watch and poke around some art/fics but don't any more) but it's a catchy term to identify fans. there will be people who call themselves bronies who are great. there will be people who like MLP and don't ID as bronies who are horrible. one word doesn't actually tell you these things about a person.

Yeah I think it's completely messed up to make a claim that if you use a word a gross person used then you're morally the same as said gross person.

Ex: Shippers. There are some shippers who have done some awfully sick or sketchy things in their fics and think it's okay. So if you call yourself a shipper , you are now a horrible human being.

fan: But I just peacefully ship HarryxHermione on the si-

Ex: IT DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER YOU'RE A SICK DISGRACE AND SHOULD BE ASHAMED! Get lost scum!

fan: T.T *hangs head and walks away*

....Yeaaaah how much sense does that make?

Considering she doesn't even realize it's not capitalized, that may be giving her way too much credit. XD

Nope.

The hell are you babbling about? Some Bronies capitalize, some don't.

[personal profile] diet_poison 2013-02-26 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
I've never seen it capitalized but then I don't spend any time around internet bronies except when someone sends me a link about one of the nasty things they've done

(Anonymous) 2013-02-26 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
Just when I thought internet subculture couldn't get any stupider... people start trying to make "brony" into a proper noun.

Man. At least y'all are good for a laugh.

To be fair I think it's just a grammar issue. Some people capitalize lots of random nouns, especially those pertaining to groups of people or a particular subject of interest.

It bugs me for that reason, lol. I'm a bit anal about grammar.
