> SJW’s who couldn’t care less about the shows past, using it to push their diversity agenda. Many of the episodes featuring non-ponies are blatant propaganda.
what do you mean by propaganda? Unless it´s some globalist topic that you want to draw a conspiracy,I don´t think the students come into play as propaganda because they could have gone really cheap with them. 

You are right that it´s got really bad on season 8...in the sense that Non Compete Clause is the worst episode of that season which features the students.I am giving you that.

But,explain to me why I do cherish and have What Lies Beneath and A Heart´s Warming Club as highlights, which feature them as protagonists as well? Besides the "everycreature" forced expression (which by the way was used by Fluttershy in several episodes and those times were not aimed at the students exactly when she said it),can you tell me anything else that can be seen as explicit propaganda? 

It´s okay to have negative opinions towards them but I see that this fanbase forgets things quickly. The students are just an easy target to point out (the hottest new thing from the show) in order to say that the past material was good and the most recent one is bad (which I am tired of that trend but fortunately enough, Star Light´s redemption, the changelings drama in season 6 and Twilicorn have cooled down and become towards the noisy complaints).

But if that wasn´t enough, both part of the fanbase (its /pol/ side mostly) and the show staff (on Twitter) made the introduction of Scootaloo´s aunts EVEN WORSE than the episode itself. While they were throwing shitposts at each other, they were looking at the finger pointing at the moon instead of the actual moon: the introduction of Scootaloo´s parents was actually the central problem and why it was really questionable to judge....and everyone was focusing on the aunts. It cost me more time to review The Last Crusade because of the additional drama than any other episodes focused on or featuring the students slightly. That moment, as far as I am concerned, was more embarrassing and explicitly political driven than the entirety of season 8 and you have proof of it in both threads, discussing these last two seasons and available for anyone to watch and discuss. 


> I’ve always found that reading a good romantic fic gets me way more horny than looking at any picture of pony pussy.
well, that´s your own taste and I see where you are coming from.

> I don’t want to lose track of the stories actual plot. In my opinion the best world building should happen naturally within your already existing plot, you shouldn’t need to devote whole sections of your story just to world building, there’s usually a good way you can work it into the plot.
indeed and I am not going to deny that. I am simply lost at its settings so I would have to make an additional effort in order to understand it. That´s my personal gripe, nothing else.

> I personally love reading it, but I can’t read pure clop, there has to be some kind of plot or interesting set of characters revolving around it, and there rarely is in a clop-fic.
I agree with you on this one.

> I was planning on writing it out over months.
it was an irony. Of course one cannot get invested at writing that amount of words in such a short period of time.

> Early season 2.
I asked that because your comment towards the changeling have caught me my attention and it shows that...

> How about you Anon?
you haven´t spent as much time. It means that you have decided to be obsessed on fan content (and I have very little knowledge towards the trends of FIMFiction because I have cared more about the canon material first and then, play with the tools that the show offers. 
You can see that there are two discussion threads about the show (seasons 8 and 9, all my reflections along with Bridgefag´s ones, are there for anyone to read.The only season that made me lose my faith at first was season 3 but S4 secured my loyalty towards this show. I haven´t felt that loss ever since.
