Uh-oh. I don't think being free of individuality is Torg's strong suit or really any of the gang's strong suit.

Suddenly this is so much like the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode(s) about the cult. Specifically in the sense that everyone normally has a naturally manifesting, unique symbol reflecting their inner selves, but now someone has seen to it that these are all made identical because individuality is bad. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/ ... ieMapPart1

I get the impression that this Troloria may not be of the go-go dancing variety....

It seems like Troloria wasn't that good a writer.

"We gotta go to other forums and spread this! Go to cartoon forums!" Some pretty sick things are going on in the heads of adult men watching that show, and it appears in what they write to each other online. But I'm gonna assume you are a ten-year-old girl instead, for whom My Little Pony was made.

Hmm, now they're Fanatic Egalitarian / Spiritualist. This will be interesting to see.

Guess Pete didn't want there to be any confusion about Troloria being a tyrant.

I think that is Farmer Dillicutty and his wife, and she is giving Torg the sink-eye. But, while I also noticed that Riff was in black, it didn't click that he was the only one dressed different... I don't like the whole talk of lack of individuality either.

Is that Maya up on the podium? It does look like her, with the curl in front of her mohawk.

Given, most of them have mohawks now too, but Maya would no doubt love the idea that everyone is the same. I really wonder how long they've been there for now. Seems like quite a while again.

I'm not pushing anything, just making the observation the same way as if the strip strikingly resembled some other work of fiction. I don't know what things fans of MLP say online that you're referring to, but if I was going to be bothered by people trying to insult me by saying I don't conform to stereotypes of what media I'm supposed to avoid, I would not be saying anything about such an extremely embarrassing-sounding show in the first place.
