All great leaders begin somewhere. Also, they fail somewhere down the line, but hey, you can't make a revolutionary government without cracking some eggs. For Starlight, she just ran out of eggs to crack and is now on the run, her own little slice of utopia utterly ruined.

However, she has a plan. A plan that cannot fail! A plan that involves her escaping through the tunnels of the mountains, writing a manifesto proclaiming her greatness, and then for her to set up a new town somewhere far away from Princess Twilight.

The manifesto part, as it turns out, is the most difficult to pull off of the bunch. Who would've guessed?


Big thanks to my editor SirTruffles for all his wonderful help and advice!

Also, yes, the title is supposed to be spelled like that. I enjoy rhyming, how 'bout you?

of course the day after release of the episode. i knew it would happen, just not from what person, though i should have expected it to be from this person.

Sweet Baby Ultron, you people work fucking fast..

part reared it’s unsightly head.

Bob... It's should be its. :ajbemused:

Bound to happen. Thanks Bobby!

Bob, you magnificent bastard.

So many Starlight fics! So little time!

I didn't think I'd have to post this again so soon...

Oh well. Still good. Still funny. Still Rainbowbob.

That was a terrible manifesto. Starlight Glimmer really ought to have sought counsel on its construction.

Colgate (also known as Minuette) actually has a slightly different Cutie Mark than Time Turner

...yes, the fandom actually took the time to tell them apart

Oh, Starlight, you shall forever be the butt of many a Socialist/Communist joke...until you return as a badass in the finale or something...

I think everyone forgets a current deity when they write stories that deal almost with this kinda stuff.

Perhaps its all his plan.

Time Turner is the Doctor
Colgate is either River Song or the Master (Series 8 version)

Let's be honest, who WASN'T expecting Bob to pop out a Starlight fic ASAP? You please me well bro. :)

Ri2

I'd probably feel a little sorry for Starlight being bullied by Sunset if I didn't hate her so very much.

5828314
Don't hate, retaliate. With looooooooove! :heart:

Before I read this story, who in the flying fuck is Starlight?

5828213
I'm pleasing, that'll be $20. I just ain't a cheap hoe off the side of the street. I'm the cheap hoe at the bar! Much higher class.

5827955
What I said to him but for you $40. Your tab is much too large (and I wish I could say the same about other things).

5827958
For you, only $10, cause you gots a purdy face.

5828336
Somepony from that one show called MLP. Totally lame, I know, but give it a shot when you have the chance.

5828360
Bitch we both know that wallet's empty except for expired condoms.

5828365 Bitch pls I be rocking that Gucci wallet.:trollestia:

5828445 I've seen that theory as well

I've not watched any classic Who, so my knowledge about the Fourth Doctor is limited, but everyone is welcome to their own speculation and headcanons that the 100th episode is going to utterly wreck...

5828336 Starlight Glimmer is an antagonist in the Season 5 Premiere. She believes Cutie Marks, which represent an individual's special talents, are evil and everypony should be equal. She possessed the Staff of Sameness, which removes a pony's Cutie Mark and locked them in a vault in a cave. You can watch the season 5 premiere to find out how the Mane 6 deal with her and her philosophy.

I believe that everyone who correlates communism with what Starlight does doesn't have a clear idea of what communism truly is. I have communist friends so I can attest to that.

Great story p.s. I used your image in a video of mine I hope you don't mind https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5yFjZaODnec

Best I can make do with communism is this.

Brilliant. Not much more to say other than that.

Believe it or not, but since S7E14 "Fame and Misfortune" Starlight's Manifesto ist actually a thing.
At least she confirmed it herself that she wrote one.
