    Correcting the Critics #2: "Save MLP"

    It's been a while since I did my last part in the series. But recently, I saw something that encouraged this installment. A tweet pointing out what someone said 10 months prior. On November 25th 2022, Fluttercheer made a blog post on this site about Save MLP and sent a message about how supporters of that

    ChatGPT came up with AU fanfic ideas

    I'd say that the title of this blog post says it all, but I'd be lying. I'm not the type who would rely on ChatGPT. But I would certainly consider it once in a while and would most definitely recommend it, especially if you have writer's block.

    Some of these ideas I may use sometime. Or anyone reading this blog can use them for their own inspiration.

    Correcting the Critics #1: "Why Couldn't MLP been more epic?"

    I've chosen to begin a new blog series where I look at the claims of trolls, haters, and ignorant people and pick apart their claims. I can't promise how regular or frequent this series will be. But I wanted to make a proper series with a straight-to-the-point name. In this series, I will also avoid actually posting any links or saying names. I don't want to give the people or groups any

"De-Bunking (Scribbler's Criticism & Equestria's laws/stats)" Debunked (Part 2) · 6:16am Nov 4th, 2021

Click here for Part 1

Well, would you look at that! Mykan made an update to his original blog post and includes recognizing me as one of his decorators! Do I recognize that he corrected that typo? Yes. Does Mykan deserve the respect of me ignoring the original typo despite the correction? Absolutely not. So I am proud to be recognized by Mykan as one of his decorators (you know, that's not as amusing in this context, because it makes me wonder why I'm not getting paid to be his decorator).

This is "De-Bunking (Scribbler's Criticism & Equestria's laws/stats)" Debunked (Part 2).


Something I'd like to address that I didn't in Part 1 is the title of his blog post. There's a part of the post that simply doesn't apply to the content of the blog. And that is the singular word "stats". The blog post doesn't contain any stats, nor does it even mention any stats other than the title. But maybe that'll change in this edit addressing his newest decorator, Your's Truly (I'm betting that he doesn't (SPOILER ALERT: He doesn't)).

Edit November 1:

You got to that pretty quickly. Is there a reason why you're stalking my account beyond just viewing me as one of your decorators?

What do you know? My detractors are still being desperate with their poor analysis...

I'd hardly think of myself as desperate. Or do you think you're the only person in the world that your decorators pay any attention to? We simply address toxicity in the fandom. And anti-fandoms are some of the most toxic of all.

Also, that is not the definition of liberal. Simply put, liberal simply means free.

Where did this guy learn...? From the back of a cereal box?

Were you able to come up with that insult on your own, or did you mommy help you? Seriously, that's such an immature insult that it demonstrates that how you mature isn't as important than the general fact that you should just mature.

If you're done with your ad hominem attacks...

lib·er·al

1.
willing to respect or accept behavior or opinions different from one's own; open to new ideas.
2.
relating to or denoting a political and social philosophy that promotes individual rights, civil liberties, democracy, and free enterprise.
noun
1.
a supporter of policies that are socially progressive and promote social welfare.
2.
a supporter of a political and social philosophy that promotes individual rights, civil liberties, democracy, and free enterprise.

Congratulations. You proved me wrong about saying that's not the definition.

Before you claim victory though, you didn't prove me wrong about it meaning freedom. And the thing is that each of those definitions addresses a person's freedom in some way. The reason I was wrong is because I addressed the root word for "liberal" rather than the word "liberal" itself. The root word for "liberal" is "liberty", which generally does mean freedom. And I noticed that you failed to notice the fact that I was right about that fact.

Also, being liberal doesn't mean you respect or accept all opinions/behaviors that are not their own. It's about being open-minded to new ideas. I doubt Scribbler demonstrated any opinions or behaviors that haven't been seen before.

And let's not forget that you also quote mined me.

(And just so nobody gets on my back about my comment about no true synonyms, the meaning is more nuanced than that.)

I'll grant that you didn't get on my case about that. But by not addressing it, others could... although you didn't address my point about no true synonyms either so... never mind.

I dare you to use that reasoning if you get stopped and handed a speeding ticket.

Comparing a traffic citation which you are ordered to pay... to a legal rights document granted to someone, which puts them under no obligation to sign...

...What an idiot.

If he was under no legal obligation to sign anything, then why was he in court in the first place? I haven't actually read the story, so I don't have the full context. If it was for custody, it seems to me that Scribbler doesn't want the kid anyway, so it seems redundant to have a custody case.

That's not what conspiracy means.

Actually... it is...

con·spir·a·cy
/kənˈspirəsē/

noun
a secret plan by a group to do something unlawful or harmful.

the action of plotting or conspiring.

"they were cleared of conspiracy to pervert the course of justice"



....Mykan wins again.

That is the proper definition for "conspiracy".

The reason why that's not a win for you is because what I addressed was in the context of a single individual. A conspiracy requires a group. So Mykan loses again.

Also, you're part of an anti-fandom, which means you are in fact a conspirator.

My poor, pathetic detractors... I could give them admiration for "TRYING" but I won't.

This is just for the sake of making another insult towards your decorators since nobody believes that you would even consider showing any form of admiration. Although ironically, by pointing out that you could do so, you admit that it's possible to get recognition for trying. So you actually do show a level of admiration there simply by addressing the possibility.

They try to bring me down, and they've failed.

If your decorators have failed, then why do we live rent-free in your head?

Watch... they're gonna come up with more desperate excuses and pitiful roleplays. Like that's gonna bring me down? Hahahaha!!

Roleplays? What does roleplaying have anything to do with your decorators?

Best part is... they call me immature, or childish for what I do,

Because you're immature and childish for what you do.

and the biggest one is...

"Normal People don't have violent fantasies"

PFT---HAHAHAHAHAHA!

I see that you didn't actually have a debunk for that.

...Oh, yeah! They really are the pictures of perfection with their idiocies of belittling me and anyone who supports me. Real Mature... NOT.

None of your decorators claim to be perfect. And one of the most immature things about you is that you think you're special. You think that we specifically target you and your followers and nobody else. In fact, you admit your own hatred for the show and fandom, so that actually makes it so you're not even the worst person we've addressed. So get over yourself, because you're not special.

Also, that's a Tu Quo Que fallacy. Also known as the "You Too" fallacy. Basically, it's when you point at someone else and say "they do it too". The reason it's a fallacy is because just because others do it, even if it were true about your accusations towards your decorators, it doesn't make what you do alright. If your decorators are wrong, that doesn't mean that you are in the right. In this case, you're also projecting, which is a form of a false equivocation fallacy.

And they plan to continue to mock me, and still delude themselves into thinking I'm at some "WAR" with MLP. Nah, I just do with MLP like I do with Teen Titans, Digimon, and the rest... I use my fiction to blow steam and see what I prefer.

News Flash: We never actually plan anything against you. All of the mock and ridicule you receive is brought on yourself. In fact, I'd defend you against people who specifically plan it. I know you're too stubborn and obsessive to leave this site. But when someone of an anti-fandom is active on a fandom site like this, you main a target on yourself. You choose to write hatefics. And in doing so, each of those fics are just more targets that you paint onto yourself. For example, I never planned on making a follow-up to my first post. But you chose to address me directly.

Also, by being part of an anti-fandom, though you may not be at "war" with MLP, you are at war with the fandom. Anti-fandoms are definitely (and thank you for providing the definition by the way) conspirators against the fandom. People like me are simply against toxicity. And anti-fandoms are toxic by definition. You say you're doing with MLP what you did with Teen Titans and Digimon 02. That just means that you're equal opportunity toxic. And you actually are at war with those shows, because none of them have actually done anything to you.

And they say I have no right to opinions or to talk about maturity? Nope, they are not as mature as they preach.

Everyone has the right to speak their opinions (depending on what country you live in). But the reason we say you can't talk about maturity isn't because of rights or opinions. It's the fact that you can't actually talk about something if you know nothing about it. That's one of the differences between you and me. You don't even know how to be mature. I can be immature sometimes, but I know how to be mature.

Also, I'm more mature than I preach because the only thing I "preach" about maturity is to be mature. I don't tell you anything that it means to be mature, or that you have to mature a specific way.

Mykan, you are a victim of your own ignorance of maturity. You're not even willfully immature. The only thing I can fault you on is that you're willfully ignorant.

Now let's get into Mykan's artificial strawman quotes. Because it doesn't take a brain surgeon to know that nobody has said any of these things word for word.

"Get off this site and leave the franchise alone."

...No.

This is probably the closest you'll come to a real quote. But anyone who says this doesn't know you well enough to know just how obsessively stubborn you actually are.

"Get yourself some help, get a job, and grow up the way we tell you to!"

...No.

This is a close second. But I'll address why you won't. You're too obsessively stubborn to get the help you need, which is why you need the help pin the first place. Not everyone needs to have a job, and I'm defending it this way because even I hate it when people say that. And you'll never grow up the way anyone tells you because nobody has ever told you how to grow up.

"You want relief... Get yourself laid. Have a drink. Have a smoke."

...Yuck!

I'm pretty sure that even most smokers wouldn't recommend that you have a smoke. If you don't want to drink, that's your prerogative. But the only thing I would say is that if you ever choose to have a drink, drink responsibly (although I don't think that deserves a response of "yuck". As for getting laid... can I assume you're asexual? You do seem to tick the boxes. Specifically, the box that sex isn't appealing to you. I'm not judging if you are. I'd be a hypocrite if I did.


If you think we're done yet, you're wrong. I also want to address a comment that was made. Also, I'm pretty sure I already saw this comment, and that it was also updated when the blog post was. And it comes from wertyui.

"Normal People don't have violent fantasies"

these people who say things like this have suppressed feelings of rage towards others, they're just to chicken shit to admit this
hasn't everyone fantasied about getting revenge on someone in the worst way.?
for example:someone who has wronged you politician/salesman/ex-partner

First of all, there's a difference between fantasies and feelings. Secondly, rage is by definition "violent, uncontrolled anger". Saying someone has suppressed feelings of rage is an oxymoron. I think I've only experienced rage twice in my entire life. As for anger, anyone who says they've never felt angry before is lying. Personally, I know how to control my anger and other emotions. But keep in mind that "control" and "suppress" are not the same thing. But my ability to reason will always surpass my emotions.

Just remember that thoughts and emotions are not the same.

But part of the issue here is the difference between thoughts and fantasies. I'd argue that anyone that claims not to have violent thoughts at some point are lying. But a thought is not the same as a fantasy. People can have thoughts cross their mind. They have no control over that. It just happens. And some of those thoughts can be violent. You can even go farther and indulge those passing thoughts, or even choose to actively think those thoughts for the sake of morbid curiosity. Just by reading this, I probably triggered you to have some kind of violent thought.

Now what makes a fantasy different than any other thought is the relation to wants and desires. For example, when's the last time you fantasized about something you didn't want? Fantasizing is a form of escapism. And nobody would want to escape into a world that you don't want. And that's why normal people don't have violent fantasies. Normal people don't desire for harm to come to others. If you have violent fantasies, that means that you want that violence to happen. And that is why I'm not lying when I say I have never had a violent fantasy. I can have plenty of violent thoughts based on morbid curiosity. But I would never want that to happen in real life, no matter how much I hate someone.

on that subject of philosophy, have you ever watched "my dinner with andre"

No, I have not.


And there you have it. Mykan and one of his minions commenting on what I have to say. I never planned to make this post. I did not go through Mykan's shit with the intent to seek out something to comment on. I was simply looking out of curiosity to see if there was anything new. And then I saw that Mykan directly addressed me. Not by name of course, because he never does. If it were responding to anyone else, I probably would've just ignored it (okay, I probably would've read it, but I wouldn't have made an update to account for it).

Also, is it often that Mykan updates his blog posts in this fashion? Should I feel honored that he did such a rare event just for my sake?! That's so heartwarming! Thank you, Mykan. Or... should I feel insulted that I wasn't good enough to get my own blog post as a response? Was I not even worth a separate blog post and was just tacked onto an already existing blog post? Meh, I guess that would mean I have to try harder next time.

Also, there's a YouTuber that might be able to sue Mykan for copyright infringement by using the name "Scribbler". But I'm not a lawyer.

I haven't actually read the story, so I don't have the full context

And therefore, you have no right to blog about it or the entitlement to a proper opinion until you DO read it.

“Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown-up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.
-C.S. Lewis

So, I’m just asking to be sure, was that quote supposed to be aimed at Lord King Cocoon or DakariKingMykan?

It's not aimed at anyone specific. Reading through this just made me think of it.

I could, but I don't want to. Besides, my blog wasn't addressing the story specifically. It was addressing your blog.


5604071
I usually don't use the term 'adult'. I use the term 'mature' which is different. But that is a good quote nonetheless.

An adult can choose to act childish if they want. But a child is incapable of acting adult since they wouldn't know how to. A child lacks the age to have that level of experience.

A mature person can choose to act immature if they want. But an immature person is incapable of acting mature since they wouldn't know how to. An immature person lacks the experience to have that level of knowledge.

The difference between 'adult' and 'mature' is that 'adult' refers to an age range. 'Mature' is unrelated to age. Though it is expected for an adult to act mature, a child can also be mature. Here's a good quote to go by. "Growing old is mandatory. Growing up is optional." It's a quote I saw on facebook. But it's true.

A weak rebuttal as usual...

The blogs are still ABOUT the fic, and if you don't read the fics (as you stated you didn't and won't) you don't have any idea of what's going on (As you also stated) and therefore (As I stated)What right do you have giving me all this grief over it?

5604249
A rebuttal to an argument has to be stronger than the argument itself. You just didn't give me a high bar to reach.

A blog of a fanfic isn't the fanfic itself. And your reasoning actually helps to support my argument. Because if the blog to the story doesn't provide enough context of the story so that you need to read the story, then that creates a further divide between the content of the story and the content of the blog. A blog about a story isn't the story itself. The more you insist that I need to read the story for context, the more justified I am in asserting that the blog is not the story.

5604077
Ah, okay. Thanks for letting me know.
