Equestria emerges from the Atlantics, threatening to consume Earth. Unable to stop it, humans decide to tear each other apart before the anomaly leaves no trace of them. Suddenly, the catastrophy becomes blessing, as humans receive a unique chance to ascend as superior beings of pure magic, leaving their primitive lives behind.

But not everypony is ready to accept them with open forelegs.

You just posted two chapters of a blatantly misanthropic Conversion Bureau story that depicts ponies as inherently superior beings.

May God have mercy on your fic. Fimfic certainly won't.

7759302 eh, nobody gives enough of a shit to bash these things now

Darn. I was hoping to see a really nice comment storm. It's still a terrible fic, though.

7759335 meh, ill just wait for the next semi-rapey clopfic

bbys always love those

If ponies psychologically wouldn’t have been able to lose their minds, I’d have thought that you are insane! What’s gotten into an infinitely wise and intelligent pony like you

Nightmare Moon.

“I know that humans are primitive and agressive beasts with an insignificant spark of sapience. But it's just a disease, nothing more.
We will cure that disease, Honey. The ponification serum will help them lose their human nature and become who they need to be to live in Equestria. My little ponies will gladly greet and accept them as equals.”

Hahahaha, no.

And with that, I'll say that this is one of those Conversion Bureau stories.

I disagree with the limited telekinesis. A unicorn's telekinesis is only limited by the individual unicorn's magical strength.

Your formatting needs a lot of work:

“Ladies and gentlemen” She spoke softly in a melodic, pleasant voice.

“As I promised, today I shall demonstrate you what a pony body is capable of. For that purpose, I invited three of my friends who kindly agreed to perform a demonstration.”

should be

“Ladies and gentlemen,” She spoke softly in a melodic, pleasant voice, “as I promised, today I shall demonstrate you what a pony body is capable of. For that purpose, I invited three of my friends who kindly agreed to perform a demonstration.”

and sentences like the ones in

“You are free to act as your think, Honey Bun. But I want to warn you - humans are too complicated to make a right decision about them. Please, think twice before using drastic measures.”

She didn’t see the predatory smile appearing on her visitor’s face.

“Don’t worry, Your Majesty. I will think thrice.”

should be formatted so that the actions of active/speaking character are contained within a paragraph, and do not switch to the perspective of another person. Think of it like a movie when the camera switches which character it is showing. In this case because Celestia did not see the action, it should not go in her paragraph, so it should look like this:

“You are free to act as your think, Honey Bun. But I want to warn you - humans are too complicated to make a right decision about them. Please, think twice before using drastic measures.”

Celestia didn’t see the predatory smile appearing on her visitor’s face, “Don’t worry, Your Majesty. I will think thrice.”

Strictly as a matter of personal note, I have never heard anyone say that they will think thrice about something. Also, it is a blatant contradiction for a pony to do anything "predatory" as ponies are herbivores. Furthermore, Celestia is Goddess in Equestria. I really shouldn't have to say more than that, but let me point it out Celestia is not the abstract concept of religion where a person has been told that a god they should believe in has said to do or not do something where a person might feel guilty about doing that something but think "oh well, it doesn't really matter no one is really going to stop me" - No, to ponies Princess Celestia is a walking, talking, living, breathing, avatar of absolute power whose very body extends beyond the physical and she proves this everyday by moving the heavenly bodies at will, so I am hard pressed to believe that a pony who has met her or even a pony who eats bowls of stupid for breakfast would wake up one day and think to themselves, "Gee, I really want an ass whooping from god herself."

"I disagree with the limited telekinesis. A unicorn's telekinesis is only limited by the individual unicorn's magical strength."

Do you also disagree with this?

Delegates lost their tempers in no time, starting to shout at each other, blame other countries, throw insults and venomous questions back and forth. India blamed Pakistan, China blamed Taiwan, South Korea blamed North Korea, United States blamed Russian Federation, The Arab League blamed Israel, Vatican City blamed gays and abortion, African states blamed white colonists…

It was both fascinating and terrifying to watch how usually confident and full of themselves people lost their civilized manners and turned into a bunch of scared, angry kids.

Fascinating, because such drastic changes are very informative and tell a lot about humans’ psychology.

Terrifying, because lives of billions of souls depended on decisions that these furious, clamorous manchilds make.

ahahah holy shit I haven't seen one of these stories in literally years

I mean, this is preachy nonsense, and it's too facile to take seriously. But this takes me way back to when this exact message was a common sight on Fimfiction. It's almost refreshing, especially compared to the more recent cascade of "what if Celestia was interdimensional Hitler BUT IN MY FAVORITE VIDEO GAME."

“As you should know, there are really good reasons, why only creatures with certain physical traits have an upper hoof in evolution and a chance to become sapient.”

Um...

What am I reading? Will someone please tell me what I am reading?? Why would anyone assume physical traits have anything to do with sapience? That makes absolutely zero sense!!

Sapience has to do with brain development through evolution.

How does physical traits fit in that?? Humans developed highly evolved brains because everything else out there was physically superior to them.

I don't even...

Nope.

Humans are superior, Ponies have telepathy but not significant technology advances.

Is this serious...
I mean, if you really intend to express that idea, you shouldn't patronize the reader, it just doesn't work.

7760144 Clearly you don't watch the show if you think Equestrian's technology is insignificant. Yes they lack some tech we consider vital, but do they really lack important tech? Most tech they lack has a magical subsitue, why would they develop technology they don't need? They aren't as violent as us so weapons tech wouldn't be something they developed as extensively. Also I think the whole "Immortal Leader" thing would have an effect, wanting to keep them away from dangerous tech.


Now yes the idea ponies would be smugly superior is laughable, I don't like most of the "ponies are villains" conversion Burea stuff cause it feels too off. I don't think this story is offensive just not good and the author has some silly ideas about sapience.

7760891 I do watch the show, I've seen barely any modern technologies in large quantities. I've stopped watching the show before Season 6.

7760891 As Significant technology, I'm meaning the Automobile, Spacecraft, Rocketry. I have yet to see any major progress in modern weapons development. Due to the Peaceful nature of the Ponies/Equines.

Ponies have scitzo-tech. Steam trains, dirigibles, computers, video games, film, appliances, and electric lights. No cars, why would they have them? Earth pony pulled carriages more that fill the need and provide employment. Why developed cars? And so many technologies are the result of war, a peaceful race wouldn't have nuclear bomb so no nuclear reactors. Medical magic would replace much medical tech. Ponies have early 20ith century tech and some middle and late century tech too, in some ways they are more advanced that we were at that level of cultural development.

....dafuq. I'll pass.

This story is cringy as fuck

Using vids to comment doesn't look like a mature way to express your opinion.

You see, this video sums up what my feelings are for this story.
This story is a cookie-cutter, bland, clíched, conversion bureau story.

8258015
Still you could've write what you wrote just now, to begin with. It's your opinion anyway, and I respect that.

Someone who chooses to only look at the dark side of things, it would seem.
