I hope this happens. I cry every time I think about poor Cozy’s horrible fate.

Fuck off with the “real life” defense. Kids are innocent. Even the ones that light their schools on fire or kill people or whatever. It’s all innocent, because they are children. Are their actions horrible?! Sure, but we as a society due tend to favor reformation in these cases, giving them psychiatric help and therapy. There’s no guarantee they’ll ever be able to be integrated back into society, but only an evil person would say “lock them up.” Fuck no, kids are not responsible for their own actions and need to be nurtured into better people in any way possible.

The very fact that this godawful shitty-ass lesson could be interpreted as applying to real life is why I hate it so much. There is no such thing as an evil child, only a society that failed them. In 100% of these cases, the kids just have a mental condition that needs to be treated. They don’t deserve to die over it.

Please never have kids if you make this argument about real life.

And?! She still deserves a second chance. Twilight was too evil to let her have one because she’s a crazy person that loves to watch kids die.

@Ridleylash
This was already pointed out below, but you don’t even watch the show if you don’t know that your two examples both rejected redemption at first and only eventually accepted it because of the love they were shown.

You’d think a fucking four year-old might be deserving of some of that same love in a show for little girls, but apparently the writers wanted to go out making sure the target demographic knew how much they hated them. That’s the only thing that makes sense to me.

They did it in the series finale, Discord said “together forever” and they were nowhere to be see in the epilogue. It’s not a temporary time out, the final thing the writers left us with was the insane idea that the Mane Six either tortured a little girl either to death or tortured her for all eternity. This was the show’s ending.

@Background Pony #1A80
No, all I wanted was an ending that actually felt even remotely similar to the actual show. Instead the writers thought it’d be cool to be edgelords and kill a kid because they’re way-too-online and read every single tweet and comment telling them to stop reforming villains.

Your original point about fans bitching about the characters being reformed was almost valid. The problem is that the overly insecure writers decided to listen to those people instead of trying to write the best ending. They also went to the Rian Johnson school of “Unexpected = good”. Sometimes a nice well-executed ending that anyone with a brain could see coming a mile away is legitimately the best approach.

This episode made the Season 6 finale completely non-canon. Starlight believed that The Pony of Shadows could be changed for no real reason whatsoever, just because she trusted in the better angels of his nature. She knew she could fix him. In this one, she cheered on the death of a toddler just because she was a horrible guidance counselor to her and allowed her to turn absolutely evil.

Sheesh Calling Twilight evil is complete strectch. Yes the thing with her and rest of cast is very problematic with the whole hipocrisity and to some degree coruption, but still, beside Twilight was actually sad that they didn’t changed for better and of all characters didn’t cheered after the stone thing.

You people care about this series way too much.

@Background Pony #1A80
Those are different people. I’ve always maintained that the fans who were against redemption were the worst part of the fanbase. It’s like being a Veggietales fan and begging the writers to stop talking about religion. Like, you’re missing the point if you really fail to see that redemption is a fundamental theme of the show. Stop generalizing us as if we’re all the same people.

@Joshua
LOL! What kind of rule would that be? No, the rules say nothing like that.

It’s just a kids show bro, why do you care if the writing is shitty

And there you have it. Hey kids, if you’re under 18 you can do whatever the hell you want. User account sez so, so it must be true.
