I’m still kinda pissed that those MLP Funko Pop NFTs are even a thing. Like I’ve said before, I’m not the biggest fan of Pop figures (I think some look fine, good even, but most just look kinda bland and samey, while the ones that look bad are BAD.).
For most of the characters released as part of the Pop NFTs, it’s not really much of an issue: there’s plenty of figures for Rarity, Applejack, Luna, Chrysalis, Maud, Spike and Sunset (even excluding EqG). Hell, even Daybreaker has a figure (the XXRay figure from Mighty Jaxx). Yet these are the first official figures (that I know of, anyway) for Twilight’s The Last Problem design and King Sombra. What. The. Hell.

I’m having a hard time recalling toll booths in the show.
Regardless those depend of the owner, is just that the usual owner is the state so…well, you basically pay for maintaining the road at least in theory to the government, often while they hire a third company to do the real building while they remain as the owner, like when you hire someone else to fix your home.

I mean, in Trade Ya! it unintentionally showcases why money is necessary: trying to trade with the old system of exact exchange is rather awkward on the long run.
Plus you don’t need a looooong explanation for that: the towns were connected and people used golden bits to buy, is not that kind of a show yet in its minimalism it is frankly enough to understand Equestria well… has a market, who gives. Not to mention how many time the heroes don’t get stuff for granted and ponies expect something back like coins for a service or product.

That’s not my intent at all. In fact, what I said has nothing to do with fans coming up with their own ideas.
I don’t think there’s anything wrong with fans coming up with their own ideas, but I also don’t think one should give a blank slate credit for not having a flaw. That would be like congratulating Newborn Cuties for not mishandling the topic of drug abuse.
Like, supply chains are not an integral part of G4’s lore, and there’s maybe one episode that’s tangentially about economics of scale.

I wouldn’t phrase that last point in that way if I were you, bud cause it seems along the lines of “Fans coming up with their own ideas on how the world works is wrong because the writers offered them a blank slate to work out of”

The other thing is that the numbers from Pipp’s “Socialblade” don’t really gel with the population numbers.
Having said that, the tech does serve a clear thematic purpose, and G4 being more believable is more because of plausible deniability, rather than anything the writers consciously thought of.

Being conscious of subjects like supply chains and economies of scale really makes it difficult to take seriously the tech that there is in G5. If humanity got reduced to three small cities that don’t communicate nor trade, we’d be back in the pre-industrial age. Even if all STEM knowledge was kept intact, the problem would be in technology becoming unaffordable.
G4 is far more believable in that regard.

If the one below is the one you’re referring to, then I’m thinking her being black is not what upset people. Not that it’s any excuse at all to bully anyone over, but blaming it on that one singular thing is like saying people didn’t like a cake just because of the sprinkles and not mentioning the half kilo of rock salt used to bake it.
TBH without context I’d have assumed this was racist troll art from /mlp/
Meanwhile the artist of the image below was harassed off twitter for not making Pinkie “black enough”
I imagine everyone understands now why Hasbro kept with pony colors for Equestria Girls
There is, and sadly never will be no happy medium. 😔
