at some point the imperial nostalgia's gonna dry up as everyone old enough to remember an empire dies. assuming the decline began with the suez crisis, idk, we might finally have northern powerhouse rail in 2056

this belief is only really prevalent amongst the politically powerful older generation (esp property owning olds) while the younger generation would rather live in a generic western european EU country that just used to be an empire (ala spain)

theory: it's not the british century of humiliation, it's the british century of denial to be humiliated you need to feel embarrassment. our political class in total denial of britain's loss of standing, guided primarily by nostalgia from those old enough to remember the empire

fortunately hasbro is so embarrassingly bad at exploiting its IP that the "pony fandom" is in a pretty healthy place rn. its hardly even a "fandom" anymore, we're just people with a small horse fixation mostly doing our own shit in smaller more organic communities now

s1-s2 of FiM is fundamentally a different show altogether to s8-s9. the only thing they have in common are the lights and sounds tricking "fans" into thinking they are the same show, that kept "fans" watching and buying even when it the story "fans" actually liked had long ended

this has been said by many other people more eloquently before but i want to repeat it: you never liked "franchises" or "IP". you liked stories and art, you like creative works and creators. conceiving of yourself as "a fan of [insert IP here]" gets you exploited

what's the harshest truth about fandoms?

Someone else in another thread already summed this up better than I ever could, by comparing it to Zionism.

@Viva_Escocia @eyuplovely @CounsellingSam a lot of these "dichotomies" can be solved by treating it as part of a system, not an individual action. a global system of terror and exploitation x100 bloodier than the islamic republic. the "who" they're invading doesnt matter, its the system theyre upholding

@eyuplovely @CounsellingSam It’s a real dichotomy many have to wrestle with. I am not a fan of theocratic or one party systems of government but absolutely against foreign interventions and illegal wars. It’s a dilemma many find difficult to understand. I had the same problem when the West invaded Iraq.

@Variety “series that explores the same story from Nazi’s point of view.” If you were in somewhere in aerly 1940s. That’s definitely what we “needed”.
