Oh boy, here we go. Season 8 of the ride! The paint is chipping and the wheels are falling off but it's still running, held together by sheer autism.
So now we have a bigger map and a D I V E R S E new cast. All the better to teach the kids that borders are evil and that everyone's simultaneously unique and exactly the same. It seems that the series has veered from universal moral messages to a decidedly more ideological flavor. At this stage the only question I have is will Hasbro manage to make us hate Equestria so much for the last two seasons that we'll be glad to see it nuked to make way for G5?
Globalism is Magic!
Enjoy!

Some of those synopses actually sound really good, like "Fake It 'Till you Make It," "Grannies Gone Wild," "Horse Play," "The End In Friend," "Yakity-Sax," and "On the Road to Friendship." I don't know how that is going to work out, since the best Season Seven episodes were the ones that sounded the worst. Who knows?

^this
The leaked episodes where all bad, the premise for this season is hackneyed, the characters are required to act out of character by the premise Is RD going to be a full time wonderbolt AND a full time teacher? And more pressingly, why would anyone hire the dumbest pony in the country to teach anything, let alone let the one that tried to sell a friend into slavery for a comic, teach friendship of all things. Not that any of the rest of the mane 6 don't have better things to do than play at being school teachers and on top of that, there's the declining quality of the show.
Sure we've had some good episodes, but the number of bad episodes per season to good ones has been growing at an alarming rate.

Okay, that's a real issue. Imagine Applejack spending Autumn grading papers when harvest season is happening at Sweet Apple Acres. Imagine Rarity putting aside her fame and fashion empire to take a grade school teaching job. Pinkie Pie is a McWage-slave, and Fluttershy is a NEET, but the rest of them have some real shit to do that is not looking after other people's kids.

Lets be more specific.
The 6 students he objected to where:
<A dragon
Big firebreathing and in nearly all cases we've seen in the show, violently antisocial.
Spike really is nothing like normal dragons.
Hand picked by the current dragon lord, so presumably well connected politically, back home.
<A griffon
This one is the least objectionable, since at least some griffons get along with ponies. Case in point, Gustave le Grande. Still, most of them are assholes and they live in a shithole. Not a hell of a lot they can offer Equestria…
Presumably related to gilda and personally invited to the school because of family connections to RD through Gilda.
<A yak
The only student who was actually cute, if her one dimensional personality was a annoying. Most yaks are belligerent bullies who have BEEN AT WAR WITH EQUESTRIA during the shows running.
She is a daughter of the ruling prince.
<A hippogriff
The only student who on paper could belong in the school. Too bad shes more ADHD than pinkie with none of the humour or likeability.
I don't remember, but wasn't she like the niece of the queen or something?
<A changeling
Didn't these guys invade and attack the princesses TWICE! They assaulted Canterlot what would be only a few years earlier and must have kidnapped thousands of ponies over the years. Gee, I wonder why someone might not like the idea of giving one of them access to royalty from half the world and free access to all the information about Equestria's defences they could ever want…
Also, personally picked by the rainbowcockroach in charge, so presumably has political connections there.
This school isn't promoting diversity, its an exclusive upper class boarding school for the 1% of the 1%. A place for the most powerful handful of families on the planet to send their next generation of leaders to be groomed for the big leagues.
At Equestria's expense of course…

It seemed a lot more like it was just an experiment with several species that the ponies had just opened relations with. (Save for Gryphons, as stated) Making it more of a first year cultural exchange program. In which case the only takers would be those specifically chosen by those involved, known and trusted individuals, which at school age is going to be mostly young family.
As far as being on Equestrias dime, this is hardly like some kind of Pony UN (why couldn't we be getting that instead?) where a country has to pay for tons of security and sweep up after diplomatic bullshit, it's a boarding school.

The series is on it's last legs so you can obviously see they are running out of ideas, if you saw the leaks you can this season is bland at best.

Watched it, comes down to 'immigrants are our friends and even when they literally put us in danger, we should fuck the rules and just friend them even harder!'
Exactly the kind of leftist drivel you can expect from the current people in charge.
Also hilarious was that the first thing I asked myself was 'Why do they need to be accredited in the first place if there's no punishment for not being accredited?' Then that's what happens.
We're told the eeeeevil shadowy EEA has authority above the princesses, then Celestia sticks up for Twilight, and Twilight wins anyway.
Even better, it canonizes the movie, which featured an outside force literally trying to enslave and destroy their lives and country, so Neighsayer's fears are 100% justified and plausible, even if you ignore the many other times threats have occurred from outside Equestria.
Good god it was retarded. This is why leftists are literally cancer; they destroy everything they touch with suicidal ignorance, if they get their way. They need to be shot, out of a cannon, into the sun.

Its supposed to be inclusive, diverse and for everyone, its just that its being writers room is full of elitist leftwing regressives who are so busy virtue signaling they aren't even paying attention to what is actually going on in their story.
That's also how the list of races that aren't welcome got so long.
Ever wondered why, when there's so many cows living right next to ponyville, there's almost none of them in the town? Why there isn't a single calf in Cheerilees classroom?
Same goes for donkeys and mules, except at least Cranky and Matilda are allowed inside city limits.
They even forgot to invite zebra's.
But hey, at least they got all the powerful political families. Because its more important to help immigrants and special interest groups than your fellow citizens.
You get this shit IRL too, with SJW's fighting muh soggy knees'n shit and "racism" against anyone who isn't white, because you can't be racist against white people, everyone knows that while completely ignoring the plight of the homeless and poor people in general (unless they have the right skin color).
>where a country has to pay for tons of security and sweep up after diplomatic bullshit
Like when the students go missing, nearly sparking a world war, since all of them are friends of or related to foreign rulers?
Besides, do you think that big fancy school was free? I have no doubt it was paid in full by Equestrian tax payers.

Is there anything we can do at this point? At all? G5 will likely be infested with, if not the same people, people with similar mindsets. Petitions obviously wouldn't work, the only thing that they care about is their investors and toy sales, the former which are braindead and probably support this, while the latter won't be affected substantially enough to give them the message. As has been said, they're all too retarded to think past the extreme short term. That dutch guy exists, but there's practically zero chance of him ever being professionally involved. The only straightforward thing I can think of is for some rich anon to buy a ton of stock.

Do you just not know what accreditation is anon? It's ok if you don't, most people don't have to deal with it.
Accreditation is nothing more than saying an organization lives up to certain requirements and codes of conduct that have been adopted by an organization. There are tons of unaccredited schools and organizations out there that function just fine. Twilight just went full tism about it because it was 'the rules' and came from a book. It just means the school has to prove itself via its own actions. And with a princess in charge there is little need for an EEA seal to display as a crutch for recognition.
Also, considering the school basically prevented a massive world war, it's already done a lot to help out the nation.
The only real bullshit of the episode is there being no zebra at the school.

No, there's nothing we can do. Just watch, as something you loved, already degraded since season 2, gets buggered like a corpse at a necrophiliacs orgy, by a bunch of the most hateful people to have ever existed.
Unless, like you say, one of us became extremely rich and bought Hasbro and forced the show to be the way we would like.
If I became a billionaire I'd do it, but I don't see that happening any time soon.
>>309770
I didn't entirely know what accreditation meant in the real world, past some form of governmental backing, and am aware that not all schools are accredited by the same agencies.
But, Celestia makes a big deal about all educational institutes in Equestria being accredited by the EEA, setting it up as being important to be accredited. Then, never explains what the alternative or punishment for not being accredited is.
With each season Celestia becomes less and less powerful or useful
>Also, considering the school basically prevented a massive world war, it's already done a lot to help out the nation.
No, the school/Twilight/diversity students caused a potential world war in the first place. If the school never existed, no war would have happened. Once the problem occurred and the diversity idiots ran off to hide in the old castle, then a potential world war might have happened, and was prevented when Twilight goes full Antifa and says "screw the rules and laws and the EEA I do what I want!". Which is retarded. The antagonist was defeated because someone said "I'll make my own laws" and receives no punishment.
Surely he's going to reappear and do something in the usual 2 part finale that will threaten the school again, but that will be thwarted and he'll be magic'd away as per usual and/or reformedbrainwashed, along with the fact that he was 100% justified in his beliefs.
The Storm King literally invaded Equestria and almost succeeded in enslaving them all, and then the students literally cause damage to the school and put ponies in harms way. He was 100% justified, but because this show is written by Leftists who hate escapism, Neighsayer is shown as the villain.
He was 100% justified, and is, apparently, the villain.

It seems like you watched the show, but you seem to ignore kind of big sections of what happened in order to support your narrative.
Celestia never made a big deal about the EEA, she simply stated that it was a board that made up the rules of how to run a school for ponies doing what they're best at. Twilight simply began focusing on the approval of an oversight committee because there was a rulebook involved.
The plot rides on a rather common problem with new types of schools. The attempt to apply old standards to new curriculum. In universe the EEA has guidelines for Unicorn Magic, Pegasi Weather Manufacturing, and Earth Pony Cultivation. The friendship school is more akin to a psychology and sociology department and is basically trying to function with Trade School oversights. This is something even brought up in the musical number where each character begins with the 'by the book' setup for their class and quickly adapts it to better suit their subject.
Seperately,
>Also, the five non-pony students didn't integrate. They all gathered together and formed their own little gang with 1 token pony. Any one notice that? Unintentional little bit of truth slipped in there.
If you are going to take the entire premise of the students being there in the first place, to learn another culture and how to get along with others, as well as directly ignore all the times they directly state that their opinions over the other species are changed for the better because of their interactions then you don't really have a point. You're just trying to inject your pet political ideology into the subject, and as such you're just going to selectively consider certain facts, twist others and ignore other parts just to demonstrate your loyalty to the cause. That kind of shit ruined Marvel, would you please stop?

No, people like you ruined Marvel. /liberty/ got overrun with leftists because they were too principled to get rid of them, and the same applies to everything you dumb cockmunchers get your grubby little hands on. They premise is painfully obvious shoehorned lefty political garbage. You go 'Don't inject politics into it', while letting your slightly more preferred ideology inject politics into it. Take a hike.

What about the episode was shoehorned lefty political garbage? Could you put up some particular points of the episode that we could discuss? Because if you didn't really understand what accreditation is, maybe its more examples of some of the nuance of the situation slipping by. Or better yet, now knowing a little more about what accreditation is now and the major conflict being more of Twilights internal need to 'play by the rules' than any kind of legally supported ban, why not watch the episodes again. See if it helps give you a fresh take on the situation.

Overall it's a great episode. The character interactions were fun. With the vets of the series turning in their normal goal and the new characters offering some interesting new dynamics. The animation took a step up, I'm liking their use of background/foreground blur. And the dialogue is woven pretty well to set things up and resolve them.
Can't wait for more episodes.

Shouldn't have come back for this. I don't think there's anything redeeming about it. Almost every word and deed were in service of a cringeworthy leftist multiculti message, leaving any semblance of an interesting story by the wayside. Characterization? There's no focus on the Mane 6 anymore, and each one of the vast ancillary cast felt incredibly stilted thanks to pitiful writing and voice acting, including the rebooted Mane 6 (who will obviously be the heroes in the S8 finale). 0/10, could not suspend disbelief, time to let G4 die.

As much as I like the idea of seeing the main cast as teachers, the students were entirely unlikable. None of them had any redeeming features whatsoever and were entirely obnoxious cunts. The students had zero interest in being there, they lied, caused a significant amount of danger, and were hostile towards everyone. It's going to be a very painful season if we're stuck watching the girls bend over backwards to accommodate a forgettable replacement cast for the sake of propping up a moral.
