I keep re-adding these because whoever keeps deleting them cites the reason as being \\\"inaccurate claims\\\". None of these are inaccurate! They describe the events that \\\'\\\'actually happen\\\'\\\' in the show! I know a lot of people are very fond of this show (I\\\'m one of them, in fact), and some fans are desperate to protect it from all criticism, but that\\\'s no reason to erase the observations of others. This is not a YourMileageMayVary trope, and all the examples listed cite the moral lesson presented in the show and the canon events that break them. There is no reason to delete any of them.
Added Note: Even the justifying edit about how \\\"there was no letter so we don\\\'t know if that was the moral\\\" is pretty flimsy because \\\'\\\'the entire show\\\'\\\' centers on friendship, and since the lessons are explicitly confirmed as a cumulative exercise, the lapses present in any given episode are and should be considered as conflicting with Aesops in the show as a whole, not just the episode in which they occur. Twilight using the power of friendship/magic to fuel her ascension breaks the show\\\'s Aesops because she does it \\\'\\\'behind their backs\\\'\\\' and one of the literal \\\'\\\'elements\\\'\\\' that friendship is built on is \\\'\\\'honesty\\\'\\\'.
