A thread to discuss My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and the tie-in media.
All of the usual forum rules
apply. In addition, please remember that the thread is discussing a kids' show, and it's primarily focused on the work itself, not the fanfic — in particular, we don't want to see lewdness creeping in.

Do you guys think there was a Trottergate scandal at some point in equestrian history?
http://h0useb0und.tumblr.com/Watergate was about spying on political opponents, right?
I doubt there's much room for political opposition in a monarchy...
Birthright: an original web novel about Dragons, the Burdens of Leadership, and Mangoes.I doubt it, given that Celestia has basically been running the country herself for hundreds of years and apparently has a ridiculously high approval rating.
Reaction Image Repository@Kegi: There is always room for politicking. Even in an Absolute Monarchy. That or Celestia never went past Medium Crown Authority for some reason.
I'm sure there's room for it, the question is whether it would actually be anything near the scale of the actual Watergate scandal.
Reaction Image RepositoryI know it's from Dune. I meant where was it referenced in the show?
Also, from what I've seen, the Dune movie was stupid. But I guess movies tend to be a lot more famous than books.
Blind Final Fantasy 6 Let's Play@Yeller: It's a Freman thing that the Bene Gesserit culturally engineered into their ritual. A worm is drowned in water, making a toxic spice concentrate, then a Mother Superior purifies it and makes it consumable with body chemistry hax.
The three finest things in life are to splat your enemies, drive them from their turf, and hear their lamentations as their rank falls!I know. I did read the books (well I never finished Chapterhouse Dune). I was asking whether it was referenced in the show.
