Moral of the Story - Make New Friends But Keep Discord (Patreon)

Greetings, Today I'll be examining the lesson demonstrated in "Make New Friends But Keep Discord." An episode that demonstrated what kind of person is likely to grow jealous or possessive of their friends, the consequences that ensue as well as how we should handle that type of behavior when we find ourselves on the receiving end of it. Consider the story of many bronies; a lonely person leading a destructive life is inspired through ponies to pursue positivity, leading them to a better future. Friendship is Magic has had that effect on a considerable portion of the fandom. But that’s usually where the story ends. Discord’s behavior in Three’s A Crowd, Twilight’s Kingdom and Make New Friends But Keep Discord is a good representation of what comes after that ending. Whether or not this can be avoided rests on one’s ability to self-reflect and make sure that they don’t fall into these behavioral patterns.
