I see a lot of people who have had the show soured due to bigoted or rabid fans, it's sad that such a community has risen out of a show about friendship and understanding. If it's not the core reason, it only motivates people tired with the repetitiveness of the show to drop it.

Yeah. I was watching some Tales episodes, and one of them was "Sweetheart's Birthday" where the solution was Lancer locking Bright Eyes, Melody, Patch, and Clover in the same with Teddy and essentially saying "You don't need to like each other, but you need to at least get along with each other for Sweetheart's sake." When it was over, I thought to myself "We'd never get that kind of nuance from Friendship is Magic. No one is ever allowed to be friends with anyone who isn't pro-Mane 6 and those that aren't converted must be ridden out of town on a rail."
Also the fact that every villain either disappeared completely, or if they returned had to be stripped down and remade into a friend rather than an antagonist. Like you can't exist if you oppose the majority...
I've been feeling "meh" lately about the toys and merch. So I'll enjoy the parts I do enjoy, and move on from the parts I don't.
