The moral of this episode: "BUCK modern music." And the pacing was a bit off.
Otherwise, it was pretty good. I just found the implied Lady Gaga hate kind of...weird. "If these fans of Lady Gaga & co just heard acoustic, they'd realize it's way better than anything else ever and all music employing technological innovations is FAKE MUSIC for LIARS." :P

It's foreshadowing of the finale. Time travel ensues!

Many in this fandom likely prefer the alternative. ;)

Teaser pics aren't for informing people, they're purely for building hype. This means that the teasers will be exactly as spoilery as the writers think they should be to get people excited. The same is true for pretty much everything on TV/film.

Nah, this one won't have Skyla. This one will have the reveal that Cadance is "expecting". The birth will come either in the finale, the next season's premier, or tucked in a seemingly insignificant episode about a class election.

Oh, unless that was just a response to "I'm so triggered", of course. I assumed not because it would be kind of unintuitive to call someone a Social Justice Warrior because they posted making fun of Social Justice Warriors. If that is the case, though, I apologize for jumping the gun (though I think I do still have to question your logic path). :P

Oh my god.

That's not social justice. I know this community can't stand Tumblr and stuff, but that's, like, the literal opposite of social justice.

Protip: People who try to support social justice are generally not inclined to object to gay characters on the grounds of them being "inappropriate". Hell, we actually regard the idea that gay characters are "inappropriate" as vastly more offensive.

If Magnum is just complaining because of the PG-13 tag, on the other hand (and rereading their posts, that's seeming fairly likely), that's not social justice, either. Social justice isn't about keeping everything kid-friendly. PG-rated and R-rated works can be offensive or progressive just like kids' stuff can be. "Soccer moms" was closer, as might "scared Bingo-playing grannies", if we want to get the cliche right. :P

Even people who think "Social Justice Warriors" are ruining the internet usually object to things social justice is actually about. If you don't like it, complain about Zoe Quinn, or trigger warnings, or calls for diversity, or complaints about stereotypes. But at least complain about things that are relevant to social justice, okay? Don't just pigeonhole in the term next to other things you don't like.

It's like calling Donald Trump a stormtrooper: Sure, nobody likes stormtroopers, and nobody likes the honorable Trump, but combining the two still isn't exactly accurate.

Oh god someone is cutting out our insides and slicing up the rest of us to make a pie!

Help I'm being censored! Only arresting Zoe Quinn for high treason can save me now. :(
