Nicely articulated, if not a bit heavy read.

If they included Derpy in the show without naming her, just about no one would complain. And even if they named her I doubt we would be seeing that much of the original 10 people who wrote angry letters about her. I've heard social justice warriors on tumblr have now made a thing of being offended by people using words like stupid, idiot, crazy, nuts and invalid. Derp seems to have fallen off their radar of random words to pretend are offensive.

The best thing Hasbro could do would be to just keep showing Derpy in the background, and most everyone would be happy. And anyone who is shallow enough to be offended by her just being there is no better than a racist being offended by seeing a black person in a movie.
