That's what I find so amazing. It's like the "haters" were simply waiting for something to get outraged about. Like they had nothing better to do than get pissed at something, and poor Derpy became their target. From what I can gather, the bronies who do have mental disabilities didn't even think Derpy was meant to have a disability herself. She was just a klutz, and a funny one at that. The "haters" blew this so grossly out of proportion its simply insulting. As her name suggests, her entire existence stems from a mistake. An animation error. A DERP. And she became popular and her look was permanently changed to reflect the fanbase following. We never assumed, hinted or even thought she had a mental disability. She was just a funny little in-joke to the older audience.
