#mylittlepony - #A ruse by the greeting card industry


A ruse by the greeting card industry

In the most resent episode Discord dismisses Hearts and Hooves day as nothing more than a trick played on consumers to get them to buy things.

While this is a common (and somewhat bitter) opinion many have about Valentine's Day, it doesn't seem to be a popular opinion in Equestria, where even good friends will participate in such holidays.

I'm curious what other holidays you think Discord might dismiss as capitalist driven commercialism?

Do you think he'd dismiss Nightmare Night as a trick, not a treat, of the candy industry? Is Hearths Warming Eve nothing more than a lot of hot air? Is the running of the leaves a ploy of 'the man' to make chubby ponies exercise?

Or do you think it's just Hearts and Hooves day that has drawn his ire? And if so, why?
