All of the Flightless Scootaloo || MLP:FIM

I love Scootaloo, she's one of my favorite characters in the entire show. Time to bully her!
For real though, I love how they've handled her flightlessness, and I'm glad they decided to ultimately confirm that it was a genuine disability. And yes, I do say "confirm," not "imply."
I've seen some people make the claim that just because we've never seen Scootaloo fly, doesn't mean she'll never fly. My best guess is that this is an attempt at staying optimistic. But to me it comes across as willfully ignorant defiance of storytelling techniques, both explicit and implicit, because of a belief that the only way for a disabled character to get a "happy ending" is for them to not be disabled anymore.
I'm not usually so forward about my opinions of this show. Feel free to disagree in the comments, but I can guarantee you that this video is going to be marked as "for kids" so if I was you I wouldn't bother.
Haha funni chickun pone
