Galvantula, there are a few things to consider about pony fans in general. First of all, the fandom is huge. Thus, you would find a larger number of bad apples. Second, and perhaps more importantly, pony fans have a severe persecuted mentality and become a touch too sensitive about supposed attacks against their show. Third, there are many overzealous pony fans that tend to be rather narrow-minded in their views. They impose such narrow-mindedness even on us fans, arguing against and hating certain things really vocally. Finally, there are many trolls in the pony fandom that irritate even us fans.

I'm sorry you had to experience the idiocy of some fans on Youtube. The Youtube comments section is really the cesspool of the worst aspects of any fandom. If I were to judge based on Youtube commenters, Super Sentai fans would be Sentai-only purists who seem out to proselytize Power Rangers fans, Kamen Rider fans would be kids who want to look more mature than they are, Star Wars fans are narrow-minded and who have never watched beyond Return of the Jedi or The Phantom Menace, comic book fans want 100% comic faithfulness when adapting movies and can never be satisfied, etc.

You would have to find a level-headed website of dedicated fans to see that many pony fans really do try to embody their love and tolerate mantra. Like Matrixbeast said, even Toku fans can be insane, but places like Tokunation prove there are many good apples along with the bad.

That said, however, I won't be strong-arming you to watch it of course. It is my opinion, though, that the first few episodes haven't really kicked things off yet. Still, I do realize liking ponies is still a rather niche thing.
