Starlight Glimmer first appears in the season five premiere as the founder and leader of a mysterious village in which every resident has given up his or her cutie mark.
As the leader of this village, Starlight has the philosophy that "true friendship" comes from being equal—no more or less talented than another—and that having special talents of any kind only leads to disharmony. To this end, Starlight uses a magical artifact called the Staff of Sameness to remove her followers' cutie marks and replace them with equal signs.

Yes, that's Starlight Glimmer, the pony who ran a communist cult in an unnamed town in the mountains in the far reaches of Equestria.
Later on, she used time travel to destroy Equestria several times over.

Toothpaste horse's dystopian village wasn't a terribly accurate portrayal of communism, because it was really more of a cult and an homage to "Harrison Bergeron".
well like within Marxist theory the erasure of individual difference and discouragement of exercising one's skills would normally be considered a form of alienation from one's labour, i would think
but i think it's what people in the West typically regard communism to be
i wouldn't expect communists to consider Harrison Bergeron an accurate representation of their ideals, but it's clearly a work of satire
Hello, I am the only kid in my class who admires Comrade Lenin and Chairman Mao. If you're one of the few teenagers who DOESN'T think counterrevolutionary propaganda like Animal Farm disproves Marx, reblog this post.

I'll reblog YOUR FACE, communist scum! To my good friend Senator Joseph "Joestar" McCarthy!

Yeah, I was kind of disappointed watching that episode after seeing her season 6 episodes where she talked about her evil past enslaving ponies. The brainwashing was pretty creepy, but I just sort of assumed she was making them all work in the pony mines or whatever after taking their talents.

The shark-jumping thing with Twilight's ascension was pretty overstated. S4 was pretty good, and the later half of S5 was some of the strongest writing they've had.

Season 3 was boring as fuck but still
Though I've never watched ponies in a legit manner so I'm not really sure if I have the right to say so.
The castle doesn't even look like a train station either >:/
