Starlight's escape screams "You haven't seen the last of me!" I'm sure she has bigger and better plans. What the buck was up with that train stop? There's no proper train station, or even a platform. The mane six are just dropped off in the middle of a barren wasteland. The train then has to either back up or slam into a barrier. And why don't we have a proper "confused" smilie?

Considering how vindictive she was, I get the impression Starlight didn't have a guiding philosophy beyond "Look out for number one." She comes across like she came up with the cutie mark removal spell just because she couldn't stand the thought of other ponies being better than her, then she made up that bogus philosophy after the fact to justify it. That sounds exactly right. What the buck was up with that train stop? There's no proper train station, or even a platform. The mane six are just dropped off in the middle of a barren wasteland. The train then has to either back up or slam into a barrier. It's a symbol, for end of the line *ominous music*And why don't we have a proper "confused" smilie? I shall look into it! Also isn't it great to be talking about new pony again?

It is.
By the way, I kind of wish people would stop saying that the town was communist. It seems like a really thoughtless statement a lot of people are making.

It's more Harrison Bergeron than anything.

Yeah communist isn't quite the right description but I can see why people immediately think of it in this situation.

I get more of the impression of kind of New Age religious cult honestly with the whole shedding away of your individuality to join the harmonious unity kind of stuff.

That is a more accurate description yes.

It does have some totalitarian vibes though.

I love how it's only been a day and we have three pages of discussion on these episodes.

In retrospect, one of the ponies in the village should have kept the same mane- and tail-style even after they got their cutie mark back. "What? This is a good look for me!"

Yeah that would be funny. What was the name of that town Starlight said she 'acquired' the staff of sameness from again?
