Several thoughts:
Who hates bronies? I find them hilarious.
Bronies are not hated, they're pitied, ridiculed and the target of exasperation, perhaps, but not hated. The world is a better place when you have things that everyone can laugh at (bronies don't count as people - they're ponies).
Is this like when ugly/fat people yell "You're just jealous of my body!" at anyone who'll sit still long enough to make eye contact? Cause it feels like that.
