Post-Fallout Equestria : Episode2 Page11

Security saves Pony's. And Celestia must be saved! 

Oh I have to agree with you it would be odd to have Blackjack just show up and help out. Especially with the end we have for Horizons. I do see Littlepip eventually forcing her way back into the SPP eventually though. And possibly having the support of the NCR Citizens while doing so with the government working against her.

So? Littlepip would do the same to them. I mean, don't you find it weird that when one character with no authorisation whatsoever decides life and death it's a-okay, but when it's an elected official doing it we suddenly get pedant about proper mandates and such? Littlepip in SPP basically put her hoof on a public good that she didn't have more right to than anypony else.
For the NCR, who have a responsibility to protect and serve the ponies who elected them (and thus, unlike Pip, can actually make a claim for representing the will of more than just one pony), it is a normal ambition to try to ensure a resource that all for their citizens', and indeed whole Equestria depends on, in a more reliable and democratic way than leaving it in the hands one pony, who has no proper mandate, is possibly sick or dying, and has a history of questionable decisions and violence.

As a young nation, there are some things the NCR must do, if its (only just created) system intends to be more than a joke. Littlepip can either submit herself to the same rules as everypony else, or acknowledge that she does not actually want a democratic rule. From a naive standpoint, this may seem unimportant, but she actually makes a politically volatile situation by monopolizing SPP tower.

You don't need Postponicaliptica for all of this, even. Nations in real life will use every mean they have to protect important strategic points and resources we their citizens, -demand- that they do so in order to protect us. What makes the difference isn't chiefly the means by which they do it (because violence, propaganda and such are a part of running any state), but true representation - the ability to claim that the officials do what the people want them to do. That to me is what makes the difference between a hero and a vigilante, too. (That the former will act out the will of others even if they differ from her own.)

It doesn't seem to me that king-koder's NCR is particularly cruel or authoritarian though. They make a politically neccessary step but: they try to have Pip understand why it is neccessary and give approval; they use minimal force; they are diplomatic; they are generally shown as grateful and concerned for the well-being of Pip and Celestia. And it doesn't seem like they are necessarily unsuited or incapable, either.
Why does Pip have to be the one to be Celestia's caretaker? That was something she just decided on her own in the first place.
Would Pip not be happier living with Homage, if her health allowed, than isolated in the tower? Also probably yes.

Is there really any way in which this is an unreasonable suggestion that calls for NCR-hatred?
