Some of the ponies suffered a worse fate though, “On the first day of the month, rats gathered on doorsteps & spat out only the bitter manes” (Harvey 9-10), and the people did nothing to help. As long as people don’t have to directly deal with things they are fine.

She ate as fast as she could so that she can go out of the room after lunch. A crowd of bullies, with mostly dark green and gray eyes, looking harshly at Goldie slowly gathered around her, they were laughing and making fun of how she was eating, where she was sitting and her appearance.
