    Minimal similarity to any domesticated animals

    That is a goat with a long tail. They've even got the cloven hooves.

    I guess it has to do with the rise of live-action fantasy. in animation you can draw them as fantastical as you like but in live-action you kinda just have to stick that ice cream cone on that horse, unless you're gonna do it with CGI which comes with its own problems

    there needs to be more traditional unicorns (the ones on the right) in media than "modern" unicorns

    not only do they seem more interesting and original, but i'm sure you can get a "modern" unicorn by just attaching a horn on a horse's [fore]head. not to mention, like another person here said - they are just more whimsical 🥰

    I like that fella on the right. Whimsical creature. A horse is just a horse, of course.

    bourgeois liberals need to make their unicorns hircine and ungrounded, they forget the majesty inherent in the noble horse
