Sometimes I don't think you understand how this show works, my friend.

They care about humans….. the same way we care about people in other countries. Yeah, they'd be mad if the Diamond tried to kill everyone, and in a general sense they try to be cognizant and not directly harm humans, but at the same time they're not rushing over everytime there's a natural disaster and they're not…

Bismuth was less "murder-revenge spree" and more "free the people at any cost", she hated the elites but she clearly got on with Sapphire so her hatred was directly tied to their oppression of her fellow gems. Her anger always stemmed from the fact that Rose's unwillingness to fight dirty could cost the lives of her…

Humans and their freedom and individuality is tied into Rose's ideas of freedom and individuality. She was inspired by humanity and sought to allow them and gems to both exist in such a way, allowed to grow. The Crystal Gems might be hands off, but their existence and humanity's are intertwined. And the humans are…

The possessives go both ways too, Diamonds are referred to as "my diamond", a little nod to the fact that the feudal system is one of equal service on both ends, at least in theory. That's not to say Pearls aren't though of as things, they probably are, but I think possessives aren't necessarily an indicator of…

Oh, definitely, it's a lot less shady for Ruby to be trying to poof a war criminal than stab a very squishy kid. That doesn't mean that from the outside looking in it's still not pretty terrible to watch, and given what Steven had done for her, and Steven's own admissions that he is not Rose Quartz, it's still not a…

The geometry of it all, those soft swirls, the overlapping shapes of light, their background style is just gorgeous, all the time.

There's a lot of gems Steven is going to need to convince that "sins of the mother" isn't actually how it works. And first he's going to need to explain what a mother is. Basically every Homeworld gem over the age of five thousand is going to need to get given the Talk before he has any hope of getting through to…

SAVE THE RUBIES! SAVE THE RUBIES! SAVE THE RUBIES!

That's how things are measured in Homeworld. Ruby, herself given little autonomy or allowances for personhood, automatically thinks of success in terms of owning other people. It's awful and delightful and yikes, Rebecca Sugar.

Oh, Eyeball. You murderous goof. Don't stab the child, that's a BAD idea.

Your Ameri-centrism is showing, buddy. Normally I wouldn't feed the trolls any more, but here I have some things to say. Yeah, every society has bad patches, and things that are regrettable, because humanity is a work in progress. Everything is a work in progress. Society is constantly growing, changing, to fit the…

The march of progress is a horrible one, yes, but justifying imperialism is never the solution. The struggle to better ourselves both morally and scientifically is a constant one. Besides, the world is objectively a hell of a lot better than it was several hundred years ago in terms of mortality, overall life, because…

Look buddy, this is Revolution 101. The fight can't start with the bourgeois, otherwise the entire struggle is instead yet another power machination of the elites. Freedom is not won by a merciful monarch but by the concentrated efforts of the oppressed lower classes. The struggle must start from humble origins and…

We know multiple Rubies make one big Ruby, and a Sapphire and a Ruby make a Garnet, but what does a Sapphire and two Rubies make? A really Garnet-y Garnet?

Worse, in a background shot she can be seen mouthing something at Jasper, something the cleverer fans have decided might be "I love you." Eyeball/Jasper, the truest ship.

Pearl copies outfits, most likely she shifted herself into the first flight outfit she remembered way back when in the Rebellion era and just kept it, Diamond aside. After all, why would a Pearl have a flight suit to begin with?

Not researched whatsoever, but remember that episode where Pearl is looking at Shards and then they escape? Secret Team, I think? What are the chances of those being the shards of Pink Diamond?

They're very clearly married. That doesn't mean I'm going to stop shipping Amethyst with Peridot of course, gems don't have to be constrained.

Worse, it gives him time to think about it on his own and have ideas, rather than just getting the truth right away. The mind of a kid fearing the worst can come up with some awful theories.
