Yeap, Homeworld not only has causated war, war-crimes, other things related with war, property invasion, violation of gem rights, workers with no health insurance and intergallactic jaywalking, they are also ecoterrorists. Modfying the enviroment with no care about the damage they can cause. Sure, those humans have got used to the changes, but still.....

I want to know about the thing with Africa and Brazil! How do you break off a whole chunk of a continent and stick it onto another one.

You gotta believe me when I scare you away, all that I wish for is that you would stay

I think they were trying to alter Earth in such away that all the land mass would connect to form Pangaea...again. Then they ended up destroying most of Russia in the process.

"Why in Steven Universe the canadian flag is green rather than red? "

why Canadian flag is red to being with?

"Why Kansas is the new hollywood there "

Because all the liberals and jew move thereevil grin

"Why Russia is so deformed? "

Homeworld is russaphobe?

"Why nobody in Beach City noticed that Steven is 14 years old? "

Because so far, Steven is rather short and act like a child, even my reaction was "Bullshit" when I hear it

"The city is usually attacked on a regular basis and by the next episode everything in the city is fine."

to be fair, CG contain the worst so is not a big deal

"Why Pearl is flatchested?"

So we can make fun of her, suffering is funtongue

"Why Greg lives in a van? "

Didnd CG kick him out of the house?

"Why Lapis Lazuli have no shoes? "

Shoes are to mainstrain

"What about Pink Diamond and White Diamond? "

White is off screen so far and Pink diamon got the stalin treatment.

[up][up]if that is the case, it show the kind of power homeworld have.

really the more time is spend exploring homeworld, the more sound like weird mix of the eldar, the vulcan and sayian in a weird mix.

I just hope the Homeworld empire have some Star Wars vibes. I liked how the villanous empire was in those movies.

[up]I dont know, aside for the Ruby squad and Yellow dio, everything about homeworld has been creepy: the force fusion, YD theme, the show really mange to highlight how batshit powerfull they where hundred of year before.

Unfortunately Implications? Leon Trotsky?

That's not really a connection I was going for...butts okay.

They're not really evil, they just want to bring connectivity back to the world.

[up][up][up][up]Well, naturally that kind of villanous empire would be creepy, specially because "Witchhunt interrogations"(nobody in Homeworld gave a damm if Lapis was even a Crystal Gem or not), racism and class distincion (Pearls are slaves, Peridots are technicians, Rubies are red shirts, Quartz are warriors, the list goes on..), cult to a personality ("The Diamonds are the most perfect things" anyone?), ammoral experiments on living beings(the cluster and forced fusions), Hypermilitarization (They created a lot of weapons), the negatives qualities of the imperialism (conquer another world, don't care about the locals), dehumanization of the innahitanst (Peridot was a bit of a Straw Vulcan and social incompetent, Jasper was an horribly violent warrior) and tainting the image of somebody because the history is writen by the winners (the Crystal gems in the eyes of homeworld are the villains) are real things that had happenend before. Of course this is a kid's show, so is a discret "Problems of the real world at large scale showed in subtle ways, IN THE SPACEEEEE, WITH MAGICAL GIRLS GIMMICKS, FOR KIDS"

[up]Lapis was more a casualty that homeworld give not shits that anything else, when we see rastagem we will get answer about it

"naturally that kind of villanous empire would be creepy"

Maybe but is a thing of impact, with Homeworld I feel uneasy and just asking, what the fuck is wrong with them

Even them I cannot do other thing but admire the things they build, the spire, sky arena...in way I kind understand why Peridot would workship the diamonds, they are good at showing how awsome they are(which is why that episode and the next one are my favorite of season 2)

Pearl is flat-chested because giving Noodle People breasts looks terrible. She'd looked like one of the Debbies in The Oblongs. Although none of the other gems but Rose and Rainbow Quartz have breasts either.

And the Siberia Ocean was made by the early stages of Hostile Terraforming. The beginning of the colony graphic showed it growing even more before the oceans disappeared.

Yesterday, I felt that if there is a Pink Diamond, she should have the nickname Blood Diamond. I thought this was cool, until I realized that you can't say "blood" in children's shows. And then I realized that Gems don't bleed.

So, that idea's scuttled.

You can say blood in a childrens show...you just can't show it, or a large amount.

Usually they just say bleeding, but is whatever.

Blood diamond also isn't a name for red / pink diamonds. It's slang for a diamond trade in Africa, that rebel fighter groups used, so they could buy guns to kill innocent people with.

Ergo, using it as a nickname because it sounds cool would probably get them charged for insensitivity by the court of public opinion.

I think some of the differences in geography and history are just to highlight that this is not our Earth more than anything the Gems did

wild mass guess CG longstanding clout with Mayor Dewey keeps truant officers from checking on Steven. Note that the Dewey's have been kept in power by the CG since before the founding of the USA.

It's a shame that "Let's introduce shocking twists that will be undone in a couple months!" is the primary strategy for today's superhero comics.
