[up]Does that excuse the Diamonds through? Multiple genocides, fusion experiments and dictatorship quckly got forgotten and forgiven because they can't beat them?

Not really but what the hell are they gonna do about it?

There is no outside force that can be used to punish the Diamonds or "bring them to justice" or what have you.

You just can't. You're shit outta luck.

Best case scenario is they're convinced to go make things right and repent and repair the damage they've caused as best they can of their own volition.

They could get poofed and bubbled.

Yeah I’m super uncomfortable with the idea that the the heroes are going to end up making nice with the people who laid waste to whole planets.

I mean what is this ? DBZ ?

I doubt a Bubble could permanently keep them locked up, and reforming the Gems empire takes precedence over punishing them, because their abscence could lead to far worse, or even unseen White Diamond cracking down even harder on keeping their unhealthy caste system going.

Every accusation by the GOP is ALWAYS a confession.

And wht do you do after the diamonds are poofed,eh? White diamond is still oit there. Gem society would still be unchanged. Invasions wioild continue. Did you think the crystal gems would defeat the diamonds and conquer homeworld with king Steven?

[up][up][up]So, they get of free of any consequences and all the suffering they caused get forgiven and forgotten simply because they stronger?

[up][up] and [up] We never actually see much of their Empire and we don't know if everything is actually gonna get much worse since their rule is already very bad.

No one is sayong"its cool what you did." Literally no one.The diamonds will pay through atonement and reformation of their society. Not everyone needs to die jeez.

#56013: Jul 7th 2018 at 3:52:07 AM

[up]Did i say eveyone need to die? I say that Diamonds need to receive far harsher punishment than "slap on the wrist", which isn't seem to be coming so they will get away scot free. So yeah, billions deaths and tyrannical rule gonna get forgiven and forgotten pretty much simply because they are stronger.

[up]The past can not be changed. No punishment will ever undo the atrocities committed by the Diamonds. "Punishment" is a useful tool to deter others from committing the same crimes (which doesn't really apply here), or to satisfy revenge-minded individuals (which is not really an impulse one should indulge). It is completely useless when it comes to actually moving forward once the deed is done.

So what is far more important right now would be to persuade the Diamonds and to get them to stop being assholes, so that these events will never happen again.

[up][up] You do realize we've only seen ten seconds of the next episode, right? Please wait until the episodes actually air before you complain that what the Diamonds did is gonna get shoved under the rug.

What about the people who want their actions to be swept under the rug?

Should they also wait?

"This is what you did."

"Im sorry"

"Fix it"

"Ok"

None of this implies forgiveness

So you can actually can see what happened to Pumpkin, it's just very easy to miss: between Greg coming out of the house and the Cluster receding into the Earth, she's standing on the stairs in a group shot.


It's funny people bring up Dragon Ball, 'cause this episode literally aired right before an episode of Dragon Ball Super.

“None of this implies forgiveness“

Yes burn it does seem a bit mild for someone who has slaughtered billions and felt it was justified because they were lesser life forms.

You’re basically letting space Hitler off with community service.
