You could make the argument that the Diamonds are like abusive parents to Pink, but the show's crew had debunked the gems having any family relations. Plus, Connie's mom is initially very strict towards her, but she eventually changes her ways.

During the second half of the last season, Steven is constantly ignored and gaslit by the Diamonds, intentionally or not, who refuse to call him by his name or correct pronouns until the final episode. It may be uncomfortable for some viewers, due to its similarities to the situation of a transgender person being misgendered by their family.

Lapis is shown being drawn towards an abusive dynamic with Jasper in which Lapis can subjugate Jasper. She resists it in the end, but the idea of "abused becoming the abuser" seems to be presented uncritically by the show. There are other points where this theme shows up in her dialogue too.

In the episode “Onion Gang”, Steven, Onion, and Onion’s friends have a bug race. If one has sensitivities to seeing bugs crawling, you might want to skip this part of the episode. At the end of the race, Onion’s friends tell Steven to squash the bug he got, as it won. His particular bug is a Stag Beetle. No bug is actually squashed as Steven refuses to squash it. Onion comes by Steven’s house later to return the bug. Also, some Corrupted Gems look like bugs. The Centipeedle, one of these monsters, is very millipede-like. The Heaven Beetle and Earth Beetle look exactly like beetles, however, unlike the Centipeedle, who is sometimes seen attacking the Crystal Gems, the Heaven and Earth Beetle aren’t hostile and are calm towards the Gems

No literal rape whatsoever, although it is possible to interpret fusion as a metaphor for sex, and multiple nonconsensual fusions occur onscreen. Although these scenes can be thematically similar to rapes, the imagery shown is not similar. You just see two characters dance, glow, and turn into one big character.

While no one is assaulted, the episode Alone Together features a character being approached at a party by someone who wants to dance with them, and keeps pushing and getting in their personal space even after being told no. This doesn't escalate, but it may be uncomfortable for some viewers.

None of the minor characters are drawn in a sexualized way or engage in sexual behavior, but some people consider fusion as a metaphor for sex, and minors do perform this. Usually when minors do it, fusion is NOT sexualized at all. The one scene that might be uncomfortable is in Alone Together when the gems are trying to teach Steven how to fuse for the first time. They demonstrate performing sexualized dances to fuse with each other, and then Steven awkwardly tries to perform the same dances. It’s not sexual when he does it and played for laughs though

Sort of. The closest thing gems have to death is shattering. (Their gem breaking into multiple shards.) But gem shards are shown to still have some consciousness, so they're not really dead. Also, Rose Quartz sort of "died" to give birth to Steven. But since her gem is intact it is greatly debated if she is really, fully gone.

Overall, no, however, Rose Quartz started her relationship with Greg around the same time as her relationship with Pearl. It’s unknown if Rose and Pearl were still in a romantic relationship then, however, Pearl was very hurt by Rose’s neglect to her after meeting Greg. The situation is sort of like cheating.

I clicked "no," but there is a love triangle between Pearl Rose and Greg where it's unclear if Rose started seeing Greg while she was still with Pearl. Pearl makes a comment about having been fine with Rose seeing other people before because they never really mattered until Greg, so it still wouldn't really be cheating, but I think it's worth noting if this type of thing upsets you.

No, however, the Gem Injectors at the Prime and Beta Kindergartens only slightly resemble needles/syringes. For those sensitive only to objects that look like or are needles the Gem Injectors won’t trigger any sensitivities. However, if one is sensitive to objects that can remind one of a needle than you might want to keep an eye out on the person with the sensitivities to see how they react to seeing one

Someone allows themself to be poofed, which is not death but they lose their physical form. There's a lot of self-sacrifice that is not explicitly an attempt but may feel a bit like it. "Steven and the Stevens" show one Steven causing the death of all the alternate universe stevens, including himself, leaving one behind, a little traumatized.

It is not graphic at all, but Pearl frequently allows herself to be essentially knocked unconscious or beaten to exhaustion in battle even when it’s unnecessary and unwanted. She feels the desire to sacrifice her body for others because she considers herself useless. The reasoning behind her self-sacrifice is similar to self harm and could be disturbing. She also tries to impress this mindset onto a young girl but is stopped.

In the episode Rose's Room, Steven goes into a room that creates simulations of anything he asks for. Steven then seemingly leaves and walks around town, but eventually realizes that he never actually left the room and is actually in a wonky simulation generated by it.

Steven has several scenes in which he's shown leaving his body. he also inhabits watermelon stevens and once switches bodies with Lars. There are a few times in which Steven/Stevonnie panics and the screen goes black around them.

Kind of. [SPOILERS]
Steven experiences a lot of his mothers memories and sometimes this is expressed with him not knowing if he is fully himself or not. A lot of homeworld gems also make fun of stevens appearance because they still think he's Rose/Pink in a disguise. He is dressed in feminine clothes when he’s captured by the diamonds

several anxiety/panic attacks are shown, several characters are traumatized after war, and "A Single Pale Rose" shows Steven traveling into Pearl's repressed memories from the war, showing she's extremely traumatized. Mental illness is often discussed with Lapis and Pearl, as well as Steven in later seasons

The show is extremely body positive. In an early episode, Steven and his human friends start working out (lifting weights, mild calisthenics), but that's because Steven wants to be strong like one of the Gem fusions.

Stevonnie is occasionally called she, but only by people who don't know better, and it's very rare.
In recent episodes, however, Steven has been called she multiple times, as well as called by what could be interpreted as a deadname, even after he asks them to stop,

It's not against real minorities, but there's lots of disparaging language against fusions and other “off-colorsâ€. Gems are even called “defectiveâ€. I don't think it's really a big thing, but it's close enough to real hate speech to be off-putting at times. It can be really close to real world ableism at times, but these views are always presented as a bad thing. In any case, i think it's close enough to be wary, especially if you have triggers relating to this.

One art book for the show includes concept art for a bizarre racist caricature, though this character concept for “Concrete” obviously did not make it into the show, and Rebecca Sugar has since apologized on behalf of the animator who drew Concrete.

A character named Renaldo is a conspiracy theorist and talks about “snake people” and how they take over the government and control people, which is similar to the antisemitic “lizard people” conspiracy theory irl. However he gives up on this theory after all the evidence points to it not being true, after a full episode talks about disproving his weird theories. Other than that, there are no direct antisemitic implications.

The only characters that die in the show are Rose Quartz and, for a brief moment, Lars, before being resurrected. Rose Quartz is an alien, but she has pale peach skin and is thus white-coded. Lars is Filipino, not black, and he is immediately brought back to life.

fusion is an allegory for relationships and sometimes sex, and there is a scene in which a humanoid gem forces a corrupted, more animal-looking gem to fuse with her. This doesn't last very long and is not safe for the humanoid, and neither gem is an animal, but at this point the characters believe that the corrupted gem is an animal

In one of the filler episodes, Steven and Connie have a car race with a jerk named Kevin. They have an anxiety attack while driving and spin off the road. Neither the children nor the car are hurt, and they easily get back on the road with no trouble, but they do lose control for a brief period.

Overall, no, however, nearly every Gem has a weapon that they summon from their Gemstone. Gems are seen using these weapons frequently. Various different weapons are seen being used by the Gems but none of them are a gun in any way. Pearl can shoot lasers from her spear/trident however, which is kind of gun-like.
