while there are several instances of gaslighting and similar manipulation tactics throughout the show, the most upsetting instance is in the first episode. a character is shamed by a group of people for having been raped as a young teenager. This scene mainly consists of the repeating phrases "her fault!" and "lead them on!" while this isn't exactly gaslighting, it is extremely distressing and definitely something to be aware of.

The pig and it is after 30min mark. More 30m45sec mark, I should know as I didn't miss ot because of the other comment. You don't see it but your hear the gun fire and a slight yelp from the pig. Horrid, actually. They were in petting it moments before. Just skip from 30m to 31 and you will miss it.

There are many instances of mouths being covered during sexual assault scenes, as well as very graphic shots of women with their mouths stapled shut in the 3rd season. Their mouths are covered by red face masks (look like Covid masks) and they do reveal their brutalization in a very shocking sudden way.

Trigger warning! Season 2 episode 10 Fred violently rapes June on screen to force labor. This happens after Serena says she feels it is best for the baby to be born naturally. She calls June to her bedroom where she holds June down and Fred rapes her. She yells no and thrashes around. This could be extremely triggering.
Throughout the series - at least the first season, it is non-violent. The premise is that women who are able to conceive are handmaids. They are assigned to people whose wives are infertile to reproduce. Offred is raped on screen twice in the first 3 episodes on screen. It is non-violent, but being a Handmaid, there is no consent, but manipulation, and brainwashing, along with fear tactics to coerce them into "willingly" participating are used in orientation.

Gilead is shown to use violence against those who don't conform to their ways, but the groups themselves are not depicted in a negative way. Gilead is clearly the oppressor.

Unlike what the other comment said, Offred's original husband doesn't die in the first episode (though it is hinted, it is later revealed he didn't die). Black people do die in the series though, but not the first death.

just for better understanding; certain figures' speeches include misogyny and homophobia, but it is not affirmative or uncommented.

So glad there's finally a religious trigger!
This show is based around extreme fundamentalist religion and beliefs. There are recitations of specific bible verses as well as Bible stories.

Technically no, but since the religious themes are so prominent and shown so aggressively, we frequently hear about “bad people” and Hell is implied as a punishment. Some characters state that Hell would be better than living in Gilead.

Scene where a woman is naked while giving birth. It’s not a closeup shot, but her silhouette is clear.

A major concept within the book and TV series is the role of the Handmaids to conceive a child for the Wife by the Commander. Offred herself describes the complex ritual by which the Commander attempts to impregnate her. She also has s*x with the Commander at an underground party full of scantily clad women wherein he leads her to a room and sleeps with her. Later on, she has an affair with Nick.

Not as such, to my memory, but a traditional concept of manliness is enforced within the dystopian society depicted. Emotionality in men, though never explicitly mentioned, is pretty obviously discouraged in Gilead.

In an attempt to escape the oppressive regime of Gilead, Offred (or June Osborne in the new series), and her husband crash their car against a tree. Fortunately, she and her family not significantly harmed but are slowed down in their flight.

There are explosions, but they are caused by either handmade bombs or military, non-nuclear air strikes. The Colonies is a stretch of land in what was the Midwest that is contaminated with radioactive waste, but whether this waste is from war or industry has not been stated.
