That is a genuine complaint that far too many people had who had CONVINCED themselves that the narrative arc of the show is Steven coming to terms with the fact that his mom murdered Pink Diamond was justified when he had to kill the other 3 to end a totalitarian dictatorship.

The 2012-about 2019 era was half baked hard leftist politics, identity politics, class politics and revolutionary politics as a big congealed mass under the banner of 'representation' which is why grown ass adults were asking why this kids show wasn't showing the villains facing a firing squad

Steven doesn’t even like the other diamonds for 99% of the runtime
