Wasn't the point that White Diamond didn't know she was doing anything wrong? She thought she was making stuff better by trying to make her world an overly idealistic perfection, ironically making everything worse. She was still a bad person, but it was obvious she cared, at some times more than others, about the other diamonds, and even the other gems.
Sort of. It more portrayed her as wanting everything her way because it was the "right" way and how she wanted it. Which isn't exactly about caring and is more about wanting control. If we really want to analyze it it's probably because Pink Diamond fucking off made her snap mentally. Apparently she was semi-decent before that. Or at least was said to hang out with the other Diamonds and actually leave her little head spaceship.Wasn't the point that White Diamond didn't know she was doing anything wrong?

You weren't a kid in the 80's, were you? The hero killing the villain was considered perfectly acceptable and I don't recall anybody ever trying to slice another kid in half because they saw Voltron whip out a sword and cut the monster of the day in two.Anyway though. I don't think the SU Critical fans quite get this show is meant for kids and NOT just for them. Sugar making Steven whip out a sword and shatter White wouldn't be a great message for kids. So I kind of understand the whole thing of just talking fixing everything.
It's not about what the show would make kids do. Steven Universe has never been about destroying villains. That's the one thing the show at least keeps straight. Steven consistently tries to save people even if they're bad to give people a chance. There's nothing wrong with the show not having Steven killing White Diamond. It'd be out of character for the show to have White Diamond killed by Steven.You weren't a kid in the 80's, were you?

Honestly, for this topic you could have just posted "Fanboys ruin everything" and then had a mod lock it.
There's some SU fascism sperging on 4chan

You took the easy way out. Only real men watch Steven Universe.No longer caring about this show was one of the best decisions I ever made last year.
Feels good, man.

Oh please. Boys watch Steven Universe. Men watch Steven Universe and then make hour-long critical analysis videos on youtube.
Can these dickheads seriously not just calm down and enjoy a cutesy cartoon for babbies? it had an episode where a cat-shaped ice cream bar saved the day for Christ’s sake.More content from the Connie fix-fic writer:
