It’s Steven’s birthday!
I really think most people's "valid" critiques of steven universe boil down to them taking children's media, especially one's like it with an ethos of deep messages told through abstracts and visual metaphors, far too fucking seriously.
Like I'm sorry but Steven Universe, Star vs the Forces of Evil, and even Avatar the Last Airbender are not the shows that will hang their dictators for their warcrimes and like. I'm gonna be honest you would really understand that if you weren't chasing reality in every piece of media you watch.
Long form childrens content that handle serious topics are still going to chase themes that are pertinent to the lives of children and not the adult world. I know the whole vengeance is bad thing is played out for most people over the age of 12 but like. These mediums can and often do cover the validity of revolution. They just don't dwell on death and violence because they are at their core, children's media that stick to themes. For children.
And like it's not that kids aren't ready for that, it is just almost rarely the mo of network kids shows to paint our realities as black and white, especially when they're supposed to be colorful and fun. And when the main problem you guys have are like "not enough of the bad people died in the end" I feel like. I feel like it's the same thing as saying "Why didn't Luke just stab Darth Vader through the stomach?" Because that's not the story they wanted to tell and that's not the theme they wanted end on.
Idk. Think smaller. Kids seem better at it than grown adults these days. There's this running theme in a lot of kids shows that wow. The weight of the whole world really is on the youngest generations shoulders. And even if violence is a means to an end, resolve and restraint and tolerance are the real answer.
Some stories play with so many abstracts that it just makes more thematic sense for CHILDREN'S content, to end with more tolerance because they operate on such a pure understanding that what these kids are watching. Is fiction.
Oh my god. Anyways that's my little rant. Yall are annoying. Steven Universe and Avatar don't have a "problematic amount of pacifism" you just have no critical thinking skills about what story beats portray themes clear as fucking day. For children.

you know what I don’t think that tommy’s actually that cool. I think his hobbies are cool but really the man is awkward and his deadpan humor doesn’t always land well. but so far what from what we’ve seen, Buck is always so smiley and giggly about his little jokes and quips, and I think a scene with the 118 either watching Buck smiling at his phone or when tommy is there in person kind of being like…man he’s not that funny you’re just gone on him
