>>147402007>her redemption is shown backwardsYou are fabricating a redemption.
She didn't do any of that for altruistic reasons, and then before finishing or insuring any of the shit you imagine, she did an ill advised experiment by making a lifeform (the main character) that is completely dependent on her constant space magic healing, gave them no info about the bullshit pile she left looming, and he will eventually die or be lost and sloughed off by accident.
Seriously, if they hadn't accidentally found out about the cluster, steven would be dead from mere physical proximity to it popping, and pink diamond wouldn't be able to reform him, and would throw one of her tantrums against the other diamonds.
Hell, bithmuths shatterer was even more of a personal threat, and existential threat and Pink DID KNOW ABOUT IT, AND LET STEVEN FUCKING WALK RIGHT INTO THAT ONE.
This revisionist apologist retardation doesn't help the story at all.
None of the "reconciliations" that these retarded writers like, ever made any sense.
This revisionism doesn't even rationalize Spinel away.
