Rose Quartz/Pink Diamond is basically a reverse Anakin/Darth Vader - went from bad to good, instead of the other way around - and yet is the more reviled of the two in discourse. I wonder why.

I think a lot of people get so angry about the pink diamond reveal because she reminds them of themselves - of *ourselves*, those who are contextually privileged along one axis but oppressed along another, who have tried to do better but still have roots in social privilege.

explicitly, I'm talking here about white women and white queer folks of all genders. pink diamond's transition to rose quartz is problematic, but realistically so. she fucked up a lot and made a big mess, but her worst sin arguably was lying about herself and her motives -
