I've heard this theory that I really like. Pink never understood how much she mattered to those around her Pink never understood how much she meant to the other diamonds (even White) "Blue and Yellow don't care, this is Pink diamond's colony"(side-eye) She never intended for Spinel to be stuck in the garden forever, she didn't expect herself to matter so much to Spinel that she would've stayed and waited for thousands of years She didn't understand how much she meant to the gems, she finally felt like she could be someone good (see: "love like you) when she allowed Steven to take form, and in her mind giving up herself for a life far more precious than her; not understanding how gravely it would affect the few still around her.
@@pedrosso0 I don't think it's necessarily "not understanding", I think she just held the belief that she didn't matter, and it's understandable--- considering how she was treated the majority of her life. She was sort of treated like a child, and "disciplined" accordingly, and yes she did, *act* like one, but the concept of being a child is foreign to gems. And she was treated like this, the entirety of her life as a diamond. Pink diamond says it herself, "I'm just as important as you"-- which does imply she did have self worth at first, but Yellow diamonds treatment followed after can definitely imply that this was implemented as she "grew up", essentially. Or well, changed. She may be a diamond but she probably just hated herself, she wasn't treated like an equal and the times she was treated with respect/decency was when she was either giving entertainment(entertaining the other diamonds), or when she was talking to gems of a lower position, which I personally assume she probably didn't think it was genuine. But I think she'd rather choose that, fake care rather than the abuse she faced as a diamond--- from not being treated as nothing more than a child, or in even harsher words, a Dog, to living a life where people somewhat care about her. To summarize this, Tltr; I don't think she didn't understand, she just hated herself so much from how she was raised; she couldn't see it being a reality.
@@scrunchy8239 I don't think there's a difference between not understanding and not seeing it being a reality; but what you have to say does push the point forward by a lot.
The worst thing is that the Diamonds did not actually acknowledge their abusive behaviour from the way they treated Steven when he appeared in Homeworld and they thought he was Pink. They've realized it just later.
So I assume this was after "the shattering"? It also makes sense after Steven's return to homeworld cause it hurts more to them knowing Pink decided to leave instead of her being killed.
It's very beautiful❤, I'm sorry for pink, she suffered a lot (they all suffered differently, but I write about pink because she is my favorite character)
Esa canción me hace acordar a mí papá, ya que él sufrió mucho por su enfermedad y falleció, pero gracias a Dios y al universo...no estando solo. Ya hace 4 años que no lo tengo y siempre que escucho este tema me da un dolor en el pecho 🥺 Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
Sinto muito meu Hermano Argentino. Sinto pela perda de seu pai e dele ter sofrido. Essa música também me atinge de outra forma Desejo boa sorte nessa sua crise emocional e crise financeira e politica que passa seu país. Saudações do Brasil. ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ
I am … so sorry pink.. for letting this universe fail you as it has, for letting *me* … fail you.. You sat there and suffered in silence for eons, and yet we did nothing.. we cast you out and went to war with someone who had your same attitude.. and we never saw.. Your last game was your most ambitious one, Pink.. and I was glad to be a player in it.. I just wish that I had chosen the right side..
The sad part is that they thought it was best for pink when she just wanted to be free now since they weren’t in control of white they saw what they did to pink and what was wrong they wished they could go back when they realized but it was eras ago light years. So sad and they say it’s for kids.
I find it so intriguing that there were so many holes in Pinks discuise and story cuz in her story as Rose Quartz, Garnet says she was made here on *Earth* on Lars' ship, the "reject" gems talk about how she's a gem from homeworld, before Garnet ofcourse says that she was "made on Earth" and tells the story she was made to believe but when Rose danced with Greg, he asked her if she missed her home planet, and she didn't stop to think and say "Earth *is* my home planet", she instead immediately went "no, never." even tho Garnet and the other gems at the time were listening, and no one batted an eye at it
I always get so heart sunken when people voice hatred for pink, never mentioning how much she was abused and how much she pushed to do better. I think, coming from a family that treated me fairly similar, i could only see kinship in pink. So when people talk about how dare she give up her life to make steven, how selfish it was of her...i can only think about how much she was thinking "ill finally be useful. Ill make life from nothing" (the nothing, being how she views herself, as she was treated like she was nothing all her life, despite being a ding dang diamond)
