Rebecca Sugar has always said that the main lessons of Steven Universe were about family. Steven is based directly on her brother, and the three main Gems are all based on different parts of Rebecca herself. The plot about Homeworld is all secondary, as you can see when the fandom complains that not every episode is about that and there's too much "filler" that's just based on interpersonal relationships between Steven and the Gems and the townspeople. Even the Homeworld plot isn't literally about an intergalactic dictatorship. It's about another family that's come apart. It so little resembles any real world sociopolitical system that the only people who see it that way are not the people it was made for.

I don't know, if these themes are in the show, it kind of seems reasonable to comment or critique based on them? Even if they're not supposed to be the main part of the show? Obviously you don't have to agree with that point of view, they just want a different thing from the show than you do?
