the basics of Steven Universe is that even the "bad guys" are people and often redeemed, very much like MLP but even moreso as MLP still has some villains that are just plain bad for the sake of being bad.. Steven Universe is much more "adult" in that sense, in that show there is no true "good" or "evil", only differences of views.. the Diamonds get very close to evil but ultimately even they are humanized way too much to be seen as simply "bad guys who do bad things".

the only character I can think of that may be evil in Steven Universe is White Diamond but we know ziltch about her so far.. as stands every villain in Steven Universe is tragic, regardless of the extremes of their backstories.. it may be hard to sympathize with Diamonds because of what they are but ultimately we do anyway.. even if it is mostly Blue.. I personally think all Steven Universe villains (even the Diamonds) are not only redeemable but are likely to be redeemed by the very nature of the show.

that means Steven Universe is a rare show were even multi-planetary dictators can be shown with a tragic, sympathetic light and chance to better themselves.
