And Jasper? Jasper pretty much had no life and no personal connections - war and violence was literally all she knew, which is why she couldn't handle something deeper like fusion with other gems. Pink Diamond was pretty much the only person she ever cared about, so when Rose shattered her she was left with nothing and joined Yellow Diamond in order to "feel like less of a failure." That is valid reason to feel sorry for her, even if she wasn't redeemed or redeemable. Sure Jasper absolutely brought her fate on herself and got what she deserved, but at the same time there's reason to pity her and feel bad that her life had to even come to such a downfall. (And hypothetically I could say that I feel Amethysts' treatment of Greg when she pretended to be Rose for petty and sick reasons put ''her'' past the point of no return, so should that mean I shouldn't feel sad for her after Jasper put her down?) The way I see it, feeling bad for Jasper after her defeat despite all that she'd done isn't any different from, say, feeling bad for Princess Azula after her defeat despite all that she'd done.

I also have not minded how Peridot and Lapis have been written - I actually find them to be some of the most entertaining characters on the show as of late.
