The show treated her like shit for saying it, but she wasn't wrong. Rose kinda fucked up the whole war. Apparently it had two goals: Preserving all life on the Planet Earth, and creating a community where Gems could do as they please without the Diamonds' tyranny. First, even after they "won", large chunks of the planet have been fucked up (Who knows how grim things became in this new Earth without great Russians like Peter the Great,Tolstoy,Ivan Pavlov, or Andrei Sakharov.) Not only does the native population have to deal with the corrupted gems and other leftovers from the war, Rose and Co. seem to have done jack shit to stop climate change, deforestation, or over reliance on oil. They saved the Earth from aliens just to let the natives destroy it. And of course, none of them had the slightest fucking clue about the Cluster, and if it weren't for Peridot herself there really would be no Earth.
Second, they technically did establish a community of Gem individualism....for the handful of survivors of the Corruption Song, Everyone else pretty much threw their life away. So, Rose really did fuck over the whole planet and everyone on it, for....some reason I guess?
