First quote is talking about the Crystal Gems not being able to forgive themselves on the damage that they did end up doing before the revolution.

Second quote is about the revolution itself. It was a war, it hasn't really been shown as anything less. If you're asking is Rose was/is demonized by Homeworld, then the answer is almost definitely. If you're acting if Rose was acting evil, then no, she wasn't. She was defending a place she thought worth protecting that couldn't protect itself. She may have done some harsh things during the war, but nothing Homeworld probably wouldn't have done themselves.
