First off, I think you should rewatch a few of the episodes, because brother, you're WAY off with the implications on the Crystal Gems and their motives in protecting Earth. They make it clear that they care deeply for its life and nature, most notably with the late Rose Quartz. It's also made clear (albeit through implications) that Earth was once a battleground for other Gems; most likely over resources. The Crystal Gems are merely trying to protect the Earth from another war, which'd explain their dislike of the idea of more Gems returning to the Warp Pads. Implying that they're fugitives? In Peridot's eyes, perhaps, but it's better to be a fugitive in the eyes of warmongers than a group of monsters to Earth's inhabitants!

And once again, I must reiterate that because of the aforementioned above, this is WAY out of character for virtually every main character in the show! Seriously, under what half-baked circumstance would this go through with ANY of the Crystal Gems?!

Also, really? You're going to test your theory on Five Nights at Freddy's? I understand gaining an idea on implications, but using something that's completely different than the show at hand? That's just desperation.

Speaking of desperate things, you're seriously going to believe Ronaldo? The guy that's the CN equivalent of a young, conspiracy spewing crackpot?! Pal, you REALLY need to check your facts!

But before everyone calls me a hypocrite, I have my own theory on the matter:

'''Several thousands of years ago, back when Gems used to colonize the Earth, a violent war broke out for control of the Earth; most likely lead in the charge by Peridot and Lapis if the murals in Serious Steven are of any indication. The only ones who could stand up to them were the Crystal Gems; Rose Quartz, Garnet, Amethyst and Pearl. All four fought valiantly and in the end won the war, and now must protect the Earth so that another war doesn't break out.''' I agree with somethings but I do think what Ronaldo said had some great deal of hints. I thought the others used the fact that Ronaldo was a conspiracist to lay a giant c clue so that it would kinda be hidden in sights making it obvious but not at the same time. What hints?! They make it perfectly clear that the shmuck's flipped his lid. Hell, the first time he sees Amethyst's crater, he thought it was the work of SNAKE PEOPLE! I think that makes one lose one's credibility! The only reason he came to the conclusion of "The Great Diamond Authority" was because of Peedee; and even then that was so Ronaldo wouldn't be depressed in the duration of his life. thats my point. the writters could have used that as an advantage to state the facts but not as obvious as I had state. sentient rocks? shape into anything? Diamond Authority? Hollowing out the earth?(which could be a reason to have war *cough* *cough*). sounds like gems to me I mean sentient rocks are what they are from and they shapshift into things. Even though Pete had to show him to make him happier he probally also used the fact of the gems and steven to form his new theory. He was probally right and we will see so. But I think the Crystal Gems are good not the bad guys. Pure coincidence! Besides, for all we know, Ronaldo was just doing his usual spitballing of the facts. Again, SNAKE PEOPLE! Why should I under any circumstances take his drivel seriously? Plus, even if he, by some bizarre miracle was right about the "Diamond Authority" and "hollowing out the Earth", then why is there no indication of the Earth being hollowed out? You'd think scientists with all their advanced technology, via Gem interference or otherwise would have found out about the Earth being hollow! And don't tell me it's because the Crystal Gems block people's perceptions with magic, because:

A. They hardly use said magic (and don't say weapons count, they're melee weapons for Estelle's sake!)

B. It's not really magic if it's a norm for Gems to use their weapons/powers. Once again the snake people bit was a thing to probally make it harder to believe Ronaldos theory making its an OBVIOUS clue BUT NOT at the same time. for A. as in magic I said SHAPSHIFTING not magic in general ( I would never use the excuse to block out perceptions of people) and amytheyst shapeshifts all the time and steven shaped shift is fingers to cats in one episode or the fact that Pearl transportted stuff like the mirror with her gem or them bubbling stuff. And for scientists they havent ever mentioned the gems whatso ever so they probally dont care I dont want to belief it since its magic and no way to trully explain it. B. Magic isnt something that is just suprising( well it is surprisiing) its a certain ability to things without real scientific proof they do use magic it doesnt just whisk away or called normal human things if they do it for awhile its an ability. and Ronaldo never said that he said that the hollewed the earth or got a bit. He said they are TRYING to hollow it meaning that they wanted and tried but the Crystal Gems stopped them from it happening since they loved earth. So you've proven my point: the we shouldn't believe Ronaldo's stories of the "Diamond Authority" or otherwise because he's a crackpot! Also, I reiterate: It's not magic if it's the norm for the species! For Gems (and to an extent, Steven), Fusion and Shapeshifting come naturally. What magic they DO have is just to enhance their natural abilities.

Also, don't care? Really? They don't care about what would be to them a scientific breakthrough? Any scientist in the world would try dissecting them if word spread to Washington! In fact, the more I think about it, that's probably why they were further afraid of more Gems going through the warp pads; so they wouldn't become experiments to the paranoid governments of the world.

I appreciate that you're taking my side on the Crystal Gems being not evil, but at this point, I'm starting to think you're grasping at straws.
