Think about, what if the Crystal Gem aren't the only group on earth; what if there are other members of the Crystal Gems out in space fighting against the so-called "Gem Empire", or "Decepti-gems", and living on other worlds they are protecting, as well, and/or liberating worlds subjugated by the empire. The biggest reason I tend to think it's a rebellion is the fact that within Lion's mane is a flag with Rose's colors that has a triangle in the center. That's what leads me to believe that the Crystal Gems are defectors, not a part of a larger faction.
