Pearl using Garnet could be applicable to anyone. It doesn't need to be laced with racism. Actually, what Pearl did is much closer to gold digging than racism. Pearl wanted to fuse wtih Garnet to feel strong because she herself is weak, under the guise that they were thwarting Peridot. Similar to how gold diggers go into relationships with others just for what the other has (money, power, etc.) and not out of love.

Plus, even if it was racism. Pearl actually genuinely felt bad for what she did. She had pleaded for apology to Garnet, and was suffering in the interim days between the fall out and forgiveness. The Crewniverse showed that using someone without their consent can make you lose that person and potentially your life miserable. That's a proper message if you ask me.
