I consider Crystal Gems to be gems that had (or currtently are) apart of Rose's movement to protect Earth and went against the Homeworld in the war.

I can't remember if in Keeping it Together it was made clear that the gem shards had been on Rose's side during the war or not. I assumed they were just shattered gems left in the Kindergarten from the gem occupation and not members of Rose's mvement.

I could have overlooked that info from KIT in which case I'm completely wrong and delusional, lol
