A character tells a story of their mother abandoning them in a forest in the middle of the night at a young age (around 8 iirc) and having to find their way home. This was in the past and is told as a story, not shown.

Multiple children are abused, the severity of the abuse is a major plot point.
SPOILER- it is revealed that one child was abused to the point of being killed by her abuse.

The plot of the show revolves around the abuse in the main characters family. Very little of the abuse is physically violent, but there is domestic/familial abuse in every episode.

There is a prolonged party scene in which children and adults both take hard drugs. Alcohol, opiates, and psychedelics are all shown/ talked about being consumed.
There are also scenes later on where a young character takes pills before an event, which triggers the next plot point.
Alcoholism is a key plot point and the drug/alcohol culture is a big part of the setting.

Beginning of the episode: a bunch of drunken teens are chasing a fearful piglet in the park, playing some stupid hick game of Capture The Pig.
24 minutes into the episode: A character walks through a pig factory farm, where we hear lots of squealing, and see pigs and nursing piglets contained in pens that are way too small, typical of the horrendous meat farm conditions.

Despite the town being dependent on the factory farm, and the many characters connected to it, there are NO on-screen animal deaths for the entirety of the series, beyond some details that imply it happens regularly in the town, like the workers with bloody clothes, or everyone in town eating large quantities of bacon, sausage, and ham. So, this category really should be 100% NO votes.

There is a past group assault that is brought up in flashbacks and conversation, the lead up to the assault is shown but none of the assault itself & no clothes were removed. It is implied to be a common occurance in the area, and the victim plays it off.
There is also a dubiously consensual sex scene between an 18 and 37(ish) year old. Both characters verbally consented, but the age gap and questionable mental states of both characters can make the scene uncomfortable.

The sexualization of young girls is brought up repeatedly throughout the series, but never explicitely. A young (13ish) girl is shown hitting on grown men, and there are conversations/implications about young girls using sex as social currency or a way to get drugs. It is a common enough theme I cant name the episodes it appears in.

Kind of, its one of those cases that doesn't exactly qualify as a jump scare because its not really meant to scare you like horror movies do, but they have a unique editing and montage style that's really effective, but also uses things like quick flashes of people and things, especially some of the more brutal imagery, to convey their message and a few definitely caught me off guard and made me jump.

POSSIBLE SPOILERS I tried to not say anything to give the story away, but still wanted to give as much info as to help people avoid these triggers since its such an incredible show that deserves to be watched.
Episode 3 within the last 10 minutes of the episode there is a montage over piano music. When the montage starts showing Camille and the nurse who helped her get the music for her roommate, its about to happen.
Episode 7 within the last 10 minutes
After Camille learns the truth it cuts back to her step father playing music, and then cuts to Amma getting sick with her mother in her room.
Episode 8- all throughout the episode, at least three times. A few of them happen almost directly after a cut to a new scene so there isn't much warning, but you can usually tell from context when its going to happen in the episode, especially when Adora is taking care of Camille.

Needles are used for self-harm
Someone almost pricks themselves with a needle under the fingernail and then almost opens an old scar with a needle. At the end of the episode, they draw a needle across their leg while wearing tights and across their stomach (no blood).

It has a lot of montages that use things like lights and images shown quickly throughout the show to convey different feelings, so personally I would say yes. They also use some of the more disturbing images to emphasize this sometimes which could be considered jumpscares. But they aren't rapidly flashing or changing color a lot, just some well edited montages that uses some quick imagery.

both the f slur and an anti-mexican slur are used. there is in-character glorification of the confederacy. someone implies mlm characters would be attracted to those too young for them (in that case, an 18 year old who is either still in or just recently graduated high school.) it’s mentioned that a child with a wlw mother felt the need to prove they weren’t gay. i’m still re-watching it so i don’t remember all scenes, but there are definitely many instances of in-character bigotry.

Mexican imligrant workers are a part of the town culture. The white part of town is shown being very racist (realistically) towards them. The area the migrant workers live in is shown as a s****y destitute trailer park type of area.
This show does contain racism directed towards the mexican migrants and to the few Black characters in the show, but in my opinion as a mexican it is shown realistically. The characters of color are not depicted in a bad light, the white people just hate them anyway.
