Most notably when minor characters get attacked by facehuggers. For a facehugger to put the alien inside them, they must choke the victim with the tail and tightly grip on the victim, supplementing breathing for the host while it does its thing.

Andy is definitely coded as being neurodivergent in some way and displays fine motor function difficulties, tics, hyperfixations, and a speech impediment. I found a lot of his storyline triggering, from the anti-autistic rhetoric used by the characters bulling him to the way he’s “fixed”.

Nearly 30 mins in, Kay (girl with curly black hair) runs to the toilet and very graphically throws up, just after they land the “W” shaped thing in the hangar.
Two scenes of androids spitting up white fluid (spoilers!) - when they first revive “Rook” (acid-damaged droid on ship) and late in the film when Rain finds Andy after he is attacked by the “Offspring”.
For those averse to “mouth stuff” in general, the bits in the trailer:
When the face huggers first attack, one of them waggles its proboscis in one of the guys’ faces while he fights it off.
When they pull the face hugger off Navarro (Asian girl)’s face, there is a big close-up of its lengthy proboscis being pulled out of her throat. Yuck!

No, but the subtext is there, and I personally was definitely thinking about abortion during. At one point in the movie, a male character stick an electric rod into an egg that looks an awful lot like a vagina, with intent to kill the thing inside.
(SPOILERS) Also, a baby is literally killed at the end of the movie, though it resembles an adult at that point in time and is hostile and dangerous.

The android character does not actually have autism or any other neurological disorder. However, some may find his mannerisms and behavior relatable, and he is ridiculed by others in the group for being different from them, and is said to not have feelings. This made me (an autistic person) upset.

As in previous movies, the reproductive process of the xenomorphs is an allegory for sexual assault, and so the movie is full of thinly veiled sexual content

One of the main characters is heavily coded as disabled and has multiple “attacks” throughout the movie that his sister has to help him through.

The ending itself isn’t sad, but many characters have sad outcomes

There aren’t really cars because it’s space, but ships do crash
