There are however mentions of suicide and at first it is thought that the character did commit suicide, however it was a cover-up story from the government and instead she was murdered. This is an important plot point but it gets handled with respect

Government is trying to cover up the fact they killed a black woman by framing it as suicide, also generally people trying to ignore sexism or make it seem not as bad and that kinda stuff.

Nothing is shown, but a character's dead body is shown briefly, then later as a photograph in a newspaper article. It is revealed that their death was caused by the government while they were in prison

one of the characters dies in police custody - whether by suicide or not is a big subject of dispute

The government is suspected of staging suicide on a black women. They said they found a letter saying "I'd rather kill myself then spend another day in this fascist prison" or something along those lines

It's a big deal in the movie. It's a very activist movie and it's seen as a great deal and treated well I think. It's the only death shown in the movie for so far I can remember.

A song that repeats in the movie has a line that goes “We broke the hidden tyrannies
Of the reptilian joint-stock companies”

Sort of? There is one cutaway shot from a few seconds of someone putting on a condom, a cutaway to two women embracing while naked also a few seconds, and also attempted assault. Also mentions of rape by women activists. However no sexual acts get shown on screen at all and aside from the two mentioned shots (honestly the one with the women wasnt framed as very sexual either) there's nothing explicit being shown.
