During the riot in S5, some inmates abuse the guards.
Aleida was pimped out by her mother and Aleida is a terrible mother herself (but more in the sense of being neglectful and emotionally abusive).

Late in S2, a character severely beats up another, and a character is hit in the head/face with a lock in a sock. In early S4, we see a Latina character pushed down a flight of stairs by, iirc, a group of white supremacists (but I don't think she was beaten). Later in S4, a trans woman is ganged up and beaten by a group of transphobes and I think some of it is explicit. There are more such beatings but not on screen. There are also several scenes in which a bullied person explicitly beats up their bully (the scenes that come to mind are at the very end of S1E13, in late S4 and in early S7). Some characters are shown with bad facial injuries after the beatings.

Fig has an eating disorder. It's quipped at a few times in the series, but she talks about it more in the car with Caputo in season 6.

Well, Suzanne (Crazy Eyes) is implied to have a developmental disorder/have ASD because of her symptoms, and schizophrenia, because of how she thinks voices are in her head. Her symptoms mostly are stereotypical autism: head hitting, stimming, tantrums, acting like she is a child/baby, yelling, screaming, etc. (this is throughout the show)

No, but the timeline got messed up when the writers applied a floating timeline to the show even though the show clearly is supposed to have a set timeline defined by Piper's DOB+age and explicitly mentioned prison sentences.

ooh boy where to start
the short answer is yes and this is why i stopped watching the show, the long answer....
1) jokes about all the black innmates being on crack
2) crazy russian lady stereotype
3) a black lesbian nicknamed "crazy eyes" who becomes a violent stalker and tries to force a straight white woman into a relationship with her
that's just the stuff i can remember off the top of my head from watching it ages ago but probably best to assume that if there's a character from a minority group they will probably be misrepresented

There is a whole story arc where inmates try to get kosher meals and pretend to be Jewish. A character does convert and become Jewish but several other inmates treat her poorly for it. Other Jewish inmates outside of the one who has converted are subject to lots of name calling and mistreatment.

Pennsatucky was hyperreligious in S1. Sister Ingalls was a nun and brings up religion and spirituality quite often throughout the show. She also has a flashback in which we see her as a nun. One episode in S3 has flashbacks focusing on multiple characters' relationship to God. Throughout S3, Judaism is discussed a lot. S3 also has a story line involving a cult and reveals that a character grew up Amish. S6 shows a Bat Mitzvah, but religion is not the main focus of the scene.
