Sort of. Children at the Fulcrum are taught that their punishments (some of which are quite severe) are fair and their bad emotional reactions to these things are the real problem. Schaffa, one of the Guardians, convinces his charges that he hurts them out of love.

Sort of. Orogenes are expected to have sex with other orogenes to produce powerful bloodlines, and don't have much leeway to refuse.

Not quite, but one of the characters is repeatedly mentioned to have issues eating enough food because he no longer feels hunger.

The more “unskilled” orogenes are if I remember correctly are given a lobotomy or something and kept captive in a vegetative state, basically comatose but not treated well

Major spoiler: Innon is murdered. Alabaster appears to die at one point, but it turns out he doesn’t die until the end of the book. Before the events of the book, Alabaster’s lover was killed by a Guardian

This is kind of hard to answer, because all the characters are mixed race (often with racial features that don't align with our own races), and nearly all of them have dark skin. It would be more accurate to say many black people die all the time, but many also survive.

Not any modern ones, but there's a fantastical slur, rogga, which people use to refer to orogenes.

Many sad things happen throughout the book, but the tone at the end is fairly neutral. (Remember, this is the first in a trilogy.)
