Not exactly slurs, but it's referred to as "perversion" and people who were caught expressing their homosexuality or bisexuality were sent to "re-education" camps if not outright killed.

Actual, explicit gaslighting is brief (one character tells another that they sound crazy when they've caught onto him), but there's a lot of other kinds of mind games throughout the series as well.

No, but in S4E8, someone presses a knife to a man's cheek, just below his eye, and threatens to "take" the eye if he doesn't do what she wants. It occurs around 15 minutes into the episode. No actual damage is done, but it might be uncomfortable for people with this phobia.

There are a few times where tension is abruptly broken, for example a person looks dead but then suddenly opens their eyes and gasps loudly. I don't have much of a jump reflex for such scenes but I imagine that for folks who do, these moments would count as jumpscares.

A couple of times, Juliana says "I'm going to be sick," but she never actually is. And sometimes characters look like they -feel- ill, but again, they don't actually do anything.
In S4E5, Himmler coughs pretty badly in a way that might be a little triggering to those with severe emetophobia, but it -is- just coughing.
S4E8 @31:50-32:02 A man swallows something that makes him choke and foam at the mouth. It's not v* but it could be triggering. If you want to mute and look away, the dialogue you'd miss is the woman saying to him: "Spit it out! Talk to me or you'll die blind! Where are the others?" Then you'd hear the next scene starting, with Helen asking "Why are you telling me this?" After that, it's safe.
S4E9 @ about 43 minutes, Himmler's coughing gets pretty bad. If you mute, use closed captioning, otherwise you miss some very important dialogue (which I won't say here because big spoilers).

No but there's a lot of pro-America (including American military) propaganda that might be upsetting for people who would also want to avoid copaganda.

S4E8, about 25 minutes in, there's a high-pitched ringing sound meant to portray tinnitus after someone was hit in the head. It hurt my ears and might be triggering for some people. It only lasts for a few seconds and there's no dialogue during it, so it's okay to mute as soon as he gets hit.

Several people throughout the series kill themselves to escape worse fates. In the series finale (S4E10), at about 50 minutes in, a character shoots himself.

S2E6 @ 39ish minutes, flickering light.
Coal mine scenes in season 3.
S3E4 @ about 22:40-22:50, again a few times starting at about 23:45, *extremely* bad flickering! Ends when the scene ends, at 24:00.
S3E9 some flashing as part of the portal scene, and then some during gunfire right after that.
And photography flashes in several parts of the series.

Not explicitly but it's implied that that's a possible outcome, and of course the Nazis did kill lots of LGBT people.

The Nazis believed that people with disabilities, chronic illnesses, or certain genetic conditions shouldn't be allowed to live or reproduce. The series explores this topic in detail, with a pretty disturbing storyline, especially for viewers with such conditions.

I can only assume that the people who answered "yes" didn't watch the whole series. The first few seasons might have sad endings or cliffhangers, but the finale does not.
