Kara's behavior in Season 2 might count. She often insults Tuca and then makes fun of her for being "too sensitive" by claiming she was joking, and generally manipulates Tuca to always listen to Kara and not trust her own instincts.

A running gag in Season 2 has Bertie's limbs fall off. It's very cartoony though, and more representative of her anxiety than literal.

In the first episode, a bully child says “empathy is over” which implies he bullies people and animals because he has no empathy which adds to the already rampant stigma that having no empathy means you are abusive which is constantly used to villainize neurodivergent ppl or armchair diagnose abusive people as neurodivergent (especially ASPD and NPD). “Dumb” “crazy” etc are also used in negative context or without reclaimation

One of the main topics of the show is how women are sexually assaulted and harassed in the workplace. There is also a scene where it's heavily implied that a character was sexually assaulted as a child, as they are recounting their experience.
