Episode 13 involves smuggling "spice" which is an in universe drug but no one consumes any and there is little reference to anyone using it other than it having negative effects on people. The characters also spend time in a bar throughout season 1 and 2 but there is very little reference to alcohol made.

An autistic character isn’t always understood by the other characters and he has to explain why he expresses himself differently but he’s not abused because of his autism specifically.

Certainly unintentional but worth noting: Someone might(?) have claimed in-show that Omega is the only woman clone of Jango Fett despite one of the canon novels having a trans woman Clone Trooper in it, as most people haven’t even heard of the post-Legends books no less read them this was almost undoubtedly an error but I’d like to point it out.

A white actor voices the Clones, who are Māori. The Bad Batch also have whitewashed features despite being Māori. Cid embodies antisemitic stereotypes. A Black man (Saw Gerrera) is depicted with straight brown hair and green eyes despite having textured hair in his other appearances. Kanan is whitewashed. Neimodians are based on gray aliens, a trope which has roots in “yellow peril” tropes.

Cid is a “lizard person” whose whole personality is greed and who has a Jewish accent. Not helped by The Clone Wars also has antisemitic portrayals in the form of the Banking Clan and the Toydarians.
