Every time I see a post or video on “How the Jedi Council is at fault for Anakin falling to the dark side” or “is it really a wonder that Anakin Fell because of the Jedi?” I have to literally run away from my phone and do my very best not to read it because people still believe that.
As if he doesn’t make his own choices. As if he doesn’t have a choice to be a Jedi. As if that takes blame off of Palpatine. As if that justifies him brainwashing and murdering people and children.
Cause awww that Jedi Council didn’t like him and didn’t trust him; he’s such a poor baby no wonder he turned to the dark side.
Yeah. Let’s blame twelve people who were leading an entire culture/religion while trying to win a war that was a trap in the first place while not dying out on the kid who thinks he’s never wrong, deserves to know everything, and ends up committing mass genocide, plus 20 extra years of tyranny and murder. Okay sure.
