truly fascinating to see someone say you cant blame palpatine for being evil because thats his narrative purpose but anakin is worse because he chose that path as if he just. woke up one day and said "hmmm i think today i will become evil" regardless of the 400 page essay in there somewhere about the nuance of his choice after years of textbook grooming and manipulation and trauma. like im obsessed with this idea that palpatine just blinked into existence one day old and fully 100% evil with zero events leading up to that and therefore gets a pass for being evil but if you get manipulated for 23 years WELL maybe you shouldve just been better at cognitive behavioral therapy have you considered that
#LIKE THEYRE BOTH VILLAINS. TO BE CLEAR.#obv anakin made bad choices and reaped what he sowed like girl thats The Point ๐ญ#i understand 'choosing to be evil is worse' but its so funny to say 'aw man we cant hate sheev he was just written that way' ????? HELLO?#me when im sheev and im born to an affluent political family but i was born into the narrative as evil so its NOT my fault :(#sorry not everything can be spn where the narrative exists within itself as a concept RHSKJGNSDKVJHSDG#anyway this isnt a conversation starter its just hilarious to me and im trying to keep it vague bc i dont wanna target anyone love and ligh#unrebloggable post just in case <3
