Baby Girl I Cut Pears In Ways You Couldnt Imagine

baby girl i cut pears in ways you couldn’t imagine

one of the funniest and most in character things ever is Ahsoka mentioning the whole Vader thing once and Anakin defensively going "is that what this is about" and rolling his eyes like "oh my god I went on ONE 20 year rampage and no one can let it go, I'm on my apology tour right now what more do you people want"

This.

Anakin’s choices in RotS were entirely his own—he had the physical capability and the agency to choose the Light, and every single won of his actions was a conscious choice.

But he never would’ve made the choices he did without the 13 years of Palpatine grooming him specifically to be his evil minion.

It’s possible to recognize that Anakin’s character flaws led to his Fall and that the atrocities he committed as Vader were entirely by his own will, while also recognizing that Palpatine is the one who exploited those flaws into actual homicide.

And everyone in Anakin’s life, from the Jedi Order to Obi-Wan to Padme to Ahsoka, who gets blamed for somehow failing to stop Anakin’s Fall, had absolutely no idea that they were up against The Literal Manifestation Of Evil. They saw Anakin’s flaws and reacted to them with the information they knew—that Anakin was a good man at heart with a deeply traumatizing childhood who didn’t always make the best decisions. They did not know that Anakin’s flaws had been fed and nurtured and encouraged by The Evilest Guy To Ever Evil for as long as they had known him, so of course they didn’t freak out when Anakin fucked up! They all thought Anakin was just an imperfect guy, not the victim and end game of the cunning machinations of Literal Satan!

These people didn’t always get it right, and every single character at some point misunderstood the root of Anakin’s issues and how to actually help (this is not to say that Anakin was communicating perfectly and everyone was just ignoring him, because nuance exists) and yes, sometimes those attempts to help did more harm than good, and yes, those mistakes fostered Anakin’s distrust that led to his Fall—but without Palpatine actively using every single misstep to his advantage, those mistakes would not have made Anakin turn into a homicidal maniac. It was Palpatine turning good-intentioned, well-meaning fuckups from the people in Anakin’s life, who are imperfect and have character flaws in their own right, into Sith Propaganda and repeating this constantly for 13 years.

Sorry to hijack your post, OP, but this fandom playing the blame-game while ignoring the obvious archetypal villain drives me fucking bonkers lol

“bla bla it’s the jedi’s fault” “bla bla it’s anakin’s fault” “bla bla it’s obi wans fault”

WHY ARE WE NOT BLAMING MR. EVIL MC EVIL OVER THERE. THE GUY WHO HAS MULTIPLE NOVELS DETAILING THE IMMENSE JOY HE GETS OUT OF MAKING CHILDREN VIOLENT. GUYS????

"Nothing in Star Wars is consistent anyway, make transportation take however long or short a time as the plot requires, half-ass logistics like the writers do, make your own canon and do whatever you want" I constantly say to other people yet I act as though in my own fanfic if I don't learn everything there is to know about the interiors of Star Wars ships, refrigeration, technology, and the economy in order to determine exactly what equioment a cargo ship carrying medicines would have I will simply DIE
