My new Anakin theory

[whisky]

I used to think Anakin only started to do bad things in episode 2, but then I thought about him in the fighter, shooting the droids in the hanger, no big deal they are machines but then he blew up the whole Shi with many living Nimodians on board, and was praised for it, thus planting the seeds in his mind, that killing living beings is a good thing.

Later after killing the sand people he gets sex with Padme as a reward further associating killing with positive results.

There is no wonder he found it so easy to turn to the dark side.

I was always a bit weirded out by the fact he was groomed by the pedophile Padme. (maybe I was jealous but whatever)

He was subconsciously Jedi Mind Tricking Padme into loving him the whole time.

My Anakin theory is that Lucas got lucky with "American Graffiti" and talented people around him saved "Star Wars" from being a mess in post-production. And on a related note: https://babylonbee.com/news/god-good-powerful-allow-star-wars-prequels
