Rewatching the prequels got me thinking… what if the Jedi weren’t the heroes we assume they were?
They were rigid, political, emotionally repressed, and completely blind to Palpatine sitting right in front of them. Anakin didn’t just “turn evil” — the Order kind of failed him at every step.
If the Jedi were supposed to be wise guardians of peace, how did they miss literally everything?
Curious what you all think:

Curious what you all think:
- Did the Jedi’s rules push Anakin away?
- Were they too involved in politics and war?
- If they had been less strict, would Order 66 still have happened?
- Were the Jedi flawed… or just human?
