That text post is the most Anakin thing ever, LOL.
It's funny, but it's also so incredibly true! He really did have so much potential, he could have been a brilliant Jedi Knight and I think that's so much of what the people around him saw in him. They loved him so much that it was next to impossible for them to believe that he was capable of these terrible things.
Padme, Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, they all had to struggle to believe that Anakin really did those things, because he hid his problems from them for so long, no matter how many times they asked him to talk. And I get why he did it, he felt like they would never understand, he didn't want to let go of those feelings that made him special (as Palpatine said), but they ended up eating him instead. His own dragon controlled him instead of him controlling it.
