DUmb ass article.
Anakin was a young man who was in love and being told to do the most unnatural and unhealthy thing and ignore his feelings and emotions. Its impossible and no human jedi has ever done it or been successful in doing so.
He had a wife he loved that he had a force premonition would die and he had children. He was scared and everytime he went to the Jedi they told him to ignore all that bullshyt, blah blah blah, well he was married and he wasn't going to ignore shyt that was his wife and she had his children. He was going to save her, and the only person who showed him that he cared about him as a person was Palpetine. He is the only one that didn't tell him to ignore his emotion, he told him he would help him protect what he held dear, and he did it.
Now add on top of that the Jedi were content ignoring him and telling him to just deal with shyt, but when it came time to arrest palpetine and follow the law they claimed to support Mace Windu was talking about killing Palpatine off the bat and not taking him to the senate and bringing charges. The Jedi basically showed him with their actions and words he didn't mean shyt to them and that they told him didn't mean shyt to them they would ignore it and pick and choose how they felt.
It was natural for him to turn to the Sith, his turn was a reflection on the failure of the Jedi order.
Lucas's direction of the prequels was so terrible this isn't shown fully, you read the novels of the PT you will see Yoda say the prevous Jedi failed entirely, which is why he and Obi choose not to hide the twins and train them. Yoda said they would need to gain life experience outside of the Jedi way going forward.

Jedi live like monks. Anakin broke the rules, was sloppy and undisciplined, and set up just the kind of compromising situation the rules were made to prevent. That's not bad writing that's the entire premise for the whole trilogy

Jedi broke their own rules when they went to take Palpatine out instead of arresting him.
Anakin won the clone wars for them and defeated the alliance for the Republic.
Anakin had a mother who was still a slave and those idiots didn't even try to free her to bring her with him, they took him away from his mother and he had to deal with her getting murdered at a later time. Then they told him to forget about his wife dying and just roll with them. Jedi caused its own collapse with their complete ineffective methods and unchanging rules.
Outside a few of them, I was happy Sidious got in that ass.
Only jedi worth a damn were the ones people ignored or who were outcasts like Qui Gon Jin, real people who weren't slaves to outdated rules.
The Clone Wars really fill in a lot of the blanks too. Anakin was out there putting in work.

She died from broken heart syndrome. I don't think she wanted to die

So losing your lover is more devastating then taking care of your children. No wonder so many women die when a man does not want to be the father of his children.
Nah, Mace was right to try to kill Palpatine. There was no point in trying to arrest him and put him on trial when he controlled everything.
Also, they didn't know about Anakin's wife (since he wasn't supposed to have one), as far as Yoda knew it was just a friend of his. Really, the whole situation is Anakin's fault for breaking the Jedi rules and keeping it a secret. If he wanted to have a wife and kids, fine, but he should've left the Jedi then. Although I do agree the Jedi should've done something about Anakin's mother.

Nah Mace was wrong and Anakin told him the principles they told him to uphold when it came to him, and he said yeah but fukk that shyt. They had no priniples in the end, mainly because Palpatine had played them so thoroughly. They were just struggling to survive.
The fact that they never realized Anakin was different than their usual apprentacies tells you the Jedi's stupidity. He was a slave, he had a mother, you aren't going to make a little boy forget about his mother. You aren't going to make a man forget about his wife and not do whatever it takes for his wife and child. The kid had a strong premonition via the force and the only two people who gave a damn about him was Obi, who they seperated him from, and Palpatine.
They were outdated idiots, Palpatine wuldn't have even been discovered if it wasn't for Anakin.

Women suffer from it 90 percent of the time but it's not typically fatal. Maybe you should read about it.

If Qui-Gon Jinn stayed alive I think Anakin would never fall into Palpatine's grasp.

You are right, Qui-Gon would have told him that real life man shyt, he needed a father figure, not a big brother like Obi.
