Why Anakin Skywalker should’ve been removed from the Jedi Order for sexual harassment

Raised as a slave with a greedy master, torn from his mother, possessed of power he hasn't the character to control, deeply insecure, groomed by Palpatine to be arrogant, and all they see is sexual predator. SMFH.

I refuse to believe that this is anything other than an attempt at satire.

Strike 1

As far as we can tell the Council had no awareness of his actions. How can you get of someone for something you don't know about?

Strike 2: And where can Amidala go? Her life is in danger, and she has no choice but to stay with Skywalker, who is at turns her protector and her predator. On top of all of this, Skywalker has supernatural powers — he’s one of the strongest beings in the entire galaxy. Talk about a power dynamic!

This is willful ignorance. She could have contacted the Council, loaded with people far more powerful than Anakin, to have something done about him if that were the case. Again this writer is trying to argue that the Council should have somehow known about Anakin's actions and then taken action against him about them.

Strike 3: Skywalker takes this moment, in front of an assortment of nobility and elected officials, to throw a tantrum and assert his dominance by telling her that he’s “in charge of security.”

Again why is this writer expecting the Council to punish Anakin for things they don't know about? Are they expecting Anakin to openly report what he was doing? There was a reason he was keeping his relationship with Amidala a secret from the Council. Hint. Its because the Council does have rules against jedi getting into relationships.

Strike 4: It’s shocking that the Jedi Council, or at least some of its members, like Masters Yoda and Windu, didn’t know about these flagrant violations of professional and personal boundaries. After all, can’t they use the force?

The Force from what I understand doesn't allow direct telepathy.

To hell with this writer even if it was satire.

Anakin Skywalker was an overpowered, confused kid with poor social skills on top of immense responsibilities. But actually talking about how to help him this clown decides to throw him under the #metoo train to score points.

The most stupid thing I've ever read.
