Luke should have killed Vader in ROTJ. He should have cut off Vader's hand then said "you betrayed your friends, the Jedi who raised you. You broke Obi-Wan's heart and caused him to live in exile. You killed my sister's family and killed my mother and my aunt and uncle. And now you're going to pay the price, Anakin." And then Luke kills him.
First off, every single one of those statements is inaccurate.
Anakin’s “friends” betrayed him first. He never had any real friends, except Kitster, who he left on Tatooine years ago. Obi-Wan betrayed him and turned on him. Obi-Wan did, in fact, turn Padme against him. Ahsoka abandoned him. The moment Yoda heard what happened to Anakin, he orders Obi-Wan to kill him. That was everyone Anakin cared about, except Shmi, who was dead, and Rex, who was gone.
And Obi-Wan broke his own heart by being a dumb*** and not helping Anakin or even trying to talk him down when he had the chance. And he lived in exile because of Sidious. Look up who the Emperor was, please..
None of what happened to Leia had anything to do with Vader. That all had to with Tarkin. Padme died from childbirth, literally nothing to Vader either, and even if it did, it’s not like LUke would even know that. And Beru and Owen also had nothing to do with Vader at all.
Luckily, unlike every other single person in Anakin’s so-called family (and most of the blind fandom), Luke actually cared about him.
The point of Star Wars is redemption, not “so-called” consequences that people who like to play god think others should have gone through. And what the kriff is wrong with someone who *wants* other people to suffer, anyway?
Luke was not a monster, and if he’d done that? He would have been worse than Vader ever was.
