Anakin was always a bad guy

I know it’s a troll post, but an accurate understanding of Anakin is understanding the failure and arrogance of the council. So focused on a prophecy they ignored everything else around them, which allowed cracks to be infiltrated and expanded, all the up until their own walls were collapsing in on them.

Anakin was just a side effect. The first three movies could easily be called the Tragedy of Skywalker. He’s a villain due to circumstance, not so much choice.
