    Well thats a very liberal application of genocide. The Sand people incident might be spun as a racial killing, but genocide? That’s way too much.

      C-3PO was a parts kit. It wasn’t that Anakin designed his own brand new droid, he gathered enough parts from scrap yards to mash together his own based on schematics that would have been available to anyone who regularly works on droids. In our time it was about as impressive of a feat as building a bookshelf out of lumber you salvaged from a local dump pile. Impressive for a boy that age, but anyone with the time and tools could do it.

        Ehhh, I would say it’s probably more like assembling a functioning PC out of various parts found in dumpsters, etc. Definitely a much more impressive feat imo
