When people don't like Anakin Skywalker, they always do this thing where they need to find some moral reason why the character shouldn't be liked. They typically do this by over exaggerating or down right changing the things that actually happened by taking things out of context or removing pivotal parts of the story.
Anakin didn't fall to the dark side by himself, he was actively being groomed by a Sith Lord and was emotionally neglected throughout his childhood by the jedi. Predators target children who are comprised because of the negligence of their guardians/parents, the Jedi played a part in his fall. Saying this doesn't mean he was faultless and I never understand why people think it does.
Anakin isn't the dictator, you're completely removing Palpatine from the story, Anakin or Darth Vader to be more specific was the dictator's (Palpatine's) weapon and this was known in universe, Leia's comments about Vader's leash is proof of that. (Yes she was talking about Tarkin holding Vader's leash but the point still stands that Vader is seen as the tyrant's attack dog not the tyrant himself)
Anakin didn't just choose to kills the tuskens out of no where. They tortured his mother to death and he reacted out of anger and grief. The story doesn't position this situation as a good thing, Anakin himself doesn't see killing the tuskens as good. Padmé calming him down was a wise decision to make. (Yelling at a person who just had a breakdown and their mentally well-being is comprised will always make the situation worse, calming them down is literally always the best action)
Anakin wasn't destined to fall, Padmé and Obi-wan were shocked for a reason, just because you as a viewer knew he was going to be Vader from the start (because the OT came out first) does not mean that his fall was inevitable in universe, and no, him showing signs of not being well mentally does not mean they were signs that he was going to be Vader from the start, it's signs that he is not doing well mentally.
Padme isn't some unintelligent victim who didn't know what she was getting herself into, she was smart, and was correct more times than not. Hell her son quite literally vindicates her later on and people somehow still think she was wrong.
Listen you don't have to like Anakin, you also don't need to find some grand moral reasoning. Don't like him on your own though, moral grand standing is absolutely unnecessary, and do yourself a favour and pay attention to the story, at least have reasons that actually happened.
