No, I’m not talking about Lukes path being a Mary Sue. I am saying that he is from the start. He has abilities that make no sense and that he never gained during his life. It is said that because he is able to hit a womprat from a distance he is able to pilot a military vehicle through a massive battle, avoiding all fire and taking care of enemies while piloting into a trench and hitting an exhaust port.
He has abilities that he does not deserve nor did he earn throughout his life. Did he earn the abilities after the fact? Sure. But in A New Hope, Luke is the most aggressively Mary Sue character you can think of. Made even more hysterical by the fact that people will defend his insane military prowess that comes from nowhere but get genuinely angry at Rey for being able to swing a lightsaber like a baseball bat when she

raised herself on a desert planet while using a quarterstaff as her primary method of defense.

Star Wars fans are just deluded
That’s a lot of words.
Too bad I’m not reading them.
