For once i would like to have non evil dark side protagonist. Some of them from Old Republic era up to Lumiya and Jacen even made a lot of sense sometimes, but we can’t have this in murican media, so they immediately have madness and genocide switch in brain turned on.
The road to hell is paved with good intentions. His resentment against the jedi order is understandable, his actions and behaviour that followed from it is quite morally bankrupt and I couldn’t describe him as grey. Tragicomically he was just another pawn on the chessboard, playing for the benefit of Sheev.
That’s what i mean, they are always forcibly set to evil even when it don’t fit (Dooku also did a lot of nonsensical evil for the evil’s sake). It was fine when SW was a fairytale about good vs evil but now when they aspite to be more grey and complicated this is a thing that should also come naturally. Especially irking that the light and dark side were clearly modelled after yin and yang.

The dark side is literally evil, though. Count Dooku is more grayish.
