Why Sidious was never discovered by the Jedi as a child

What do you think of StupendousWave's new video on this?

I thought it was well done.

Any critiques?

Sidious concealed the Force in him so well, that even he didn't know he had it. Also his parents were stuck up and probably didn't want any of their children to become Jedi, so he was never tested.

The Jedi were a collective hive of failure.

The Jedi order ineptitude could have been also a reason.

That is why Dooku left it. You should respect him more as I do Maul.

Yeah, when Sidious repulses Plagueis' attempts at mental intrusion, Plagueis wonders if the Force was so strong in Palpatine that it concealed itself.

Palpatine was a ginger. Gingers don´t have a soul. /therad

He allowed himself to be killed without uttering one syllable to try to save his own life. Pathetic thy name is Count Dooku.

Yeah he took it like a man unlike Maul. He was going to beg in the original script but Christopher Lee refused to perform it until Lucas changed it. Just like Pre-Vizsla, Dooku had discipline and accepted his inferiority to Anakin.

There's a great video on this too if you're interested:

After Quanchi said he dislikes Thrawn, I've concluded that he in general despises dangerous, cultured, intellectual characters. I'm not sure why. Maybe he's jealous.
