Why CHOPPER is ACTUALLY the villain of Star Wars: Rebels.

A very necessary thread <3
Lets begin. In season 2 of Star Wars Rebels, Hera describes Chopper "Oh i know that droid, he's always only thinking of himself." and well, she's not wrong! In that same episode he abandons the ghost crew to go buy a new leg that matches his other one.
Now, which side of the force is selfish? The sith. and as a hero, Chopper does NOT fit the standard. Now back to where we were. Later he puts himself and AP-5 in danger MULTIPLE times to protect his robotic leg. Now, here's where it gets juicy.
Chopper and AP-5 find Atallon. Now,if they hadnt found it and the rebellion got sent to another planet,maybe the attack on Lothal, and everything else would've played out completely differently. Way less losses, and the rebellion might have had a better chance. but were not done:
Ever wonder how in Season 3 episode 7, imperial supercommandos, Fenn Rau takes control of the Phantom, but why didnt Chopper do anything? Why not override the ship and make them stop/crash or hell when they landed stopped Fenn Rau, but instead he decides to tease Ezra instead.
Now another point but why did Chopper ONLY like Hera?? Well, he needed to have the trust of the leader of the ghost crew on his side. Kanan wouldn't have fallen for it because he isnt as gullible as Hera so it wouldve been harder to get away with his plans.
Finally, in the Rebels Finale, when the ghost crew NEEDS Chopper to override controls you know what happens??? He "Gets fried". Seems pretty convenient doesn't it??When he's needed most it he doesn't help. Obviously he wanted to delay the rebels so they would lose.
Thank you for reading this thread. I am certain this is how Dave Filoni wanted Chopper to be examined as and im happy to help you all understand him better. Thank you for your time <3
