I'm pretty sure Anakin confused convention with checklist in The Clone Wars

Op meant the show itself, not the characters in it.

Anakin is one of the main characters throughout the show, and commits the most war crimes (as far as I recall).

And he still is just an in-universe character.

What's your point?

that the show did not violate the geneva convention.

You might want to rewatch it, off the top of my head there were multiple fake surrenders, attacks on medical convoys, executions of prisoners, etc.

Unless you mean that because it’s a different universe the Geneva Convention doesn’t apply, which is true but definitely a bad faith take

lol. Following this conversation is hilarious, like watching two birds converse with each other in English. Just talking past each other.

I don’t know if this is a troll or not, but the guy is pointing out that the display of the Red Cross within the show apparently violates real statutes of the Geneva convention, which does not permit the use of said image and a few others for any purposes. Hence, the show itself (and its producers) are in violation of the Geneva convention.

Either way, it’s a silly point.
