He is now not only seduced by it, but also hypnotised by it.

This is why the Emperor said to Luke in RotJ "strike him Vader down and take your father's place at my side ". NO WAY!! Luke would not have consciously joined Palpatine but Palpatine knew that there was a line and once it was crossed, Luke, just like Anakin, would be enslaved, hypnotized and powerless to fight the control of the dark side. Even if he doesn't agree with something crying after the Seperatists slaughter , he is "useless to resist".

After Anakin "pledges himself," he starts using the Sidious voice until he puts on the hood, and then he starts talkin like the Emperor. Confusing, I know.
