    Death Sideous is the Emperor of a Galactic Absolute monarchy that revolves on utter supremacy and worshiping of the military to maintain its power. An empire that commits countless horrific war crimes, genocides, enslavement, and so on; and is also based largely upon Nazi Germany

    I don’t think Sideous is a leftist.

        They were a coalition mix, they also had communists, anarchists, ethnic independence fighters and so on.

        Plus end all be all, I’d take a liberal democracy over Nazi Germany.

            I don’t think there is anything in Star Wars that is socialist, maybe except some primitive communists and small scale utopians here and there (and definitely zero marxism), it’s one of those super common sci-fi settings where the horrors of capitalism are shown both in micro and in macro scale, but they are inevitable without alternative and the best people can hope for is to have relatively unmurderous liberal regime in place and some crumbs from imperialism flying their direction. At least untill the next iteration of Republic crumble into the next iteration of fascist Sith empire (that happened at least 6 times in expanded universe).
