Star Wars question

[SgtSpiderMan]

What's their motivation for universal domination? They were minding their own business.

Satiating their desire for human or wookie flesh.

If the rebels made it off Endor why not the Ewoks?

So our heroes, the rebels, left an entire species to die. That's pretty bleak.

I recall an episode of News Radio, set in the future: "The Death Star was destroyed today in a senseless act of Rebel terrorism. Fortunately, Lord Vader escaped without injury. Our hearts go out to the families of the victims."

the star wars universe is pretty fucking bleak in general. check how those fuckers treat droids. even the good guys treat them like absolute shit despite the fact that they are clearly sentient beings with thoughts, feelings and fears.

They have civil rights in the Star Trek universe -- though I always found it implausible that, in a galactic sector with several high-tech spacefaring civilizations, Data was the first self-aware AI ever built.
