How stupid does an entire galaxy need to be to constantly get duped and subverted by some of the most obviously evil characters in storytelling?

>>736344270>entire galaxyThe entire galaxy was never duped, in almost every era the majority of the galaxy were either neutral or outright opposed to the bad guys and very few planets openly supported them.
OP are you genuinely retarded- the bad guys dont pop out and announce to the entire galaxy "i am the bas guy im here to kill you all!" they literally manipulate and coerce several different groups into doing the actual heavy lifting.

>>736345962They literally built a planet killing device with the intent of terrifying the entire galaxy, dangling it above them as a preemptive measure. Then blew a planet up for no reason.

>>736346918the funniest thing is, they didnt even blew up some third world shithole no one cared about. The first act was to destroy a very well known, respected, historied core world planet that dated back to the earlierst days of galactic history.No one will bat an eye if you bomb Ngubu Village in Somalia. But people WILL bat an eye if you eradicate a first world city like Florence, Boston or Munich.
>>736347309Sometimes I wonder if The Empire thought that far ahead into how the galaxy would react. Did they assume their citizens were so demoralized they wouldn't retaliate?
>>736347309Alderaan shot first. It was self defence
>>736347392Tarkin himself said so in New Hope. "Fear will keep them in line. Fear of this battlestation."The timeline of events itself is bonkers, PR wise. Imagine you´re a galactic citizen and you hear "the emperor just dissolved the galactic senate". 2 or 3 days later, the first thing that happens after your representation was removed from government, they destroy the first world planet of cultured people.
>>736344270That's the point. It happens all the time throughout history irl.
