    The Sith and the Empire didn’t help anyone either though, they made existence considerably worse for everyone other than a select few. They weren’t saviours or good guys, they were evil despots who sought to use lies to overthrow the existing power structure so they could fill the void with their totalitarianism.

      What this meme is pointing out though is that they didn’t just use lies to overthrow the existing power structure, they also used truths.
