9. Darth Vader
Before Vader got his iconic suit and name, he was Anakin Skywalker. In the new trilogy we’re treated to a scene where Anakin and Padmé frolic through a meadow on the planet Naboo. It’s here that we get a real taste of Anakin’s statist nature.
Anakin: “We need a system where the politicians sit down and discuss the problem, agree what’s in the best interests of all the people, and then do it.
Padmé: “That is exactly what we do. The trouble is that people don’t always agree. In fact, they hardly ever do.”
Anakin: “Then they should be made to.”
Padmé: “By whom? Who’s going to make them?”
Anakin obviously believes the state should, since he eventually joins the Empire to become the movie personification of evil, Darth Vader. Star Wars is telling us that statism is inherently evil.
