      Well okay but Star Wars itself tried to avoid actually having "evil races", even though the EU went back on that with the Planet of Hats thing (every member of Jabba's species being a gangster etc)

      It was a big deal for Star Wars to have all the main good guys and bad guys be human, and especially to imply that the Empire is a human supremacist organization, in direct contrast to the pulp space opera it was based on (Flash Gordon with Ming the Merciless)

      Honestly I'd give them only limited credit there because so many Star Wars aliens are transparently just props? like, narratively.

      It is obviously a human-centric narrative that gives you permission to treat alien species as "ethnic" side characters because they're not human, yes, and that's not great Lucas directly saying Chewbacca is just supposed to be a human-shaped dog

          That's still arguably better than having a whole narrative about fighting aliens as the evil other though

          there is also the mythology of ‘balance’ in SW it can be said that it shows that the struggles of moral agents will simply always be pressing matters, that a balance must always be sought or travesty will strike
