At their core, these people are bullies. The cruelty is the point.
“It’s everywhere now” is such a dope line. No matter how much tyrants want to suppress the spirit of rebellion and desire for freedom they can’t kill an idea.
“The frontier of the rebellion is everywhere. The imperial need for control is so desperate because it’s so unnatural. Tyranny requires constant effort.” -Nemik
Real world parallels are immense

"Yeah, the galaxy is scary and dangerous, but… everywhere we went, even the worst places, there were good people, too." WHAT A GOOD STAR WARS LINE. The galaxy should be a scary and dangerous place, but ultimately about hope and the light that exists in it. Even if it's just a pinprick of light, a single flame against a galaxy of darkness, that goodness matters. That hope in a terrible time and place matters. Skeleton Crew was a series that was very much Goonies In Space and it stuck to that feeling, but it didn't forget that Star Wars is a story about hope and kindness and caring about other people, even when it's not beneficial to you personally. The people who helped those kids, not because they were personally invested in them, but simply because they cared about other people, that is what the underlying message of a Star Wars show should be about. Skeleton Crew understood the Star Wars assignment.
I can't believe the horse is back in the fucking hospital
