Elon, you are Snow, Vader, Smith, Mathews, and creedy, all wrapped up in one and minus the spine of any of them.

No Vader had a tragic upbringing and deserved pity.

Sidious is too smart or cool same with most other antagonists in Star wars.
Jabba the Hutt would be the appropriate comparison.

Hes actually like a fat version of Judge Smails from Caddy shack

This whole administration is just Pakleds and TNG era Ferengi with a Goa'uld as head of HHS.

This is so brave to say, but you're right!

His villain origin story is he never got the free bowl of soup after buying that hat

But definitely not good at anything resembling a sport.

"The world needs ditch diggers, too!" - Judge Smails

Yup, I'd say it's an apt description.

Jabba the Musk

I was thinking of Nute Gunray.

u/KingErroneous 1d ago

No, tRump is Jabba.

There's a whole dynasty of those little slugs. They can both be Hutts. But if you're looking for a fatter one, true enough, it's probably Trump as Jabba.

Vader deserves a degree of empathy, not pity. He had a traumatic upbringing, but he still acted like a petulant teenager and plunged the galaxy into darkness because he missed his mummy.

To be fair, when raised by religious group that taughts you that you should suppress your emotions instead of teaching you how to deal with them in healthy manner your growth as a person will most likely be stunted. That and not having anyone to confide in with your most traumatic experiences and old man that suddenly walks in with all the answers will probably fuck up you judgment.

At least Vader actually built something.

u/snowfloeckchen 1d ago

He didn't like sand, if that counts as an excuse

u/Altruistic_Bass539 1d ago

He's more like Jar Jar Binks stumbling through life with an annoying speech pattern and voice. Jar Jars success was gained mostly through luck, just like Elon.

u/bendstraw 1d ago

Jabba ran the most lucrative and successful criminal enterprise in the galaxy for decades, Trump could only dream

u/Polkawillneverdie17 23h ago

He's not Vader. He's Bib Fortuna.

u/Woooosh-if-homo 23h ago

And Vader actually did love his children

u/VoteforNimrod 3h ago

Loved Luke so much he cut off his hand.

u/LSOreli 19h ago

Nah, Jabba had what you'd call "thieves honor" and stuck to morally grey principles. Elon doesn't care about agreements or doing the honorable thing.

u/voppp 16h ago

Vader was at least scary lmao

u/ExcessiveEscargot 10h ago

Jabba the Hutt was pretty competent in his role. So that's a no, too.

u/ulfric_stormcloack 3h ago

Vader was badass, musk Is krenic, or one of the many powerful administrative assholes in andor
