Is Emperor Palpatine the end goal a Nietzsche's philosophy?

people need to stop with all the pop-philosophy cultural referencing crap.

Jung was highly influenced by Nietzsche

The book was actually better than the movie.

Sheev had many of the same issues as Hitler, he wastes his effort on politics. Sheev doesn't give a fuck about their feels or opinions but even concerning yourself with herding them was considered not worth the time of an Ubermensch to Nietzsche. Men are to the Ubermensch as apes are to men.

Sheev is a complete moral relativist. In other books, he denies the force has a light or dark side and says this is all abstraction of human minds of a power that can't be comprehended in such basic moralistic terms. He gains this perspective from his master, who thought all of the Sith rules were just stupid superstitions, as he kills his master, Plagueis essentially recites the 'God is dead' line and says he's abolishing all of the bullshit rules and ceremonies since they've outlived their usefulness.

The Plagueis novel is actually one of the few pieces of SW pulp worth reading desu. Plagueis is both a skeptic and a mystic, he thinks the force could be understood in a fully scientific manner one day. But he uses some mystical methods he doesn't fully understand just because they work.

The entire fall of the republic is essentially just a spread out movie version of Plutarch's lives. Palpatine is basically a combination Caesar-Augustus and Anakin models Caesar.

I've been thinking of getting some SW books, which ones would you recommend?

I don't even think such as Zarathustra has ever even existed yet, where he was something far less than the overman. The companions of zarathustra would strive for the overman that their great grandchildren could possibly even hope to be close to it.
