There really needs to be a variant on the Goodwin's Law that states "As an internet Star Wars discussion grows longer, the probability of a debate as to whether the Empire is evil approaches one."

At that point we can conclude that just like in the threads described by the original Goodwin's Law, the Star Wars thread will continue, but the actual information content will be zero.

Given all the Nazi imagery they used for the Empire, it’s really more of a corollary to Godwin’s Law.
