Hmm...yeah, that's...kind of bugging me. The more I research Star Wars/hear about it from my friends, the more I hear of this...conflation of "passion automatically equals hate". And, uhhh...no.
No, no, no, and well...no.
Fine, the Sith/Empire are not nice people. But I don't think such a conflation is very healthy, least of which because such passion can often be directed at those you love (uhh...Jedi aren't allowed attachments, right???) and stemming from your love of those people, so you can love protecting others.

Personal chefs and a droid?!?! But...what if those aren't there? Say, like, Padmé had to get knocked down a pay grade or pay day is moved from every other Friday to every other month or something. How would Darth Vader cook and make bath water now??? :O
