The space cops are full of shit, but so are the “a balanced amount of atrocities and cruelty for the sake of enlightened self interest is best, actually” dipshits that are effectively like the libertarians of the setting (if they exist in the setting at all): a bogus alternative to the two-party duality that isn’t really better.
If Star Wars had better writing and consistent leftists on the writing team, there’d be room for Liberation Ideology Jedi. Similarly, the wizards in Harry Potter are status quo oligarch assholes running a shadow government and if there was better writing there’d be room for comrade wizards forming communes to make magic available to all.
HP setting’s fucking nonsense. literally would only take one wizard to say “hey asswipes, magic is real. here is literally infinite bread. if they try to wipe your memory of this i am literally just going to transform into a fucking bird or something, fly somewhere else, and do it again. let’s go kill every world leader.”

This was apparently the original concept for Qui Gon and it’s still supposed to be true in the background that he was like this and the council hated him for it, it just frustratingly never actually showed up in any actual media
