"Today is the end of the Republic. The end of a regime that acquiesces to disorder. At this very moment in a system far from here, the New Republic lies to the galaxy while secretly supporting the treachery of the loathsome Resistance. This fierce machine which you have built, upon which we stand will bring an end to the Senate, to their cherished fleet. All remaining systems will bow to the First Order and will remember this as the last day of the Republic!"

To me, the way he said it with such anger and hated, it makes me wondering if this is just to boost the First Order's morale, or if he wants to get revenge on the New Republic/Resistance because the Rebel Alliance either arrested, or killed, his father Brendol Hux?

I dunno, but as I was watching this movie Hux reminded me a Rimmer of Red Dwarf, only more serious and respected.

an antagonist is mostly a villian, and plus the First Order is an evil military junta which he is a general of, ergo, Villain

Why should it be bad to kill some one who makes more damage? You must see the the other side. Ther are no Dark or Light there are only diffrent kinds of view.

I can tell you why, Alderaan, you have no idea how many people died on that planet when Tarkin decided to give the order. Of course, in real life, there are people, no scratch that, monsters who go in to blow up crowded public areas, all for a insane cause.
There are such things as good and evil, but people are forgetting about it everyday because of "grey" storytelling and opinions. If people deny these concepts more, our vision will be so blurred we won't even tell who is the one trying to blow up the city and taking many innocent lives.
And before you say anything else, yes, I did see the other side, I've seen it in every movie and tv shows, I have watched it in the news, and I have actually played the villian in my games and guess what? I made calls in there that I do not even want to do in real life. I know enough about the "other side" to say that it disturbs me greatly.
So don't come here with your grey views and censoring out the world "villian" in people's vocabulary like some bloody politically correcting politician. Even fans who like the villians all say that they are villians.

Well, generally, the real world is in shades of gray morally rather than black and white. But every so often, undeniably evil people do come along. There's just some people who do things that are inexcusably evil.

Fictional people are not real life people.It is oversimplification to categorize real life people as black and white because people have complex morality and intention(hence black-and-white thinking is false dilemma ). In real life seeing the world in absolute Black and White Morality is considered normal for small children, but seen as a far less healthy trait in adults. A person who regards the people around him as entirely good or entirely evil has this. This type of thinking is called "splitting" in psychology, and it is a symptom of Borderline Personality Disorder , a real life mental disorder also characterized by emotional instability, impulsivity, and a propensity to self-harm.Splitting (also called black and white thinking or all-or-nothing thinking) is the failure in a person's thinking to bring together both positive and negative qualities of the self and others into a cohesive, realistic whole.
Evil is a subjective term. What one person thinks is evil might be considered heroic to another, particularly when dealing with politics and warfare. So instead, let's look at why Hitler was able to accomplish the atrocities he did.
Yes, it is said that he may have been abused as a child and faced other disappointments throughout his youth, including the loss of his siblings, conflict over his desire to study art, being a soldier on the losing end of WWI and being imprisoned for a failed coup d'etat. All of these disappointments may have played a role in Hitler's future actions, but that's only speculation. After all, disappointments like those experienced by Hitler weren't unusual in the late 19th century or early 20th century. Neither were Hitler's beliefs unusual. If society had thought him a madman, his rhetoric and actions would've been promptly put to an end. As we already know, that wasn't the case.
What made Hitler dangerous is the amount of support he found. He surrounded himself with equally passionate and intelligent people who supported him. He had strong public support for his campaign for anticommunism, antisemitism, and a strong, pure, unified Germanic state.
Nothing of what Hitler believed was original to him. Pan-Germanism existed before him, as did anti-communism, and xenophobia. He was the charismatic leader who found a way to refine and turn those beliefs into mass-scale actions.
While the exact roots of Hitler's antisemitism aren't known, we do know that antisemitism was common in western Europe far before Hitler came to power. Riots, anti-Jew conferences, oppressive legislation, and group murders of Jews became increasingly common from 1744 up until WWII. The Belle Epoque (1871-1914) saw a particular rise in antisemitic sentiment and xenophobia, especially in Austria and Germany. Hitler was born into this period and came of age in an environment of increasing political extremes.
As mentioned above, he served in the German forces in WWI, blaming Germany's loss and weakness on foreigners or alien races, particularly Jews. He is not the first nor will he be the last to blame an alien group for a nation's failures. (Even today, I'm sure you've heard someone blame weakness in the US on Mexicans or Europe's problems on Arab or African immigrants.)
If you really want to summarize, you could say that Hitler's being abused, repeated disappointments, and the tumultuous environment he was born into, combined with Germany's own inferiority complex, was basically a lethal combination.
The movie "Downfall" gives an excellent characterization of the character of Hitler towards the end of the war.
As a society,do a serious dis-service to ourselves in labeling , Osama bin Ladin, Adolph Hitler , Mao Zedong , Al Gore or George Bush as "evil", primarily this is an infantile response which closes off further discussion or analysis and tends to remove "that person" or "persons" from further rational examination. Furthermore, we did not - in human history - until that point ever have a circumstance where a modern , democratic state had instituted a purposeful extermination program on the scale that the German Reich did.
Most other states did perform relocations or smaller-scale exterminations (Such as the military actions at Wounded Knee, or (at that time) the Armenian Christian "relocation".
The closest equivalent to the German "Racial Purity" program, was the social hygiene programs setup in the Southeastern US, whereby mentally retarded citizens were routinely chemically sterilized (from the 1910's thru the 1940's).
The US also - unfortunately has the closest historical analouge to a death camp, - that of Andersonville, during the Civil War. Andersonville was not so much an intentional death camp so much as a victim of circumstance and was certainly NOT unique to the Confederacy or the Union.

However, this is NOT an attempt to rehabilitate Chancellor Hitler as "not such a bad guy" after all. He was - in as much as our species has produced - a monster , but NOT a monster removed from us, but a monster very much a part of us.
Here then when we say "Hitler was evil" we purposefully blind ourselves to the more important questions, of how exactly that circumstance occurred, and the important questions which get to how do we PREVENT such atrocious policies and actions from occurring in the future.
And on this matter, the short answer is we haven't learned much at all.

Thank you.
Anyway they did not just blow up one world, they blew up an entire system and they either Toppled or Crippled a Galactic Government!!! If that's not evil I don't know what is!

In history there is no "villian" only "bad" decissions, anti-humanity and stupidy. Bad is it only from your point of view and good also. So if you think there are villians what are the villians of our time?

Are you saying Ivan the Terrible is a saint? Is Hitler a good guy? Are you considering Vlad the Impaler and his methods to be "God's Work?" Hell no!
Anti-Humanity IS evil. get it right.

Anti-Humanity is only for Human evil. "IS" is not evil but stupid. Hitler wasnt evil he was an idoit, asshole and his followers also but evil and good aren't dont existing because of the point of view. So if you could ask Hitler if he is Evil he would say no because he has thinked that what he have done was right and I mean we all know that he does thinks that should never done again. USA and other western cultures have done slavery that is also not that what is right but they thinked that is was ok in the name of their god. Crusaders also wasnt "good" people, you see there isnt only good or evil.
