The first 10 minutes of A More Civlized Age's episode on Star Wars: Revenge Of The Sith (film) https://amorecivilizedage.net/10-star-wars-episode-iii-revenge-of-the-sith ties into Patrick Blanchfield's reference (in KYE'S Freud and Politics https://know-your-enemy-1682b684.simplecast.com/episodes/unlocked-freud-and-politics-w-pat-blanchfield) to the Primal Father.

Palpatine as primal father (greedy murderous corrupting power accumulative rage monster) is a pretty good reading.
