** [[InvertedTrope Inverted]] in ''Film/TheRevengeOfTheSiths'', with [[TheHeavy General]] [[{{Cyborg}} Grievous]] calling Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker "''[[{{Irony}} Jedi scum!]]''" before [[IShallTauntYou putting their lightsabers with some others of his "collection"]] into his cape/coat. Of course, in final analysis, Grievous, as the leader of the Separatists, ''is'' the "unlawful scum" there. But Jedis are trained to stay serene and polite, if somehow [[DeadpanSnarker snarky]] sometimes.

** The《''making a deal with some underhanded or socially outcast allies''》 example happens and is arguably played with in ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'', with Admiral Piett making a dismissive (but discret, given getting on Vader's bad side [[BadBoss practically equals to suicide]]) comment about the bounty hunters Vader recruited, when the latter briefs them about the terms of the bounty on the ''Executor'' bridge. Just before, he said "''We don't need them''". He is later proven wrong by [[TheAce Boba]] [[TheQuietOne Fett]].

* Insults like this are a staple of [[TheEmpire authoritarian regimes]], e.g. the Nazis' "[[DirtyCommunists Jewish Bolshevists]]", [[RedsWithRockets Soviet Russia's]] "bourgeois scum", [[RedChina Maoist China's]] "feudalists" and "capitalist roaders" ('bourgeois' and 'capitalist' having [[CorruptCorporateExecutive certain connotations in those societies]]), Brazilian "subversivos" during the Brazilian dictatorship, and so on. It also happens in democratic nations with such insults as “pinko”, “reds”, “commies” and “subversives” being attached to 60s anti-war activists and other PersecutedIntellectuals during the RedScare.
