Well, sometimes those who opposed them. At least in the Old Republic era, the Sith just loved killing other Siths to prove they were tuffer and strongerr than them. Exceptions existed, but those are unique because of it. Which is the entire reason the Rule of Two was established. And it almost worked, the Jedi were nearly wiped out by Palpatines scheming not being interrupted by having to fend off dozens of other Darths, Lords, and their apprentices.

Anyway, the thing about the Empire is that they're fairly discriminatory towards non-humans who lack force-sensitivity, and even those that had it but weren't of a select few races were treated as lucky scum and tended to get the Sith version of the Full Metal Jacket treatment.
