look at Dooku. Dooku became a Sith to get rid of the worthless Republic Senate which had been oppressing people for years and doing absolutely nothing to help those they "represented." He dreamed of an government where power rested in a benevolent dictator who would act for the people.
I am yet to see evidence of any dictatorship being "benevolent".
Dooku ceased to exist when he became sith. Therefore there was no longer any benevolence to him, more like malevolence.
