Three possibilities:
No they don't.
They kinda do see some vague similarities (there is a prison) if they squint but it's different because reasons.
They do but they think it's woke garbage anyway.
I'm sorry to inform you that there are right-wing Star Wars fans. Just as there are right wing whovians and trekkies and bronies. No it doesn't make sense but there it is.
It makes perfect sense once you realize that their media literacy is through the basement. Regular literacy too, I'd wager. 54% of adults (in America) read below the sixth-grade level. Source.
