"Indeed there are." He can entirely and without pause agree.
"I detest slavery Luke. I abhor the practice, and wish to scrub its stain from the galaxy. The anti-alien sentiment of the Empire should not be tolerated." Those are in Vader's opinion the biggest flaws in the Empire. "Then you have Moffs and Directors wishing to glut themselves on Imperial credits, some vanity project or superweapon nonsense, enslaving entire systems to mine the resources and feast while their people starve and riot." There's a shift in Vader - he has a captive audience for once, one he never needs concern himself with tattling to Palpatine, and he has decades in resentment in the misgovernance of the Empire and its leaders seeking to serve only themselves.
He really didn't like politicains. Hated most of them in fact.
"Which has poisoned the Imperial military forces. Seeing their Troopers as nothing but cogs to use and replace, not men who will bleed and die for leaders they believe in." He knows - its why his men are so frighteningly effective. "Casualties are simply a total number, not people."
"I fought the first and last battle of the Clone Wars. I am not blind as to the cost of war my son. I want my people to have peace, security, justice. It is why the Hutts are muzzled, even if I would rather have be removed altogether."
