Yes, the Harkonnens are very focused on resource extraction, environment degradation, have a unique culture... but Atreides also has its assassins (enough to own a Mentat as a 'master of assassins'), propaganda arms, and were on a path to severely upturn the landsraad.
In any event, yeah, team Harkonnen were creepier. But goodness good gravy, the Atriedes bench had some bad dudes.
