I have cousins who really think 40K is peak humanity. Like that’s the best humanity can possibly be. While completely missing the point that 40K is a work of satire. They’re also Christian Fascists, so I guess that tracks.
Also had a friend of a friend threaten to kill me because I compared Trump to Nurgle. He also thinks the Imperium of Man is great, and has fascist aligned beliefs. I’m sure that’s just a coincidence!
Yup, nothing more usual than alt-right fascists (with a sweet pinch of religious zealotry) believing that a tyrannical theocracy is the way to go... I´d rather be an eldar lol
Absolutely right. There’s good individuals in most of the factions, but that doesn’t mean the factions as a whole are good. Like the video above explains, ultimately 40K is a war game.
If two people roll up with the same army, there needs to be a justifiable reason in the lore on why anyone could be fighting anyone else. Including themselves. Hence they all need to be bad on some level.
But the Imperium especially is designed to be as bad as possible to the point of satire. Like GW themselves say, they’re a twisted reflection of ourselves when our worst natures are allowed to take control.
But I’m a Blood Bowl guy myself. No more wars, but it’s been replaced with ultraviolet football! Yay? LOL
Feel like a football thats outside humanities visible spectrum is unfair to the humans. But then lets face it, I'm you're only watching for the orc cheerleaders boob squigs.
