I absolutely adore WH40k lore. It’s just so ridiculously over the top.
Because of this, a quarter of my YT recommendations are random incels moaning about the “woke infiltration” of the WH40k community, when those same people have probably never set foot in a games workshop store in their lives. The people who actually show up in person, are part of the community, they’re in on the joke. They get the satire.
I have no goddamn clue how you can simultaneously know about how absolutely batshit insane the entire government structure of the empirium is, read about how the empirium frequently just forgets about entire solar systems due to their incompetence and paranoia, and still think this is somehow pro-fascist literature.
The funniest is them just absolutely ignoring the whole Roboute Guilliman thing where he wakes up, looks around, and is so appaled and shocked by what the empirium had become that he nearly noped the fuck out of there before getting a pep talk from his dad.

Robot Gorillaman was fine with the totalitarian autocracy and casual xeno genocide of the 30k era, but even he is aghast at the sheer pointless tyranny of the 40k Imperium. Goes to show it can always get worse in the Grimdarkness of the Grimdark Future.

Absolutely. I think for the majority of the writers, the pointlessness of it all is the main theme.
