There is nothing within the lore of 40k that would justify the existence of the Imperium on the basis of the fact that the Imperium is inherently genocidal, and in the wise words of the best Star Trek character: pic.twitter.com/k832f8XAuy

Exactly. There's a point where I feel like if you play the Imperium you need to be willing to just lean in to the fact that you're knowingly playing as the faction that's on the wrong side of history instead of trying to contort yourself into a pretzel trying to justify them.

This but unironically. Cute twink shit like pretending your plastic army men are the good guys, and the others are the bad guys, detracts from what makes 40k interesting as a setting. Tau were a mistake. Unfortunately the game's attracted so many twinks (derogatory) who are so terminally direction brained that the idea that humanity is the good guys has gained some canonical basis (see the recent drama around female custodes). I thought the imperium was cool when they were the most efficient faction at murdering humans :marseyindignant:
