CONTEXT!
Warhammer 40k is a fictional dramatic opera about genocide and superhuman daddy issues. In 40k future humanity, after a lot of catastrophic galaxy-wide wars have regressed from a star trek Utopia back into a ultra totalitarian religious dictatorship, where all of humanity worships (or is forced to worship by pain of genocide) the comatose corpse of the God-Emperor sitting on a giant hospital ventilator. Everything sux and is mega dystopian, and traitors (rebels/dissidents) are called synonemously as heretics, so show how entrenched emperor worship is.
The main thing putting 40k universe apart from all the other Starshit nerd franchises is the perpetual genocides, and specifically the XENOPHOBIA Humanity hates all other sentient life and aliens, and are prone to genocide all alien life
So art and fanfiction regularly places the totalitarian humanity (called the Imperuim of Man) in the position of genociding aliens, sometimes for fun, the Imperuim of Man is depicted fighting aliens from other well known franchises, like star trek, star wars, Xenomorphs, and other series just for fun. It's common
You'd think with such a turbo edgy universe with chud shit like genocide, slavery, neo-feudalism and racial supremacy being core themes of the universe that a more right wing-ish crown would make up the core fanbase But on Fricking reddit, and especially /r/Grimdank (a meme sub), it's often filled with turbo ultra omega soys
And these turbo soys will b-word about the most typical bullshit we have grown tired from reddit echo chambers. Like the frequent fights about Space Marine only being male in universe, or the frequently monthly "TRANS RIGHTS" posting , or virtue signalling by libtards who are clearly not sub regulars of give a shit about the 40k lore at all and wants to colonize all hobby/fandom subs like the chaos gods
Well in today's sperg congregation, we have another shitlib hugbox cry fest about some art on twatter where another generic 40k artist made some art about the Imperuim of Man facing off against the Navi from the Avatar movies.
The cardinal sin of the artist in question today is the use of the Navi specifically because they are space Indians (the yank type) , and the casual and INSENSITIVE nature of this fictional picture has ruffled the feathers of grimDork
Killing space natives is unimpressive
"Killing space natives in fiction is A POLITICAL STATEMENT"
"Ugh I hate the low brow members of this truly scholarly and cultured hobby of ours, ggnnhhhhh"
"YIKESERINOS, I keep getting a bad VIBE from fans who immitate the bad-guys too much, they give off a hecking NAZI VIBE!"
"It's getting disturbing for me how many of the fanbase is taking the purge the Xenos seriously"
PROJECTION!!
"Chuds masterbate to Space Marines killing furries, and this makes me mad!"
THIS ART IS CRINGE BECAUSE IT PROMOTES COLONIALISM AGAINST THE UNDERDOG
Man this art REALLY pissed of the soys
"Some people are a little too excited to be space xenophobes."

If you read the prequals it turns out there were a lot of non-terrible human civilizations the Imperium exterminated. The Imperium is humanity's greatest enemy. It is a cage in a slaughterhouse, where victims are fatted to be consumed by the dark gods.

I prefered wh40k when your imperial guard unit could be entirely aliens and the commissar just shoots anyone who questions it. When every Imperial world was almost completely independent because warp travel is incredibly unreliable. When no one though the inquisition was the good guys and people just knew them as “those creepy dudes you shoot in the face for getting in your way”. When it was accepted the Imperium was in a constant state of civil war over any question you can imagine.

Warhammer's setting exists to justify the wargame, you can't have two factions with no reason to fight each other because players for each faction may want to play against one another.
