As a 40k fan, my favourite thing about Space Marines used to be how on-the-nose the analogy of today’s shitty war-obsessed fascism was. Apparently it wasn’t obvious enough.
same, I thought the satire was blindingly obvious what with the psycho-indoctrinated child soldiers being used as the fascist thugs for a literal corpse, but I’ve heard too many people just quote the whole “purge the alien” thing completely without irony.
But I repeat myself
Some of us aren’t! But you are correct to assume fascist until proven otherwise when it comes to 40k, especially space marine and imperium fans
