As someone who is in the Warhammer community, I’ve noticed this there too. With the new introduction of the new Illuminate Enemies, I feel like the game is slowly trying to push the idea that, no, the Squi’th are not sympathetic or at least not justified in their anger. Even if they were unrighteously slaughtered and had their worlds ripped apart for trying to ally with Super Earth. With all the body horror and horrific actions they take, it feels like more and mroe they are unironically pushing the idea that all of the squi’th are now pure evil. Which kinda defeats the whole point of their genocide being evil and horrific. As someone else said in a comment, the game I feel doesn’t focus enough on what we have done to the other factions, and instead focuses on what we do to our own citizens, and even then we only really HEAR about it, not actually see it. It feels less like they actually care about the idea of this being a satrie, and just want cool enemies to fight. Which is fine, but it also makes it extremely difficult to take the satire as a satire when it actively shows the civilians of our side being slaughtered and mutated into horrorific monsters, which makes it hard for many to see the Illuminate as anything but monsters.

So I saw something today, and because I’m already have a day that I ruined by doomscrolling, why not add onto it.

Why do some people in this community constantly say “oh, everyone’s gonna hate me for this” or “oh, I know this is a controversial opinion but…”

And then give the most nothing-burger, bland, and acceptable take ever.

And not even in like an ironic way. I genuinely have seen people go out of their way to act like theyre oppressed and that people hate them for having a certain take. AND THE ENTIRE COMMENT SECTION OF THE POST IS PEOPLE AGREEING WITH THEM.

Especially with things like Ashley. I’m sorry, but when so many posts are about how good ashley is, and they get thousands of likes, and hundreds of postive comments, you can’t just PRETEND like everyone in the community hates you, and like you’re part of an silenced minority.

Just say what you wanna say, and stop pretending to be some kind of victim. Sorry if this came off as really pretentious, but its one of those things that just pisses me off.
