>>41725 >chinlets first started getting mad at GW because they released a statement saying that fascism was bad and the Imperium is supposed to be villainous. <implying that everyone that liked or played as the Imperium is a chinlet and not just someone roleplaying a tabletop game.<implying people only got mad at GW for changes to the ImperiumThey said fascism is bad, but they didn't just say "it was villainous" because that's redundant; EVERY side of WH40K is villainous in some regard, there is not a single faction of actual good guys because every race or faction is some sort of fucked up,.
