Here's the funny thing, I like the lore of 40K, not a huge fan of Warhammer Fantasy, but to each their own, I also don't like the game "The Forest" and it's sequel, not because it's a bad game, but because the idea of requiring the making of effigies out of human remains to scare off the locals repulses me. That being said, I have never, and will never advocate for that mechanic or "The Forest" to be removed, it's part of that game, and people like it, I just know that game isn't for me and I let people who enjoy the game, enjoy the game. Why is it that these kinds of folk demand something cater to their ideals and must remove things that trouble them, are they that weak in their on convictions that they cannot simply step away from something they dislike and choose not to engage?

The first rule of the hobby is not to bring politics into the game. I've known that for the past 42 years, and it's worked out well for me and all the guys I've played wargames and RPGs with (And we're ALL a mix bag of Conservatives and Liberals). I don't understand wth these new breed of gamers think they're doing bringing in their political views into a game like 40k (A game where the only political view is that of destroying everything that is either heretical, alien, or mutated). Wargaming has no room for that nonsense. I don't care about their views. That's their personal business. But because they've overstepped the boundaries and are now trying to take OUR fun away, that's where I'm drawing the line, too. Woke gamers need to go kick rocks, and these journalists that keep fanning the flame for the wrong cause need to remember what neutrality is when it comes to writing articles.

Nowadays, you can't even comment on a converted mini because I'm not allowed to refer to a work being a conversion because I'm not Trans. Screw that noise.

It's thanks exclusively to yourself that I "heard the good news" about the game itself being a good old time and the studio head the fervent ideologs to GTFO.

Only problem is Archcast is dead wrong about 40k being reactionary, quite the opposite The Empire is is straightforward left anarchist or Trotskyist allegory for USSR. Rise of the emperor and creation of the empire is basically soviet revolution in Russia. Lenin is the Emperor, Horus heresy is counterrevolution by mensheviks, left SR and anarchists that spit from bolsheviks and joint forces of capitalism and Tsar that themselves are represented as forces of chaos. Placement of Emperor in to golden throne is allegory for entombment of Lenin in the red square mausoleum. Emperor's belief in science that got corrupted in to a cult after his entombment is allegory for Marxist philosophical Materialism and how it got "corrupted" in USSR in to party dogma. Imperial bureaucracy and high lords of Terra is clear allegory for People's Commissars that run USSR after Lenin death, as well as Bakunin's concept of red bureaucracy or Trockyist concept of degenerated worker state. Parallels are so stark I'm 100% certain that back in the 90s writers of 40K lore were bunch of Trotskyist or socialist with quite in depth knowledge of soviet history, and they used that knowledge as rather straightforward inspiration in writing 40k lore.

I don't know if Archcast is right or wrong, but I never heard Rick Priestley talking about the USSR or Lenin as the inspiration for the Empire of Man. I think I heard Dune or Judge Dredd for sure. I think it's probably a mixture of dozens of ideas that went into the lore. If you have sources for your argument, I truly like to see them. Being "reactionary" can also be interpretated differently from different point of views. There are probably many left wingers that aren't big fans of the woke/gender thing and therefor reactionary. So here I would say Archcast isn't 100% right with his assessment of the fans of WH40k.

Im going to defend Eons of Battle from the Pleasant Kenobi video. EoB for the most part, didn't really latch onto anything political other than not wanting super political things in the hobby. When EoB did speak he was mostly neutral rather than a die-hard activist like Pleasant Kenobi.

Eh, PleasantKenobi has some pretty weird takes and this is one of them - but in MTG and Warhammer content it is always taking a lot of scraping of the hyperbole barrel to fit an argument that is semi-truth and semi-grandeous for making his argument. It's a content farm for what is generally considered to be niche hobbies. I'm sure he will continue to do well, even if I sometimes do and sometimes don't really agree with the content he produces; however, the "Hurrdurr Chuds r00l cuz le-gay cant handle masculine stuff" is just so outstandingly weird from a concept that it does merit some delving into the content - I just don't think PK is the one to touch either side of that conversation with the level of maturity it requires.

Well, the Nipple-gate thing was clearly about maintaining the 5th ed aesthetic of putting nipples, pecs, belly buttons and abs on the artificer armor of the Blood Angels. The only current 10th ed model that still has nipples is Mephiston. This isn't a fetish thing. The concern was, I believe, that GW was leaning towards a more PG rating in their models and designs rather than sticking with the old aesthetic of gold armor with nipples on them. I think the very first model to have this in 40K was a 2nd Blood Angels captain, then Tycho, then Dante, and then in 5th the Sanguinary Guard. Now, a lot of the great, baroque detailing that proved a hallmark of the Blood Angels has gone away and the models in the Primaris range are debatably bland. These guys like the quirkiness of the old 40K aesthetic, and like any good nerd, dislike drastic change. I don't know what that channel's general identity politic is, and I don't care, but the guy who tweeted as PleasantKenobi is a fantastic hobbyist and puts out some wonderful painting and hobby videos. I don't watch him for his take on being trans or gay or whatever, I watch him to see how his Black Templars are coming along and his passion and zeal for the hobby is super entertaining. He's a nerd. That's what nerds do. All of the videos I've seen from that channel are apolitical and solely hobby-based. The ones that you are sharing never popped up in my feed, and I certainly have no interest in watching a podcast complaining about people having different opinions about things in their personal life. To be clear, 40K should be about 40K, and conversations at the local game store should orbit around 40K and not political ideologies. How boring and exhausting to show up with your army and then listen to someone preach to you about anything but the "God-Emperor" or the zealotry of their unhinged Space Marine chapter. Regular guys shooting bullshit about everyday things definitely has its place, as venting is a perfectly acceptable social thing, but there are limits to what most gamers want to hear, regardless of how center-right or center-left they are. Roll your fcking dice and move your plastic dude-menz for fck's sake and shut up! Are there people who are 40K hobbyists and players that swing to the left? Sure, but there are also some who swing too far to the right. Either extreme is insanely nauseating and ruin the escapism of the 40K universe by inserting their unbidden takes on things. I certainly don't want to play 40K with openly racist players, and have had to deal with that at the game stores I've worked at over the years, but I also don't want to be hit on, purity tested, evangelized to as a leftist attempts to convert me to the woke left, or deal with debates on leftists policy during a tournament either. Both are trash from a rotten coin.

I agree with with your argument. It is the extremists that hurt our hobby the most - no matter if it is left, right, conservative, woke or whatever. Neither group has a positive affect on this or any other hobby they pick as a battleground for their culture war.

I've seen EonsOfBattle's videos before and all of them I've seen focus entirely on modelling and have no political content. I've never seen anything woke that I can remember. However, I'm not a subscriber so maybe YT is only serving me up the modelling content? I could'nt say.

Not a Jon but ill take a stab at your question... yes, as a young and ignorant teen, i was slightly more left on green policy ideas. Not being a retard, i matured out of that shit as my level of ignorance decreased. Theres no excuse beyond retardation for adults the age of pk or eob.
