they are all also cool

looks at nurgle

Uhhhhhh I'm not so sure about that one.

But hey, if you want papa nurgle's blessing, go for it.

While the runners these days may not have any kind of satire in mind, it's pretty obvious a large portion of the Imperium is based on a mixture of 1940s German and (80s-now) modern American ideals, as well as capitalism in general. The Eldar are arrogant isolationists and the dark Eldar are gluttonous.

Most of 40k can have parallels drawn to modern society and the dials are all set to overload.

While they may not have a direct point, I do think it still can have a message.

"don't be like this"

Too bad we are failing...

Originally it was a parody of Thatcher's England.

Given the time it was created, that's not surprising.

Also a good time to remind everyone that thatcher's grave is a gender neutral bathroom.
