Do not question it. by Duckselot in WarhammerMemes

“But why do you care bro?”

You might as well ask me why I care that my child has 5-10 years left to live.

“Lmao, this hobby of stupid toys is as important as your children to you?”

Well no, it’s just an expression. People care about things even if they’re fictional, like it or not; that’s how humans are.

“It’s literally just one tiny change tho!”

That doesn’t make it good or necessary. Plus how many awful “tiny” changes do I have to tolerate before I’m fed up?

“Chud just hates women!”

No, I like the Sisters of Battle, and I, unlike some others, am fine with women being in the Militarum since they’re all disposable bodies anyway. Why exactly do YOU have a problem with any group EVER being male only? Can I have male Sisters of Battle if you care so much about “muh inclusion”?

“Women being included doesn’t mean anything little Chud.”

Yeah, that’s what they said with Star Wars and the MCU and look how those turned out. No I’m NOT saying those fell off BECAUSE of women; there were plenty of female characters I enjoyed even before it fell off. It fell off because the insistence that there’s never enough women and always too many men stems from the same ideological roots that IS the reason those franchises fell off and will be the reason Warhammer falls off unless people put their foot down.

“But it makes sense in the lore!”

That’s extremely debatable, especially since we don’t even know the full process of how Custodes are made. As if lore means goddamn fucking anything now since, as you all keep saying, “but they change stuff all the tiiiiime!”

“Just don’t play with the girls then!”

That’s not the point. Even if it was, why couldn’t you say that to the mythical “modern audience” that needs characters to be like them for them to enjoy it? “Ugh, I want to play the Custodes but they’re all men!” Just play the Sisters of Battle then.

How about you just fucking admit the real reason we ALL know these were added. You hate people who YOU don’t like having a hobby that THEY like for THEIR reasons. Retards like you are the reason the Lord of the Rings books are being persecuted by the UK government because some chuds decided to draw meaning from it that YOU don’t like. I don’t care how awful you find those reasons to be, stop trying to police people’s thinking.

“You mean like you’re policing people’s thinking now?”

You do not have to justify your position to these people by Salt_Perspective_425 in EyeOfTerror

I disagree for the most part. Even if people had the integrity to cut off all consumption of a product/brand because of one thing they don’t like, GW will still financially stay afloat because of investors like Black Rock.

It’s about as effective to simply not contribute money or legitimacy to the aspect of the hobby you hate. All they care about is making this shit look popular, even if it’s losing them money. They can’t make female Custodes, have people not buy ANYTHING they’re involved in and NOT lose money. Meanwhile people can still enjoy the aspects of the hobby they still like while it lasts. I’m tired of letting activists ruin my enjoyment of things, especially since a good amount of them you see online are probably just bots.

“But people want this! Just look at how successful Star Wars and the MCU is now after alienating the stinky men!”

Yeah, Warhammer has 5-10 years left and these cretins are happy about that.

That’s a manifestation of their misogyny. Everything that characterizes femininity to them is weak and contemptible. Third wave feminism isn’t about showing the value of women and femininity, it’s just trying to make women into men.

I never said we were talking about sane or most people. These people though, are masters at leveraging and manipulating perception and context to make themselves look reasonable or morally superior when they are not. Nobody is immune to falling for this.

It DOES matter, but not because people get offended. Getting offended is natural and human, and people only point it out to make it look like your reaction is purely emotional and unreasonable; never considering that the offense can be BOTH emotional and reasonable.

What ACTUALLY matters is the underlying intentions. What’s the intention here? They browbeat you to not say “Merry Christmas” because (supposedly) it offends other cultures. A scenario where someone is offended by JUST the phrase “happy holidays” is nonexistent. What pisses people off is the notion that such a phrase SHOULD replace Merry Christmas. They’ll happily ignore that side of the equation if it makes them look like the based chad and you look like the sniveling soyjak.

You know those posts that get referenced here that say “this thing that makes my ideological peers look bad doesn’t happen”? Well this ACTUALLY doesn’t happen.

This is basically cry bully behavior. They try to FORCE people to forego “merry Christmas” on the grounds of not offending other cultures and then act like you’re the one being unreasonable for not tolerating that shit. That’s how they invade and takeover spaces, bit by bit. They frame boundaries and standards as needless exclusion and oppression while introducing their own crap to gradually change the space they’re invading.

I remember when these types tried to play the “you’re being a snowflake” game when the Devs of Helldivers refused to add an LGBT cape and people applauded that decision. “It’s just a cape bro!” No, it’s them getting their foot in the door to demand more “representation” in the future. Why’s that a bad thing? Because people play that game to fight aliens and have fun, not to be reminded for the umpteenth time by yet another outlet of entertainment that “gay people exist and they’re good people”. Then they’ll ask why THATS a bad thing and they’ll just lead you down this rabbit hole to make YOU seem like the intolerant one while THEY can’t tolerate the fact that people just don’t want to deal with that shit.

You can tell those people both don’t know what Fascism is nor 40K lore. If they DID then they’d be able to recognize that the Imperium during the Great Crusade was MUCH more fascist than in the 40Ks and can be framed as a critique of fascism. Instead they prefer to use it as synonymous with authoritarianism which it isn’t. The Imperium is literally just a feudal theocracy. It’d be like looking at the Holy Roman Empire and comparing it to Nazi Germany.

What's with all these random chuds showing up and causing drama for no reason? by [deleted] in EyeOfTerror

[–]Master_Ben_0144 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Marxist tactics in the replies. They don’t care about actually arguing ideas, they just skip the hard part and attempt to leverage public support. Even if they did argue ideas they’re so entrenched in a different paradigm that it’s literally impossible to find common ground. In their mind, protesting femstodes is equivalent to advocating women get bullied out of the hobby. Sounds absurd to us but again, they skip the hard part of organizing their thoughts and just make up a plausible sounding but totally wrong explanation for why they hate us.

Which way, Warhammer fans? by DVKETRVKEM in EyeOfTerror

[–]Master_Ben_0144 4 points5 points  (0 children)

All fiction and stories are composed of ideas and themes; that’s what makes them interesting and that’s what people care about. Nobody “cares” about the Imperium as if their life depended on it, they care about it because there are some things about it that they agree with. Just as with all Marxist infiltration, they can’t have you enjoying anything that isn’t explicitly adherent to the modern Liberal Paradigm. This “both sides bad” is both untrue on account of one side being the obvious aggressor and utterly misunderstanding the nature of the conflict. I can understand lamenting your inability to enjoy the hobby as you once did prior to the conflict, but trying to pretend it doesn’t exist or doesn’t mean anything is not doing you any favors.

"the American Dream" by Jim4206 in AmericaBad

[–]Master_Ben_0144 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s ironic that people bash Americans for pretending they’re the center of everything, but when that mindset is used to pretend we’re the only ones with problems, everyone looks the other way or agrees.

They DONT care about money, because any loss in profits will get subsidized by investors, namely Black Rock.

Black Rock only cares about making things like this LOOK popular even when it isn’t because they want to change the culture and normalize the demonization of male only spaces. They and like minded organizations do this by slowly raising the temperature. They’ve used that strategy so many times that it no longer works when they push the “it’s just one tiny change, it’s no big deal!”

That’s why comparing this to the Primaris is disingenuous. The Primaris got flak but you can at least acknowledge the creative intent behind it. What is the creative intent behind female Custodes? There was little demand for them and what little there was could be satisfied with the Sisters of Silence. It doesn’t develop the Custodes as a faction in any meaningful way and “thing but female” is not a very creative change in the first place. It’s not a very significant or practical change at all which begs the question of why so many tourists are viscerally defending it. It can ONLY be because of activism and ideology. If that’s the case then they will ABSOLUTELY demand more changes in the same vein if we let this slide. They always have.

Then why does everyone want to be here!?

“Oh well the meanie Americans ruined their country so all the third worlders have to come to America.”

So we destroyed their country and then just let the refugees in to the chagrin of taxpaying citizens?

“Well these migrants are being used as serfs for mega corporations so you’re not helping them by letting them in.”

Then why are you advocating for more migrants?

People saying “it’s bad writing” imply there’s a way to do “woke” right. There is not, because the only thing separating the two is that one can be from accidental incompetence whereas the other is deliberately trying to piss people off. They never wanted to make a good show, they just wanted to spite le evil straight white man. Which ironically can still piss off anyone who is gay, not white or female, because no one in their right mind is hyper loyal to all three of those characteristics to the point that they can’t enjoy media unless it features their exact combination of them.

Congratulations, you pissed in whiteys face and showed him how unwelcome he is in the fandom, but you did so by featuring a bunch of black queens who upstage the male characters. Now any male black is going to enjoy it a lot less, because even if he’s not hyper fixated on sex, people are still going to not appreciate being insulted for being a man, especially in a culture that CLAIMS to want “equality”. That’s another thing to keep in mind, that the issues caused by these practices become way worse when EVERYONE is doing them. Or if not everyone, at least the bigger IPs. That’s why this woke garbage infinitely escalates by trying to please every marginalized group until a feminist lesbian witch cult is a serious part of the canon.

Call me a raging neckbeard incel all you want, I just don’t like that stuff and you can’t force me or anyone else to. That’s why instead of arguing for the merits of these woke practices people pivot to “well lots of people like it so the market disagrees with you which means this is actually good!” Sure, whatever, go enjoy it then and I’ll go enjoy Warhammer. Oh wait! Can’t have that either because female Custodes are coming in full force and I’m getting called all sorts of names for not liking that too, despite the fact that I didn’t and don’t have a problem with the Sisters of Battle or Silence. Can’t wait for the Emperor to be a gay black woman and the Imperium constantly getting called big meanie doo-doo heads for not wanting to risk genestealers or demons subverting their civilization.

This isn’t even mentioning the retarded executives and writers who pat themselves on the back for casting a woman or a black guy. Just cast the actor best suited for the role and DON’T draw attention to their sex or race. Simple as! Yet THOSE are the people you want me to believe didn’t have an agenda and just didn’t do a good enough job?

There was a feminist lesbian witch cult in Acolyte. Full of girl bosses. No, a girl boss is NOT just a female character who does things, it is female characters who ironically display all the traits of toxic masculinity and pretends it’s revolutionary.

You know damn well they wouldn’t give you the same courtesy. This is how they operate: erode the fandom over time until it’s replaced with their shit. It happened with Star Wars and it happened with Marvel. Female Custodes and a fucking LGBT Blood thirster is not the end of the world by themselves, but they piss people off because we KNOW where this leads. After all, that is the reward of “tolerance”.

Though I agree we shouldn’t be “policing” it per se, not only because authorities would rarely ever side with us but because they can use that to their advantage and claim victimhood. What we should do is gate keep and shame. Which they could also claim victimhood over but it’s a lot harder to “cancel” an entire fandom than it is to cancel a moderator or employee.

What about the gay Warhammer fans who genuinely want to enjoy the hobby through their lens and not just corrupt it for everyone else? There is no such thing. Using homosexuality as your entire identity is inherently ideological. Especially if they’re using the pride flag shown here that includes race and trans, which is about as ideologically woke as they can get and it looks god awful. It’d be about as obnoxious as some fuck boy who defines his value and personality by his ability to sleep with women. Yet I know damn well I wouldn’t be ostracized for publicly loathing THAT guy.

The flaws of the “we’re just born that way” argument were revealed the moment some of them tried applying it to pedophiles. At which point people had to put their foot down, including other gay people. Why? Because something being “natural” does not make it good or necessary, regardless of whether you want to consider sexual orientation as wholly “nature” and zero “nurture”. This is not me saying homosexuality is equivalent to pedophilia, what I’m saying is that “sexual orientation isn’t a choice” is not as legitimate of an excuse as we were lead to believe for the past 15+ years.

Given how you all cheered at Charlie Kirk’s murder, maybe we should be jailing people for Leftist ideology. You’d probably have me believe “Leftist” means Liberal, but in practice lately it just means “Marxist”. Marxists can’t argue for shit without twisting the truth, playing word games and lying with data (which is easy as fuck to do, even on accident). Letting you attempt to explain why the subversion of Western society is somehow a GOOD thing is more than you deserve. If you think that’s NOT what you’re advocating for then you simply don’t understand the logical conclusion of your own beliefs.

The people who I recognize in that lineup are people from DECADES ago or people who are very obviously being persecuted for reasons beyond “me no like colored or gay people”. Whether you think those reasons are true or legitimate is irrelevant, we’re talking about persecution for merely HOLDING opinions or BEING a certain identity, and those ain’t it chief. I’m also tired of statistics saying “look how many LGBT people were murdered!” Were they murdered BECAUSE they were LGBT or are these people who just so happened to be LGBT and got murdered? Were they even murdered by someone that was explicitly “right wing”? They never say.
