And now, for this old chestnut.

re: capitalism compared to warhammer 40k 

@LexYeen what movies/etc are these all supposed to be referencing?

re: capitalism compared to warhammer 40k 

@Felthry None, they're all referencing the story behind the setting of Warhammer 40,000, specifically the story behind the human factions.

It's a very, very bleak setting. Like, one of the official taglines is "In the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war."

@LexYeen huh. most of what we've heard about warhammer had us thinking it was a kind of discworld-like setting, lots of weird stuff and humor

re: capitalism compared to warhammer 40k 

@Felthry Oh yeah there's a lot of moments in it that are *made* funny due to the absurdity of the setting, especially if Orks are involved, and there's always the chance for hilarity in tabletop gaming due to the randomization of dice rolls.

But like, the default setting describes humanity as basically living under theocratic authoritarian fascism.

@Felthry @LexYeen you mount be thinking of Warhammer proper target than WH40K?
