    Humans aren’t “the good guys” in 40K, just like humans aren’t “the good guys” in Starship Trooper.
    Walter White was a piece of shit.
    The cops on the Shield are pieces of shit.
    Tony Soprano was a piece of shit.
    House was a piece of shit.
    Tyler Durden was a piece of shit.
    Jim from the office was a piece of shit.

    Someone being the main character doesn’t make them a good person. Sometimes a story is told from a different perspective, in order to see something new in a darker light.

    That being said, there is definitely an issue with people not quite getting the point, and attracting or encouraging the wrong crowd.

    I remember a few times choosing to stop playing some people, because halfway through I would pay a little more attention to the glimpses of a tattoo, the patches on their battle foam cases, or what they have up in their garage.
