    And on the opposite side we have “I’d rather be human trafficed into a nazi concentration camp than spend even 5 minutes in the universe of Warhammer 40K.”

      I’m sorry, like, I would choose 5 minutes in Warhammer 40K versus the Nazi death camps.

      My overweight native ass would be tortured to death over the period of several months, whereas five minutes in Warhammer 40k, like maybe I catch a stray bullet, maybe I get gang raped by orcs, but more than likely I survive, and I’m relatively unharmed.

        Based on what I know, 99% of humans live in hive worlds and will never see conflict. The stories, the wars? Galaxy wide - like just looking at a map of the galaxy and how long space travel takes? Not just the warp traitors, but orks and Nids with their “proper” propulsion? The worst most humans will face is Darktide-style incursions of rot under a hive, and even then the upper levels may not even be aware of such.

        The far and wide galaxy of Warhammer may certainly not be good, as theres settings like Star Trek where no matter where you go youre rocking a good time - but idk the worst most humans have to deal with is god-aweful mismanagement and ineffective government of the hive, maybe a Mechanicus comes to town and calls people “pre-servitors” for awhile and then fucks off back to Mars. The cities are beautiful when they’re not on fire. Chances of being born to a mundane non-hellscape and living and dying with nothing happening are pretty good tbh
