The meme about them being communists is just wrong for a dozen reasons, but more importantly there just isn't really anything there to support the read besides the western brainworm of reading a semi-collectivist phrase like 'the greater good' and their heavy asian coding combining into 'oh these are evil commies' by people with more red scare in their brain than actual political analysis.

The fact that 40k is often a genuine attempt at lambasting rightwing militarism and values and shit, and then the tabletop equivalent of g*mers just eat the slop uncritically and say 'commie bad'. Lmao

Tbf 40k also does eat the slop uncritically and say commie bad. While some of its modern writers still make critiques, a lot of others just make unironic imperium apologia. Like there was a short story posted back during Psychic Awakening which was outright copaganda about how telling the immigrants to go away would have saved a planet from tyranids. Plus the setting is fundamentally anti-revolutionary in several ways.

But also yeah, G*mers are incredibly stupid about this shit and miss the intent of the older lore which is why modern lore is such a hellscape.
