    This video ended up with more hot takes than I originally planned for.
    To clarify some things that I feel might stir some debate :
    The Necron's aren't weak because they have bad weapons or low numbers, it's their extreme infighting that keeps them mostly out of the setting
    The Imperium is a pretty Grim place to be, but as shown in novels such as the Eisenhorn Trilogy as well as the infinite and the Divine, there are numerous worlds full of culture and life. Only some Imperial worlds (generally hive worlds) are horrible oppressive places to be.
    The point about there being "goods" guys is based on them being compared to the bad guys, a tyrannical oppressive regime is utopia compared to HELL

    The group of fleeing Orks getting caught by blood angels terminators is funny, but still makes sense. Orks see red as faster but the WAAAGH can't make the space marines run at a higher speed, so how did it happen? The WAAAGH slowed down the Orks until they were slower than the terminators. Space marines weren't running any faster due to the WAAAGH, but they were now the faster of the two groups there, since red is da fastest color.

      And I think that THIS is what happens with Yarrick, though the degree to which it does is up for debate. Yarrick gained a reputation among orks by his own merits as a soldier, then the WAAAGH causes itself to falter in his presence due to said reputation being ingrained into ork consciousness. Henceforth, a self-fulfilling prophecy is created.

      I would like to add that, for the most part, red sub-factions tend to be faster - blood angels have lucifer pattern engines (which were alot stronger in 7th) and their jump packs, Saim Han Eldar focus on speed, Even White Scars incorporate alot of red into their color scheme. it's not universal, but it is present to a significant degree.

    There's also the myth that Khorne "saved" Khaine from Slaanesh. That's not the case and hasn't been since 8th edition, where it was stated in an excerpt of the Craftworlds Codex that Khaine fought Slaanesh to exhaustion, rendering her too weak to consume the war god as she had the other eldar gods. Instead, she rent him into thousands of shards that he wouldn't challenge her again, each shard falling to rest in a craftworlds infinity circuit.
    This is great because it doesn't take power away from Khaine and just hand it to Khorne, it shows the war God being the badass he's supposed to be, even against a seemingly insurmountable foe.

His augments aren't that helpful either, they're mostly aimed towards keeping up the myth about him in the Greenskin's minds. That doesn't help at all if the Orks he has to face never heard of him before, though.
      If he's able to use his wit in order to dispatch the Orks one by one over time with traps or ambushed, then perhaps he could kill a group of Orks indeed. But locked up in a cage with them, two Orks would be more than enough to kill Yarrik.

      @@cibo889 Well, the fight between Ugulhard and Yarrik is the exact reason why I'm saying this. Ugulhard beat the shit out of Yarrik in just a few seconds, which is no surprise since an old human is no match for an Ork warboss.
      It was actually Ugulhard who ripped Yarriks arm off during the fight. After that, he thought Yarrik to be dead and didn't bother about him anymore, but Yarrik suppressed his pain, got up again and decapitated Ugulhard in front of his Orks. That's the actual reason why the Orks believe Yarrik to be immortal, because it seemed to them like he rose from the dead and took revenge on their warboss at that moment.
      Yarrik cut off Ugulhard's claw after he was dead already and attached it to the stump Ugulhard left him with in order to remind the Orks of what happened that day.
      He knew exactly what he was doing, since he was one of the Astra Militarums leading experts on Greenskins back then, that's probably why he was allowed to keep that claw despite using xenos tech being a capital crime.
      That whole scene showed that Yarrik is not really a good fighter anymore (if he has ever been one at all, we don't know much about that), but an outstanding strategist blessed with willpower beyond peer.

      India was ruled by monarchs and THEN my rulers appointed by the British (a constitutional monarchy with limited democracy at the time) Many nations have practiced forced sterilization (including the US, which was actually the first nation to attempt it on a large scale between the 1890s to 1920s, though it was STILL practiced until the 70s.
      As for the caste system, India codifies it and there's certain an issue of "elites" over the lower classes basically everywhere, but if you think countries without communism are immune to it, you NEED more education, fella.

I'd bet there are places and entire worlds where despite the official line xenos are tolerated or even places where there are formal alliances. But all it takes is one overzealous Inquistor to show up and order an exterminatus or one farseer to order a planet wiped because of a vision that maybe it would save one craftworld and suddenly everyone is back to square one.

For a real-world example, its like the craft secrets of masons or blacksmiths in the middle ages (which some people actually did consider a form of magic) combined with rather absolute religious indoctrination. The knowledge exits that could make the Imperium a paradise secure from all hostile foes. But that knowledge is either locked away in thousands of hidden or forgotten vaults or is dispersed in the heads (or whatever body cavity the mem-coils are crammed in to) of a million tech priests that are frequently in violent doctrinal dispute with around 60% of the other tech priests and thus sharing of that knowledge to build something grand doesn't happen...

      Although the Space Marines have a reputation for being asexual, the reality is that their biological augmentations only inhibit, but do not eliminate, their sexual appetites.

Well you aren't implying that all Space Marines that are ever recruited just coincidentally happen to look like their Primarch, are you? Particularly with the Alpha Legion, where Space Marines resemble their Primarch so closely that everyone in the legion can act as a body double for Alpharius.
      Now keep in mind that Space Marines are typically recruited right when puberty starts, which is when an individual's body most drastically begins to alter. The process of becoming a Space Marines must modify their genetics if they all start to look like their Primarch after they're done. Because definitely none of the organs are specifically designed to make that happen.

Its something you see really clearly with The Guard, you read a Ciaphas Cain novel it gives you a good idea of how The Guard would function (and how pleasant a lot of Imperial world's can be), briefing, sensible tactics, competent, experienced officers, but much of the rest just shows the Guard walking slowly into enemy fire and being massacred on mass 'cause Grimdark, The Fall of Cadia's literally meme set piece followed by meme set peice (and bares zero resemblance to the worldwide campaign, Imp. Navy shot Abbadons fleet out of space) and the rule sets haven't let you create seriously customised IG armies since 4th edition which really enforces the meme image, for the most varied fighting force (see any Sabbat World book) in history, an awful lot of em look like Cadians now.

    I think there is another myth, that being the lasgun is a literal flashlight. I don't think so. Lasgun can blow off limbs, giant holes in concrete, extremely fast firing rate, etc. A lasgun can kill all but the most powerful enemies. Even if a lasgun cannot kill a chaos daemon in one shot, well the super fast fire rate will get the job done. In my opinion a single guardsmen can kill about 3-5 normal daemon before he is overrun. A well place lasgun shot can go through a space marine armour like on the joints, etc. But that is unlikely, don't worry a tank can probably kill a few chaos space marine. Not to mention the all powerful hellgun or hotshot lasgun.

      Secondly, Ethereals are a very stabilizing presence for the Tau. While it is true that Tau seem to expel some sort of pheromone, Ethereals of which tend to have a calming presence, it's never actually stated there is mind control. Additionally, Tau have learned to rely almost entirely on Ethereals, so their presence means suddenly everything is under control. It's like soldiers who have lost their commander and are panicking, now suddenly see a 3 star general who gives a rallying speech that tells them their sacrifice is not in vane.
      Simply put, It's not mind control, but rather an extreme moral-boost to have the very leaders of their society present. Again, the only time mind control is suggested is in a single book where an imperial is dissecting a Tau Ethereal. He is mad he was commanded to kill one of his "pets", and when he finds a crystal in the Ethereal's head, he comments on how it is similar to the crystal found in a species that can mind control others, and states something like "let the inquisitor make up his mind on what this means. I've done my job here and had to slaughter my pet for this stupid study. He can come to his own conclusion." So the guy is basically pissed the inquisitor made him kill the Ethereal, and leaves it up to the inquisitor to make his own interpretation and come to the conclusion he knows the inquisitor wants to come to.
      All in all, Tau don't use mind control despite the imperials wanting them to. For more lore info on Tau, look up the Pod Caste podcast on spotify. It's a great series where a group of Tau fans scour Tau lore to clear up confusion on them. Great series.

Like the Ethereals are a breed of Tau that have evolved specifically to be their species' pack leaders. If it was purely mind control, it'd be more rigid and if it was purely societal, it wouldn't be as consistently effective. And of course, since they're a sapient race not solely driven by instinct, you get exceptions like the Farsight Enclave that can break away from it. Some also theorize that the Tau are simply evolving out of their reliance on the Ethereals.

After being able to translate however, the Vespid almost immediately decided to join The Greater Good. As a result, the continues that the Ethereals made mind-control helmets to control the Vespid.

      He’s not up and off the throne, he’s kinda Morphed into a warp god in a way. Most of his essence is in the warp and the throne is the only thing keeping him bound to real space. I imagine whenever the throne finally fails there will be a whole new warp rift, like the eye of terror, to signify the emperor ascending to godhood.

    With most of these, there is lore for and against. With a massive, decades fictional universe like warhammer, spanning thousands of stories from who knows how many different authors, there is going to be a lot of significant inconsistencies in its worldbuilding.
    I think the most you can say is none of these are canon anymore. And even that one is debatable.

With information often being spread across the galaxy by astropathic messages unpredictably across the warp, the Inquisition obscuring unsanctioned truths and that's when the immaterium itself doesn't alter history with time warps and the like. In such a setting, how can one possible have really reliable history?

    I mean yeah, but also... Imagine if all Blood Angels actually went super fast as soon as they got too close to a bunch of Orkz. That'd be really freaking funny. Then again, the Blood Ravens might actually get more use out of it, I mean, that speed boost probably is essential when it comes to "borrowing" some kind of divine relic.

    Craftworlders actually have to keep their emotions in check to stay off of Slaanesh's radar while alive. That's what the highly disciplined lifestyle of "the path"™ is all about. Spirit stones are just to keep the soul from entering the warp upon death. And as pointed out in the video, this is very old lore.
