“The only fascist state in the setting” um, what? I don’t think there is a non-fascist state in the Grimdark except for the ancient races which are psychic and/or networked non-hierarchical hiveminds but even then they seem to occasionally create a commander.
I was always under the impression the Tau were communists, not fascists. The real fascists are the Imperium of Man.
At a distance they sound communist, but the rigid caste system and ruling class make it very authoritarian.
Boy do I have some news for you about irl communist countries
Beat me to it. Lol!
You do? Did you find one that communists agree is actually communist?
While it is an interesting discussion to have about if certain places that claimed to be communist/democratic/whatever actually being so or whatnot, I will still stand by my statement that communism can be paired with authoritarianism, and there have at least been some countries that claimed to be communist that were quite authoritarian.
Authoritarian != fascist
Needs some reading up on political theory to understand, which is a dry subject matter. So the social sites have people calling even monarchies fascism, but it ain’t the same.
EDIT: Ugh literally the comment next to yours is like “If it HaS a LeaDeR It’S faScISm”
That’s a fine academic point, it doesn’t matter in practice. It’s like arguing a shit sandwich is better with piss on it.
Anything with a supreme unquestionable leader is indistinguishable from fascism.
Fascism is a type of dictatorship. That means not all dictatorships are fascist.
I believe there’s a Dr. Seuss quote about this, somewhere out there.
Is it Red Fish Blue Fish 1 Fish 2 Fish?
Nah, he had lots to say about fascists

Hang on, is this going to devolve into communist dictatorship apologia by the way of “America Bad” whataboutism?
You should have a more open growth mindset. If you want to live a long life that grows with you consider to snurgle up to the Nurgle gang 🤗
Orcs by default own the means of production, cus they all grow their own money in their mouths.
Well, Ork did have a supreme leader until like 5 psychic ladies blew his head off with their vagina magic. Don’t at me about the sexism, I didn’t write the 40k lore.
If it’s 40K then it’s Orks. None of this Tolkieny Orc stuff!
ty
Orcs are an anarchist commune. New leaders nominate themselves and the collective decides to follow them or not.
“The only Facist state” lol wut
he means Mankind
Orks is the only meritocracy
Why’s that always about vaginas?
Get stinky loser.
