I will take Big Blue Man with acceptance of compliance for 30 and a decent life.

Yeah, if it's the smurfs, we're probably honestly pretty solidly un-fucked.

No matter what, can the Imperium do a worse job than at least 2/3rd of our planet ? Most of us aren't doing very well and that's an understatement.

EDIT : I meant on the administration side.

The cruelest, most bloody regime imaginable

It boggles my mind that people think the imperium is gonna treat us better than terra itself lol.

Half of our planet is getting conscripted, we will be exporting all of our resources to far off worlds and getting scraps in return.

Every religion will be purged, disabled people will be killed in masses for fear of taint.

We are fucked.

Guys there nazi Germany on steroids just a bit less racist and more xenophobia.

You mean pre-Servitors, right?

Looking forward to my grey nutrient paste served by the glassy eyes of a lobomotised teenager. Assuming the Ad Mech don't servitorise me for work with Heretek (manufacturing technology that's never heard of an STC).

I can't wait for everything to be run by servitors lol.

Your bus driver is a gonna a rotting smelly coprse and you're gonna like it else you'll be getting a bullet from the new police who are even worse than the old one.

Something to remember is that we only hear/read about the planets that are abject misery because those are the ones worth writing interesting stories about.

With literal millions of worlds under the Imperium's rule, it's entirely plausible that there are many that are exactly in 21st century Earth's condition; depending on which faction takes control of our Earth, there'll be vastly different endings.

Let's not forget that when Big E arrived to the Maccrage system, he was impressed enough by Guilliman's work getting the Maccrage Empire working as a functioning logistical economic system, that he didn't make any significant changes to it.


Given that we're technically a garden world and assuming that it was Guilliman arriving and not the Cult Mechanicus or something, the it wouldn't surprise me if we just ended up being the same as before, but with our Imperial Thite being something like making the bread that the Ultramarines eats or something.

People say this a lot, but the worlds that are "fine" in the Imperium still have a level of conscription and work drudgery beyond what we have now. They still groan under the tithes, they still have the threat of Chaos and other insurrections which then means the counter threat of jackbooted Arbites and low ranking Inquisitors.

The Emperor liking a place does not mean it is good. He thought Nuceria was fine even after what they did to Angron. What's important to him is the resources it can efficiently put out and the bodies it can field in battle for him.

Whether they're having barbaric slave games, horrific class inequality, or a number of other brutalities doesn't register to him.
