Yeah, I know. Some pig lives matter themed ultramarines would be a funny bit of satire to me. You’ve already got the blue and the skulls and the fascist oppression. However, warhammer fans would see it as unironically supporting fascist super cops. So I’d never paint it because warhammer is the wrong fandom to do it in. Same with trans masc space marines. Getting juiced up on super testosterone is something you can do a lot of gender themes with, but warhammer is too fascist to do it right.
“these fascists are just like cops” by someone who hates both versus “these fascists are just like cops” by someone who loves both. Don’t want to be mistaken for these second, but wh hasn’t been satire since like the first edition.

I think I’ve seen blue lives matter themed space marines before, so you’re unfortunately late to that party. Satire is truly dead
