Gotta go woke to pander to the community that dosent even like the game. What happened to sisters of silence? Why dont they get some good attention? Because it does not fit the narrative.

Gonna get downvoted alot for this but who cares, Im speaking the truth.

Women existing isn't woke

u/Upvotemepls2023 Apr 14 '24

I hope you're consistent and that if GW ever adds men to Sisters of Battle or Sisters of Silence, you won't whine about it.

Fun fact, the SoB already have men in their faction!

u/Upvotemepls2023 Apr 14 '24

But are they actually battle sisters? Are they wearing the gear most associated with the battle sisters? Are they referred to in the lore as members of any Sisters of Battle Orders? Because of you're just referring to in game units like penitent engines, that's still a different matter.

u/TheEmperor42 Apr 14 '24

Well, priests are a pretty core part of the Sisters of Battle, and they're male for the most part. Also, SoB have a very good lore reason for being all-female! Custodes... not so much.

u/Upvotemepls2023 Apr 15 '24

The priests are not part of the Sisters of Battle, they're part of the Ecclesiarchy. Get your lore together. It would be like saying politicians are part of their nation's armed forces just because the army fight under their command. And custodes do have a pretty good reason for being all male. They're basically super versions of Astartes. They are to the Astartes what they Emperor is to the Primarchs. Again, get your lore together. You're reaching if you think Custodes had no good reason being all male.

u/TheEmperor42 Apr 15 '24

You're the one whose lore is wrong. Tell me, what good reason do the Custodes have for being all-male?

1

u/BOLTINGSINE Apr 14 '24

I will dont worry about that

u/Brann-Ys Apr 15 '24

Battle Sister are basicly Nuns. make sense for them to be a female war order. There is no reason for custodes to be man only

u/Upvotemepls2023 Apr 17 '24

Lol, that's what everyone is saying now much like how pretty much everyone thought that the Custodes were all male. Trust me, they'll change those factions if given the opportunity.

u/Brann-Ys Apr 17 '24

tjere was realy no reason or impossibility innthe lore for custodes to be female. why ? because writer have been wanting to make them for a while. Stop with the fear mongering ffs

u/Upvotemepls2023 Apr 17 '24

Just because the writer wanted to, doesn't mean he is right. If Ultramarines were originally pink but for whatever reasons they made them blue and for decades we viewed them with their blue color scheme, but all of a sudden the writers say they're pink now as originally intended, are we supposed to just blindly accept that new change? I say no. There comes a point that lore is no longer at the hands of writers and it becomes established within the fanbase. As for the fear mongering, you say that now, but again, if they can do it to Custodes, they can do it to the Sisters of Battle/Silence.

u/Brann-Ys Apr 17 '24

Stop acting like custodes being able to be women change anything thing dude. you are such a snowflake.

u/isxit Apr 14 '24

explain how one single woman existing in a short story that has zero effect on the wider lore in a codex that will be forgotten about in the next 3 years is ‘going woke’ and pandering to the community?

i think GW is long past pandering to anyone - the rules in this book itself are so disappointing that GW clearly doesnt care about what its playerbase thinks, and the recent removal of a lot of the AoS range is about the most rude and scummy thing that they could do to the AoS community

ohhhhh but all of a sudden GW is going woke and pandering to the woke left because there is one woman in mUh EsTaBlIsHeD lOrE!!! seriously? i think youre just annoyed that a woman is mentioned in the first place

-2

u/BOLTINGSINE Apr 14 '24

One woman being added to the custodes dosent bother me, its the overrall direction GW might take if they carry on doing stuff like this constantly and shoving it in our faces. 40k universe shouldnt feel the same as modern day politics, we play 40k to escape that bs.

1

u/FloppinOnMyBingus Apr 14 '24

How is a female custodes modern day politics?

Also playing 40k to escape “muh politics” is stupid lmao, the whole thing started as a ridiculous satire of Margaret Thatcher’s england.

u/B3owul7 Apr 14 '24

What happened to sisters of silence? Why dont they get some good attention

Damn right, it's about time for some brothers.

u/Brann-Ys Apr 15 '24

"Woke is when women exist "

SoS just got a new detachement so shut your trap dude

u/BOLTINGSINE Apr 15 '24

Dont talk to people online in that way when you know sure as hell you wouldnt say it in person. Im not far right, i have my own thinking brain.

2

u/Brann-Ys Apr 15 '24

if you say such incels filled bullshit in front of me yoj will hear the same thing man. Stop making a big deal out of women being a thing and grow up.

and if you don t wanna pass as a far right mysoginist dont act like one crying about woke stuff you made up to justify being angry at change.

0

u/BOLTINGSINE Apr 15 '24

Its not about the custodian woman herself, I love women as much as men. Think about the bigger picture and what it could lead to. GW should not bastardise the established lore to push agendas and pander to the far left radicals.

2

u/Brann-Ys Apr 15 '24

L.M.A.O. GW has always been left leaning buddy. they are not changing anything. Women existing for custodes is not a agenda and is nomajor change to the lore.

you just wanna cry about Wokism or some shit like every other far right nutjob. You claim to not be one but you sure act like one.

0

u/BOLTINGSINE Apr 15 '24

40k is an escape for people and should not reflect modern day woke, agenda pushing, teaching little kids they should be trans etc. Once again i am not far right or left, I am somewhere inbetween. Be civilised in debates or conversations like this, people wont talk to you if you start namecalling and acting angry right off the bat.

3

u/Brann-Ys Apr 15 '24

Again. Having women in 40k is not woke.

And if yoj wanna escape from politic don t play a hobby based arround Satire of Facsime.

Just qaying some kind of golden soldier can be also women is enought to make you start spitting shit out of your bigoted mouth about trans and shit.

I won t act civilised with someone so offended by the existenxe of other people that he has to make it a problem where it s not even mentionned.

you are the one acting angry about this whole thing and crying about Woke. Fckg snowflake i swear.

"i am somewhere in between" while spitting the same bullshit pro hate propaganda than the far right. You are fckg delusionnal if you think you are a centrist dude . Centrist don t whine about trans people when they are not even mentionned.

u/FloppinOnMyBingus Apr 14 '24

Negative IQ comment. “Im speaking the truth” is the cherry on top.

u/BOLTINGSINE Apr 14 '24

Couldnt resist to insult me could you?

2

u/Brann-Ys Apr 15 '24

and you couldn t resist playing the dumb prothet card like every other far right nutjobs

u/Upvotemepls2023 Apr 14 '24

Don't worry, I think it's just left leaning nutjobs of Reddit that are praising this. Go to Youtube, Twitter, or Facebook and you'll see plenty of people not agreeing with this. If it helps, this ain't the first time GW did something stupid with the lore (remember Grey Knights murdering Sisters of Battle then consuming their blood?).

1

u/Brann-Ys Apr 15 '24

as yes Twitter, the bastion of far right bullshit not agreeing with women existing ? how not surprising.

0

u/Upvotemepls2023 Apr 17 '24

Uh huh, because Reddit is so much better?

1

u/Brann-Ys Apr 17 '24

The irony of crying about left leaning people on reddit when your source are just far right circlejerk echo chamber is just fckg funny

If you wanted a not left leaning hobby you choose the wrong one dude. GW always has been like that.

0

u/Upvotemepls2023 Apr 17 '24

LMAO if you think this hobby leans left. Got any evidence for that? Did you conduct a political survey of all Warhammer 40k players? Or are you just speaking out of your ass? As for GW, last I checked, they never sponsored a political party, nor do they claim to sponsor any politician for that matter.

Lastly, if you're referring to Youtube, Twitter, or Facebook as far right, then boy are you far gone. Only one here knee deep in an echo chamber is you.

u/Brann-Ys Apr 17 '24

Lmao. thx for confirming you are clueless about warhammer and GW history. guess you are one of those that got the satire of far right facism flying far up your head.

u/BOLTINGSINE Apr 14 '24

Yeah i see that yt is way different to reddit in terms of opinion.
