A progressive message next to a picture of a warmongering super-soldier of a cartoonishly un-progressive faction.
Im sensing some disconnect here...
Nothing in the WH40k universe I've seen have implied citizens can't be trans. Just not xenos.
The only disconnect here is you taking a fictional warmongering super soldier of a cartoonishly un progressive faction seriously
Have you seen the Warhammer 40k community lately?
The community doesn't dictate the lore. Plus the loud antiprogressive crybabies are just a loud online minority. A ton of 40k fans I know are queer and some even furries.
Ah, Space Wolf fans
The Nazi edge lords want to brand 40k as their own and the creators told them to go fuck off and if they show up, call them the fuck out.

Apparently not, to their credit. If I knew anything about what Warhammer is actually like, I would be so ashamed.
The really big community that has good parts and bad parts? That community?
There is nothing in 40k lore that implies that the Imperium of Man is anti-queer. There are even some canon characters who are queer. It is just part of their personality and not the main defining trait of their character. Queer characters being made just for the sake of being queer is boring and makes shallow character lore. But if you have a heroine who just happens to love another woman, but that part isn't the essential part of the story, then you have a decent character.
I think sexuality should be decided on a dice, for every character.
There's plenty in imperium lore that they are anti-queer. They're not just against xenos, but also mutants and heretics, the latter two having a rather loose definition and largely dependent on who's in charge and where.
I expect a lot more flexibility in this regard from the Eldar and the T'au than the Astartes and especially not the overly zealous Soriotes.
The astartes especially won't care though, they have all sexuality removed. None of them would give a shit
Not all queer identities have something to do with sexuality. E.g. being trans.
You sound a bit like a crybaby bitch.
