subtle what ? can you give an example ? <| sep |> Yeah , been thinking about trying this too . Do you know if a prescription from philippines would work in other countries ? or do i have to get one from India ? <| sep |> Grandchildren ? Ma ' am , I believe it ' s time to get off the computer . <| sep |> Yes . Absolutely yes . <| sep |> Yeah what was that <| sep |> When humanity is this big , you have no chance to be excellent a hands off approach would just leave world ' s open to invasion . Retooling production lines will lead to revolts , retraining the Imperial guard would take too long , you don ' t HAVE the necessary tech to mass produce things like ships . Humanity cannot afford to be nice , because being nice leads to laziness , sedition , and chaos worship . It leads to corruption the regular , non chaos kind on multiplanetary scale . The bulwark of humanity is fractured and spread out , you can ' t just up the recruitment of Imperial guardsmen , and space Marines are limited in their own recruitment due to a lack of technology and their own evolved dogma . And then you have the warp , you can ' t do anything against a warp storm , you are going to lose ships , or whole fleets , entire planetary systems that are vital are going to be cut off for centuries or more . Everything you need to keep this together is constantly falling apart and is barely kept together already , and even one person with perfect knowledge can ' t be everywhere at once . Furthermore , every single institutions would hate you for their own reason . Techpriests would want to hold off implementation of new technology until they can study it for at least two or three decades . The ecclesiarchy , would take offense to any deviation from the Imperial Creed , and they basically control the imperium another example of a brutal , but at this point necessary institution . Inquisitors . Well , most of them won ' t need a reason . So on and so forth . The 40 k universe is fucked , and that ' s how it ' s supposed to be .
