tychobi Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I don’t know that those things would be brainwashing so much as a lack of rights. Given the setting though, I think these things are not the same as they would be if it were to happen in the real world. The god emperor is actually a god, even though he may not have been at one point, it’s by his power alone that we can travel the warp. I’ve read a few books, they didn’t mention too much church, so my feeling is that it’s not absolutely mandatory, just like I don’t go to church but I still have my faith. Mind you, Most of the books were about war. Also, when you know who god is and where he is, you probably go to church more. Sisters being small in number probably wouldn’t be the ones informing this. Now inquisitors, those guys are very often portrayed as you describe, but also as giving themselves too much power and I don’t think that’s the fault of the imperium. I just don’t think that’s brainwashing, manipulation probably. Or we have different definitions of brainwashing. We do have different definitions of brainwashing! The difference is mine is more moral Scribe 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/363632-who-do-you-think-best-represents-the-good-in-universe/page/6/#findComment-5517893 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexington Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 If you can’t define what is good that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist in-universe for 40k. No, but if you can’t define it, how can you say anything represents it?

Ultramarine vet Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 (edited) What defines good....is one's point of view. Like, seriously guys. You're banging your heads against the wall with the same repeated question that doesn't need answering. We should be here to discuss our different views to each other, without forcing others into YOUR point of view.

WarriorFish Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 For a lot of morality talk, there seems to be little self awareness with regards to treatment of peers. Fortunately the B&C is clear cut on such things. The rules are good. Rules breaking is evil.
