I could never figure out how this kind of satire supposed to work.
Judging by the letter, it doesn't. But then people think I'm ridiculous for suggesting that maybe dressing up kids as storm troopers or Darth Vader isn't the greatest idea. So what do I know?
Yeah it's like read the fucking subtext, guys. I get that it's fiction but you're dressing up as very literal space Nazis. What kind of person would want to dress up as a stormtrooper when you could be a Jedi, or even a Clone Trooper?
Slaanesh, the God of Rape and Cocaine, has evil Space Marines who murder people using the power of Heavy Metal. They literally have guitar flamethrower guns. Back in the 80s the game was so obviously over the top and silly that it was hard to take seriously. The Space Orks talk, dress, and act like British football hooligans. They've gotten more serious about the Grim Dark since then and it's made it harder to read as satire.

What idiot dresses their kids up as stormtroopers anyway? They were the faceless henchmen who just got owned every time they were on screen lol
