Been hearing a lot of rumblings from normal people in the warhammer community they are tired of fascists worshipping the imperium of man in their community.
is it like a human supremacist group in the lore or something like the empire in Star Wars?

I think you're looking at it on a grand scale; instead look at it as personal, moral failings. Khorne is definitely a macro scale evil, with wars and such, but Dark Eldar aren't conducting torture for military purposes, to them torture is just a hobby like binge gaming or binge watching netflix. Plus what hordes of enemies? Orks don't care, the Eldar are already on the warpath against them and the imperium treats people as toilet paper. Tyranids probably can't be tortured and if you did the other tyranids don't care, and genestealers are more concerned with infiltrating societies for the sake of the Tyranid and probably accepted that this was a possibility ages ago (also I'm not sure if they care if their members are taken for torture purposes).
Theoretically, the Dark Eldar torture to save themselves from having their souls eternally tortured by Slaanesh, but that motive is kind of obfuscated by the fact they enjoy it so much. I'd like to see the Dark Eldar not enjoy it, but also not hate it, like it's a 9-5 job for them, as I mentioned elsewhere here. It could be a parody of capitalism and work culture as well.
