Honestly "Andor on steroids" could elevator pitch well enough to have a chance. Any antifascism in 40K has to be a defeatist cautionary tale though on account of how the whole setting works.
fuck that, Cavill is the villain as a stormtroop- I mean Space Marine, the heroes are explicitly communist Tau and then they defeat fascist nihilism through the power of love and five-year plans. They even devise a way of producing infinite bio-matter for the Tyranid by instantiating Chaos Gods into realspace to be devoured endlessly. The Tyranid-Tau Settlement is signed, guaranteeing that the Tyranid will never expand beyond their borders on pain of getting their infinite food supply taken away. The Orks are given an entire sector to hang out in, where they also send all the space fascists that are still alive to do jolly combat. The Emperor is deprived of his psykers through sanctions (approved by the Commonwealth of course) leading him to get even drier.
In the end, Blue Khrushchev denounces the "mind-control" of the wily Ethereal Aun O'Tau Steel-Worker of the Central Commitee and the dang rogue traders liberalize the economy. Trillions die.

You could have a Tau Collaborator storyline, especially if you leaned into 3rd/4th edition interpretations of the Tau
