Here's a link.

Does it fail as satire? Does this kind of thing work as good satire for specific people? Somebody explain.

Lore was updated to make the Tau suck.

Wait do you have a link? Sorry I’m lazy googlewise but you’re saying they aren’t buddhist trots anymore?

I'm not too deep into 40k lore, but I think it ended up being something along the line of classic anti-communist brainworms, about how any good ideology is actually just a smokescreen so a small elite can rule over everyone with lies and manipulation, because obviously a society couldn't actually pursue a noble goal without there being an ulterior motive. Also, collectivism bad, individualism good, Tau bad for disrespecting :freeze-peach: and forcing ideology on others.
