I do not see much woke stuff related to it, other then "journalists" complaining about female and black representation.
Does this mean it is going to be next?
Got me wondering after find out this anti-white racist, Christian hating dude is a writer on Space Marine 2:
Think about it for a moment. Imagine you are an anti-christian, white-hating wokefaggot 'fortunate' enough to be writing 40k content.
What exactly can you do? Portray the white supersoldiers as evil psychopathic mega-racist retard zealots who are ignorant bigots that don't understand anything around them and just murder their way across the galaxy?

It's like trying to shame ISIS by pointing out their cruelty and misogyny. It doesn't work, because they're fucking PROUD of it.
This isn't to say 40k is immune, but rather that they will have to subvert the very top of the company before they can meaningfully effect the fluff.
40K is so fundamentally based that it is almost impossible to subtly subvert. The entire universe needs to be destroyed in one go.
They did that with Age of Suckmar.
Age of Ligma.
Step 1 - Emperor finally dies and replaced by a a much superior empress, she will be stronger, compassionate and black. Suddenly The T'au and Eldar want to make peace, because she is that good.
Step 2 - Marines are no longer male only - for inclusivity and all that.
Step 3 - War is problematic and Humans will be the only ones that are evil. Women will control all the Space Marine Chapters cause the true enemy is testosterone.
Yeah, so basically 'throw out absolutely everything all at once'.
Everything in 40k is so anathema to wokeness, so autistically interlinked, and so guarded by GW's high sperglords that the slow, piecemeal degredation they subjected other franchises to over the last decade just doesn't work.
Step 4. Get devoured by slaanesh because rampant degeneracy really helps him/her/it
Am I the only one who thinks that would make a cool villain?
Exactly. It can't be undermined subtly. It has to be a huge rewrite, and that's way way harder to get GW to give the green light to - most of 40k's key lore has gone completely unchanged for over 35 years. This isn't the Marvel or DC universes where there's a reboot every decade or less.
