Quite a lot of channels mentioning it along with the fact since Henry Cavill has been confirmed with Amazon to do a series, sales have gone up.
Now, GW have been known to do dumb shit, hell their plus media venture and using copyright as a bludgeon against fan work was REALLY dumb, but this whole thing played out seems like there was at least a few smart people in charge at GW.
We know GW has activists, the fact that Arch is a banned name in GW shows that, and the activists WANT female Space Marines, Amazon full of leftists wanted female Space Marines but the ones with brains at GW know that will kill their company. So they do female Custodes to SHOW the backlash, which goes on to affect the deals in talk with Amazon. I don't think it's a coincidence that we ended up with this as the recent thing Amazon made with 40k. Between that and Space Marine 2, it seems like this Custodes issue was used to silence the activists and tourists and show where the money is, and now that's been done, they're deleting it.
Would be nice but without an official statement that says that Custodes are ONLY male this can be just them sidelining for a later date. I for one stopped following and did not bother in buying miniatures since the female custodies - despite my main army being black templars. I've even stopped painting what I already have.
I honest to god hate that a win can never be a win, but this is the right attitude to have. This is far, far more likely to be a case of putting the agenda on hold, not halting stopping or going back to sanity.
I wish it is them returning to sanity, but it's just too unlikely to be the case.
I don't mind that my consumer habits have changed due to the rot. I waste less money now, I feel more free and I don't miss any of it. There are better things.
I agree on that front, but it still sucks that a win cannot simply be a win, that there's always that nagging point that it's probably not a win and instead it's just a temporary pause.
The fight against marxism is perpetual.
Soon: "He IS male. He was merely ASSIGNED female AT BIRTH. Be better."
Brother, get the heavy flamer.
This is the way. Stop giving companies that hate you money. Your wallet is the only way you can resist. That is until government forcibly takes it from you via taxes and gives it to woke feminist trash.
