Man, Chaos would have a field day with you. All they'd have to tell you is that the current regime isn't truly doing what the Emperor would have wanted, and that it's up to you to rise up in His name and despose of them. And boom, they have another willing agent weakening the imperium from within, convinced with holy fury that's he's doing the 'right thing'. So many rebellions have started from people having a different intepretation of what they think the emperor would really want them to do.

In fact, even without any chaos or external threats, you're nicely showing why the Imperium as it is is doomed to a cycle of internal strife and bloody conflict: without big E himself stepping of the throne and telling people very directly what he wants, all it takes is some blokes going "hmm, they're not praising the emperor quite enough, let's fuck 'em up." to plunge humanity into more futile self-harm.
You're clearly spreading dissent - first you say that praising the Emperor is bad and then you claim this isin't what Emperor would have wanted. You're clearly Chaos lackey wanting to sow an seed of doubt in my heart, but I shall let you know that you have failed, for I will never stop praising the Immortal God-Emperor of Mankind, for he is the saviour of humanity and from His Golden Throne, He leads us to glorious future!

RC is the thread governor, his powers are granted by empra himself. Dissent against thread government is heresy, heretic.

I do particularly like that one thing that speculates on what happens after Emps dies. I forget the name of it? Some of the ideas in it are a little campy of deus ex machina, but it's actually a pretty good read.

No man is safe from the taint of corruption! The thread governor is clearly a heretic! But worry not, Loyal Imperial Citizens, the Inquisiton has been informed of this treachery! May this sacrilege not stop, the Exterminatus shall follow!

Indeed, it's called Warhammer 50K: The Shape Of The Nightmare To Come.
There's also Warhammer 60K: Age of Dusk.

Emperor is just manifestation of Omnissiah
No he's not. The Emperor isn't the "manifestation" of the Omnissiah, he IS the Omnissiah. Saying he's the "manifestation" of the Omnissiah is like saying Jesus is the "manifestation" of the Messiah. Jesus IS the Messiah, the Emperor IS the Omnissiah.

What the Omnissiah is is the avatar of the Machine God, who is the god of all machines and knowledge. In this way, the Emperor, as he is the Omnissiah, is the physical avatar of the Machine God, and as he is the physical avatar of the Machine God, he is the Omnissiah.

It is foul, foul heresy. You should ignore it and cast it from your mind.

All fanfics are heresy, each and every one, especially the shipping ones. Those are by far the worst.

Guys, you have to read this! It's hilarious! It's basically the Fall of Cadia as written by the Imperium's propaganda machine.

Well, it was kinda not bad, you could kinda name it a victory for Imperium, since it was a phyrric victory for Chaos, at best, considering what Fall of Cadia did to Eye of Terror.

Spoiler: Basically: (click to show/hide)
And that in just one book from a series called "Gathering Storm" or something along the lines... PLOT ADVANCEMENT, BATTLE BROTHERS, PREPARE FOR THE PLOT ADVANCEMENT!
Spoiler: Basically yes (click to show/hide)
In the end this isint a complete fuckup like AoS or those multiple End Times from FB, as status quo is more or less mantained for now, but its a cool piece of lore that gives hope for some Fun Times.
EDIT:
Spoiler: Also: (click to show/hide)
EDIT2:
If you think about it, Regimental Standard isin't far from truth - with the Cadian Gate getting bigger Cadia would no longer be a major base, Chaos took severe losses, Cadians are going to be pissed and Creed might as well be leading another attack against enemies of the Imperium due to Trollzyn trolls.[/colour]
