Affordable Warhammer means that large company buys small lovely company.

large Company then mass produces product from now defunct small lovely company and makes it more accessible and better. Profits then are raised next quarter and shareholders get dividends


See Disney buying Marvel and Lucasfilm.

The experience over the years
of nothing getting better
only worse.
Cultural Bolshevism (German: Kulturbolschewismus) was a term widely used during the Third Reich by critics to denounce modernism in the arts, particularly when seeking to discredit more nihilistic forms of expression. This became an issue during the 1920s in Weimar Germany. German artists such as Max Ernst and Max Beckmann, were denounced by the Nazis as "cultural Bolsheviks".

Also remember that time that DND wanted to keep all the doctors and smart people prisoner because if they left the country for another country that paid them better that could upset their communist utopia that was supposed to be "freer" than America.


Free countries usually don't have secret tattle tale police.
