As a human the Imperials are the good guys

[zuniger]

This is a galaxy in which the "good guys" were massacred long before humanity ever was a thing. (old ones)

[Vorebait]

ok

[Seto]

The orks are the good guys. They just wanna have a fun time.

The good guys don't decimate a planet via space laser.. no the imperium are not good.

[Meowser has not]

clearly the people wearing other people's skulls as hats are the good guys

[tyke]

this is a known phenomena of the american when encountering 40k and trying to make sense of it is that they start talking about who are the 'good guys' and 'bad guys'.

[Wyck]

There are no good guys in 40k there is only contest - who is Biggest and Baddes A-hole.

[Not A cheeky Chap]

There is no good guys in 40K every faction are different shades of black to the point it easily turns into grimmderp.

[TemplarGFX]

I dont think there really is a 'good guys' side in 40K. Tau maybe but they have some dark stuff hidden in their closet too

[BEEP!]

The only good guy is papa Nurgle

Suffer not the unclean to live.

The bottom line is that in the 40k Universe there are no "Good" guys. In fact the closest thing we have is the Tau and even then they're not "good" either.

Did the Imperium decimate a planet with a space laser or did the untold amount of heretics living on it? think about that.

I think what OP was getting at is that the humans of the Imperium view the Imperium as being the one and only "good guy". And in a way this is true since they're just constantly being brainwashed 24/7 to believe this, obviously in reality the Imperium is awful.

It is said that heresy is like a tree.
It's roots lie in the darkness while it's leaves wave in the sun. You can prune away its branches, even cut the tree to the ground but it will grow again, ever stronger.
Such is the nature of heresy and why it is so difficult to destroy. Some may question my right to destroy a world of ten billion souls, but those who truly understand realize I have no right to let them live. No sacrifice is too great; no treachery too small
