So I get transported to a futuristic utopia with Replicators and Holodecks, or I immediately get killed by a Space Marine or whatever.

Either way I don't have to live in this shithole any more. ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ I'm pressing it.

With all the endless war the Imperium is so huge most of the humans probably never saw war and space marines are so rare it's almost impossible for you to be killed by them.

Even on "safe" planets, the average person is basically a slave doing endless, arduous labor with no concern for their lives or well-being, all under the merciless thumb of Imperial dogma. It's just a bad place to end up.
