I reviewed the lore about Roboute's 500 world project. I won't lie, it's looking pretty grim.
Roboute is replacing the semi-independent systems of Imperial worlds (feudalism) with straight-up fascism, Astartes fascism! The lore treats this as a good thing. The only way that mankind can survive what's to come. What is GW smoking?!
He is doing it forcefully. Sure, he asks nicely first, but if he is refused, his Ultramarines and their legions of Auxilia will force the worlds to kneel before Macragge. The disobedient rulers who cling to the old ways and/or are more loyal to Terra are replaced with Space Marines or mortal rulers who know their place. And all of them answer to the Tetrarchs, who in turn answer to Roboute, not the Emperor and certainly not the High Lords of Terra.
The resources and manpower of the Imperial worlds drawn into the sphere of Ultramar flow toward Macragge rather than Terra. The wealthy industrial world of Garranox is on the brink of breaking itself as it attempts to pay the tithe to Terra and fulfill its obligation to Ultramar, so it's unrealistic for Imperial worlds to support both sides.
Roboute plans to enforce his social and political reforms across hundreds of worlds. In the name of progress and enlightenment, Roboute is employing tyrannical means. It's a precursor for his new vision for the Imperium.
The irony here is that what Roboute is doing in the south echoes what Abaddon is doing in the north. Following the theme of Roboute and Abaddon being mirror images of each other, Abaddon's Dark Imperium is a mirror of Roboute's expanding Ultramar. Both claim that they are honouring the ideals of the Great Crusade. Both want to save the Imperium from itself and reshape it in the image of Space Marine supremacy (in opposition to the explicit wishes of the Emperor). So, how is Avenging Son any better than the Warmaster?
Imperial traditionalists and conservatives are raising alarms against this overstep by the Primarch. The nobility across many worlds within and nearby Ultramar are staging resistance. Inquisitors are monitoring the situation. And surely the High Lords are sweating bullets.
Now, why is it funny? Imperial fans for years rejected the notion that the Imperium is fascist, but here is Roboute with his plans to blanket the entirety of the Imperium under fascistic rule. Truly, in many ways, Roboute is Wokehammer's greatest ally.

Obviously, resistance was not strong enough, or lasted long enough.
Everything, and we mean everything, turned out exactly how these Parents, Mothers and Fathers, saw coming; the children had to fight...and in one generation, were outnumbered, and put in harms way.
These uniformed pinkertons, roughed up women and children, and arrested fathers, brothers, and sons, who fought the good fight.
Of course this is what happens when people fail to see themselves as 'counterrevolutionaries', and lack the necessary support from entrenched political hacks, as well as funding.
Your world is not the panacea that was promised you, by the hiss of the serpent then, as it is now. If you want to save your heritage, then this heritage must be the only mission, that you are willing to struggle for. Nothing else matters, if you are to survive.

We should revive traditional clothing.
So many cultures have really cool traditions and manufacturing techniques shaped by local materials and climate.
Everything has become so homogenized now that many people don’t even know how their ancestors dressed.

Guangxi gets a 4-day official holiday for the Zhuang ethnic group in March. Because in China, minorities have their own holidays, and these are respected under the law.

This is why it appears all over the world, in all places and all times. The Dipper is circumpolar and never sets below the horizon, so it's always visible spinning around the immovable Pole Star/Axis Mundi. As Homer writes in the Odyssey,
"...the Great Bear that mankind also calls the Wagon [Big Dipper]: she wheels on her axis always fixed, watching the Hunter [Orion], and she alone is denied a plunge in the Ocean’s baths. [circumpolar, never setting]"

"The Americans gave us this idea of multiculturalism that suited their society fine, but which, as software, is not compatible with our German hardware of the welfare state… There’s this family metaphor spreading everywhere: the idea that all of humanity is our family. That idea helped destroy the Roman Empire. Now we’re in danger of letting that metaphor get out of control all over again. People are not ready to feel the full pressure of coexistence with billions of their contemporaries."
