Editing Cybernetic Revolt (section)

==Not perfect and flawed==
First of all, while this is was most certainly Humanity's golden age, this was only due to comparison to the rest of history. Yes, you had more people living on [[Rimworld|ultratech Glitterworlds]] and Elysium style orbital rings than ever before (and after), but this does not mean every human had the golden parts of this era available. As a matter of fact, there were even populations of humanity culled to "keep them genetically in line" during this era. The Butchers Nails were also developed this period (and was in the STC), which that alone already says quite a bit. Humanity also wasn't some giant homogeneous galactic federation either. It was a vast collection of divergent civilizations that had many wars between each other, and the many other xenos civilizations of the galaxy. Navigator families, and industrial and trade cartels, and mega corporations were individual forces in their own right. At the very least, quite a few DAoT civilizations were extremely arrogant and dickish to their Galactic neighbors, as I say another Custodes 8th edition quote "The vast reaches of the galaxy shrank as Mankind’s capabilities grew, and alien races were driven back into the shadows by the fierce light of human progress". Now consider the xenos relations of the new Leagues of Votann faction, which is essentially the faction that is closest to DAoT societies. The Leagues, while usually not as outright vigilant and hostile towards xenos like the Imperium, shows a general disregard to their Galactic neighbors, caring only for themselves, and steamrolling anyone standing in their way, willingly or not. Despite the many millennia that has passed, it is clear as day that the Leagues have inherited the expansionist and colonialist attitudes from their DAoT ancestors, along with much of their culture and tech. Of course, we still definitely have examples of DAoT civilizations actually being pretty chummy with their xenos neighbors, but it seems as though the infection of arrogance had spread far and wide throughout human space. And of course, we still can't forget about asshole xenos such as the [[Orks]] and the [[Eldar]], whose conflicts inflicted heavy casualties to DAoT humanity. So we know that the DAoT era was flawed and was only golden by comparison. But what happened to spark the revolt?
