The shadow in the warp is believed to be an effect of the hive mind wherever there's a vast amount of tyranid synaptic traffic. Living on a planet for decades while an armada of hungry mouths slowly approach sounds so much worse than many other deaths in setting, I can imagine the populace just voting for nuclear death out of spite.

A ship of 50k people is a lot, but it wouldn't be that hard to get a member of the crew proper to pop in and give a motivational speech to each block once a year rather than once every 70 It's different on rogue trader ships, the lesser crew is not necessarily indoctrinated on the whole 'glorious crusade' thing (though many RTs do go for that). Often it's some horrible hybrid of modern corporate culture and slavery (think East India Company)

That's often a class/wealth thing for the dregs of RT ship dregs: if you can work in dangerous fields such as the ship's armed forces you get some actual accommodations and such, possibly climbing the ladder to less-faceless-cog. plenty of people just inhabit the more remote spaces in the ship, gathering water condensation and hunting rats. those guys are of course much more likely to gradually devolve to mutation and chaos and RTs often send groups of

Brother Gregorious, did you notice how we never leave a planet with a triumph and adoring crowds anymore? -Yes, I think that didn't happen since the Heresy when we stopped taking orders and started enslaving and sacrificing worlds to Chaos. Correct, and I put it all down to the Imperium getting weak and degenerate! -I completely agree with your logic.
