Fuck off. Thanos was a decent person who had a good idea.
Musk is a piece of shit.
Yeah, no. He was not decent and his idea of halving "all life in the universe" to save resources was proof that he lacked a second neuron to realize that, at best, that would just postpone the problem
Thanos was Hollywood's continued slander of Environmentalists via straw-men. They can not and will not portray any treat to the status quo as good because to succeed in Hollywood, you need to learn to navigate said status quo.
Musk isn't far from Stark as Stark could have scaled up his Arc Reactor and made dirty energy obsolete, but didn't the same way that Musk could run his businesses and treat his employees fairly, but chooses not to out of pure ego.
Just do it again from time to time.
Can set a reminder for every 10 years. You don't have to be a genius for that.
Honestly people don't think at all do they?
He destroyed the stones though.
Just remake them every 10 years. Can't be that hard.
No he wasn't, his idea was shit.
Halving something means that, at 7% growth per year, you're right back where you were in 10 years. Traumatic events usually make people multiply like bunnies for a while so yeah.. Even in the best case scenario, he'd murder trillions of people, traumatize the rest, and all that to buy "the universe" what, 10, 20, maybe 30 years.
Instead he could go out and teach everyone how to become responsible. Slowly have less babies until, you know, the world evens out in a good number. Earth can be quite nice and stable with, say, 5 billion people, and then you make sure that in average, just as many people are born as they die. Use taxes and other things to control that. Nobody needs to suffer or be bloody murdered or winked out of existence, no dictatorship necessary, just nice teaching.
Or he could've just doubled all the resources in the universe.
If you can kill half the universe you could create an infinite resource glitch.
Doubling or halving anything would not solve the problem if growth is the problem.
I mean he has a glove that can rewrite the fundamental nature of the universe. He could've figured it out.
The funniest part though is that in the comics he only wanted to wipe out half of all life to impress lady death who Thanos was in love with. But apparently a dude wiping half the universe to try to stop getting cucked by Deadpool doesn't make a great story for a movie.
Lol. Some people get way too involved in some mythical lore.
It's all irrelevant with the time travel bullshit anyway in Marvel universe. Nothing bad can happen because you can just reverse it all.
Eh, it's not that I'm involved in it, I saw the movies, that's about it. It just struck me as a seriously dumb idea. This enormously powerful guy who wants to make the universe better by killing half of the people. it was just dumb.
'Mass murder' is not a 'good idea' in any context.
Still better than elon
Thanos literally had the power to will any resource and reality into existence and he chose to destroy. Let's call it good intention, but idiotic and psychotic solution.
But that's what made him a good villan.
I now see Elon as Justin Hammer.
He damaged his personal image, started working with terrorists, and began trying to replicate other people's technology.
He wishes he had rockwell's swag.
... like... eugenics...?
Oh hi Malthus
