Why didn’t he just create more resources?

But then everyone reproduces all over again

Why didn’t he just modify everyone’s fertility rates?

He could have made every process only cost half the resources

He would have to do it on a case by case basis, as some creatures can spawn much more than anything else on earth.

It would fuck humans over, but who knows what the fuck is out in the entire universe.

Why didn’t he just sterilize half the universe?

That would effectively do the same thing other than you still have bodies taking up resources before they die off.

He shouldn't have killed half, more like 75-80%. It is still flawed as it would only buy you a couple hundred years before it's back, it would make sense if he just built a god fortress and kept snapping.

Thanos legitimately thought it would be the end all as he fucking destroyed the stones in endgame. What a complete fucking retard.

Why didn't he remove 13%

>the universe is a zero sum game
Why was he such a fucking retard? And why didn't anyone challenge his views? Tony Stark, the post-war capitalist, should certainly know that development and progress does create more resources.

because it's a story for fucking kids. the fact that grown ass men are trying to defend it says more about the audience than the writing.

>cause he had only like a minute when he had all the stones and was attacked by thor soon after.
teleport away, look into future, snap. he could use reality stone and turn thor into is bitch. he could mindcontrol thor. stupid thanos should have teleported away the second he had the last stone.

Yeah I think the main problem is observing this scene from an afterthought perspective.

Dude was in the heat of the moment, sure he was a supergenius but at the time he thought and omega blast would stop the mystery object heading towards him.

The only thing he was sure of doing when getting the gauntlet was snapping. It's easy to point out all the wrong things you did after the fact, and for some reason people just have that disconnect with tv show characters.

Kek

What bothers me the most is that he have to physically snap his finger to use the power and that's very dumb. The first micro second you have the gauntlet you become master of everything why snap?

look at the battle on titan. he teleports away the moment he has what he wants. it wouldn't be out of character if he just teleports away right after getting the mindstone. and he had the reality stone, he could had turned thors axe into dust. it just doesn't made sense.

WHY DOESN'T SOCIALISM WORK!

>Have time Stone
>Look forward in time 5 minutes, which is done almost instantly
>See thor fuck you up
>Instantly teleport to somewhere safe
>take time to see the future there

It's not rocket science. And it he looked 5 minutes ahead and saw it was fine, then he knows he can take atleast 5 minutes to safely view the further futures.

Also to the OP, Nothing can't be created from something, 2rd law of ThoroughDynamics.

he used all the stones on the axe, it was made out of a material that had some resistance to the stones.

It's deus ex machina, but it was forshadowed well into the movie that their whole purpose was to make a thanos killing weapon.

It symbolise his release of power.
It did at least.
In endgame this was kinda stupid when they rtied to interrupt his snap, if he literally could just think about it and it will be done.

>universe is infinitely large
>universe has an infinite amount of planets
>universe has an infinite amount of people
>thanos halves the population of the universe
>an inifinite divided by two
>there's still an infinite amount of people left
Thanos didnt do shit

That was sooo stupid idea. And his proof of him being right.
There was a much better cause in comics. At least, it was believable.

>Nothing can't be created from something
>2rd law of ThoroughDynamics
Haha, what the fuck?

>muh second law
That's implying that literally every piece of earth is used in some way. Because earth can be turned into food, energy or whatever without violating the second law of thermodynamics.

wrong

> double earths mass
> gravity kills more people
yeah nice one retard

This. He could just as well have jerked one out to kill half the population. Hell, it would probably have worked even better thematically.

culling half the universe isn't a stupid idea, the fact that he thought it was a one and done deal is what is stupid.

Doubling the resources is fucking stupid. When you cull half the universe, you cull half of everyones bullshit too.

And when you remember that in marvel comics there are infinite universes that all makes no sence at all

There was no need for a culling to save life anyway

It's bullshit because of the firs law of thermodynamics.
When half of universe is just vanished, all their energy is lost which is impossible.
His cause makes no scense at all. Doing it to earn Death's attantion is much more believable.

The whole point was that the universe has finite resources, when you have more resources species flourish. They would end up consuming even more resources because they have more.

You would have to selectively distribute the excess resources. As if you weigh the odds too much on one end you get a population expansion unheard of by one species or another.

This is also a universal scale, who knows what crazy shit is out there beyond earth, and what they would do with double resources.

Snapping half the population is the easiest way of getting rid of half of the organisms causing a problem. Sure he could have snapped more, 50% was apart of muh balance though.

The main problem of his plan was thinking that just one snap is going to solve the problem. Which it would buy the universe a couple hundred years at most.

They turned into dust, they didn't just blip out of existence. It's like half of life was incinerated into carbon.

>he used all the stones on the axe
no, he didn't. using all stones at once made him a cripple.

>It's deus ex machina, but it was forshadowed well into the movie that their whole purpose was to make a thanos killing weapon.
thanos defeat himself.

Yeah, well, where did the heat go if they turned into dust?
And, where did all dust go? They just vanished.

What would his tax policy going to be once the remaining half of the population recognized that he was right all along and crowned him as their godking?

50% of your income. Pretty easy math. Balanced

He was chill after the snap, Thanos is capable of using the stones repeatedly. What made him a cripple was using the stones to destroy the stones.

They turned into dust piles and blew away, sure it would make an enormous amount of ash and dust but the planet could take it.

>nothing can’t be created from something
Explain the beginning of the universe, which we know happened

Universe was always existed. That's all we know for shure. It may expand so big that it collase one day, and beging to expand again, but for now we know nothing about it.
Human mind can't imagine or understand this, so all talks about it is nothing but our guesses.

there are more types of energy they could turned into without doing harm or even get recognized by regular humans.

>doubling resources is stupid
So is halfing the population since it also halfs resources. Instead what would happen is that there would be a baby boom on every planet which would also speed up evolution as species fill the now vacant niches until the universe returned to a state of equilibrium (thats right the universe already is in equilibrium or is always in the natural process of reaching it).

microfluctuations of energy on quantum level.
the energy for that was always there.

based and ProNeetpilled

Universe is always in balance.
If something endangering humanity - that's problem of humanity, not universe.
When humans are gone - another will take their place.

you're wrong. we understand how big bang happened, we just don't understand why. like the causality behind it.

Shoulda killed 99%, fresh start.

The study for that was disproven later, I remember reading about that too. Was really cool, I was hoping it was real
I would agree but surveying cosmic radiation and just our observable universe dictate the fact that there was a beginning. We guesstimate the 13 billion but there is no way to tell

Creating resources doesn't solve the problem, nor does killing half of all life.

>create more resources
population explodes until there's another resource shortage

>kill half of all life
population eventually returns to its original levels.

The entire premise is bad. Running out of resources? The entire universe? What about renewable resources? How can a universe that's nearly unlimited in size run out of resources? What about alien species that are small in numbers? What about ones that are indefinitely self-sustaining?

His whole issue doesn't make any sense if you think about it more than 10 seconds. Running out of resources? How? Are all lifeforms in the galaxy running out of their own resources at the same time? Is it happening now or is it happening 1000 years from now? A million years from now?

it makes no fucking sense.

All he had to do was go back in time and institute a two child policy (or whatever replacement rate is)
