Galactic population also would have been right back where it was in, at most, a few centuries. It was a stopgap solution at best. And his comics motivation wasn’t anything noble; he just wanted to bang Death and thought omnicide would turn her on.
Thanos spending decades trying to become the most powerful being in the universe in order to make sure life doesn’t outgrow the resources it depends on without once thinking that there was a solution other than murdering half of all life is not a convincing storyline.
Thanos spending decades trying to kill trillions of people because he was horny is a 100% convincing motive.
I don’t know about the comics, but there is real life result from having better education curtailing overpopulation. The Earth’s population as we speak is expected to plateau, as the rest of the developing countries are catching up economically and becoming better educated. I don’t see why the galactic population can’t be the same.
Thanos also has a point
He could have snapped and make everyone to be smarter and learn about contraceptives and family planning.

And that’s a reason i can get behind

People still agree with Malthus?
I think it’s a teen / young adult thing. The proscriptive asceticism of it has a certain appeal before you have much in the way of life experience.
But then you realise we don’t actually have a resource problem.
Just gotta look at the instance. Lemmy ml means 99% chance they are marxist fascists aka tankies.
That’s not what I’ve observed
You have zero understanding of any of the words in this conversation.
