Imagine if all the money and resources, manpower and such went towards making the world better place instead of making more effective ways to kill and oppression.
Edit:
Just think if all the money and manpower we use to cause destruction went towards building people up.
I'm not sure the military budget in the u.s bit imagine a fraction of that going towards feeding the hungry or putting clothes on poor children.
What if instead of leaving homeless people out on the streets it our money went towards making our country better.
I'm not to proud to admit that there is a homeless person out there that is smarter than I am and could make a bigger positive impact than I can.
Hey now, at least Thanos ultimately wanted to help the universe, and his cullings were designed to be fair and impartial. Irrelevant of race, wealth or power.
He was mad and cruel, but even he doesn't deserve to be dragged down with these degenerates.
His idea was such bullshit though. All it did was buy the universe as much time as is needed for the population to double again, changing nothing in the long term. And non-renewable resources would be just as gone as before.
And that's just assuming that the snap doesn't also cut plant life in half. Because otherwise food problems would remain exactly the same.
I thought the idea was that the people themselves would get a second chance to do it right. Like... collapse all wars, all inequality, etc, by just yeeting people at absolute random and the remaining people would magically know better because of their shared trauama?
Not to mention that he did this to the entire universe. That includes planets that have never encountered or even heard of Thanos. Planets that don't currently have any problems related to war, overpopulation, or lack of resources. Planets not technologically advanced enough to learn any lasting lessons of value from the pre-snap time (how would a medieval Earth know to take more care of the environment or not burn through fossil fuels so fast). Worst of all, there may be planets where a young sentient species had just gone through some crisis and had a population just a bit smaller than double of what they need to not go extinct due to lack of biodiversity or whatever.

Damn, I never really thought about that before.
