      Killing off half the population of the galaxy isn't actually a good way to solve any social problems, including so-called overpopulation. For one thing, it would take most species only a generation or two to return to old population level.

      If they had only made Thanos an incel (as in the comics) the movie would've been more realistic and timely.

          Plus you'd have the hilarious scenario of Thanos hating Deadpool because Death got with the class clown instead of the brooding emo kid.

          Someone at Marvel is convinced that the height of dramatic tension is showing that exaggerated analogs of liberal ideals can lead to villainy. Almost every villain.

          Exaggerated analogs of any ideal can lead to villainy. Marvel didn’t invent this trope.

          Of course, but they are heavily emphasizing it.

          That was actually the plot of Infinity War in the comics (no joke).

          Maybe he IS an incel. That would also explain why his daughters are acquired by involuntary adoption
