      I agree with you. At least it appears the movie positions the guy who wants to kill everyone as bad. (Like I said, haven't seen it.) The people complaining that a work of fiction admits an allegorical reading are the ones I'm worried about.https://twitter.com/BootlegGirl/status/990617896194785286 …

      I'm just saying, the fact that we have to worry that people will agree with a supervillain whose entire motivation is "death is good, actually, when it happens to a lot of people who aren't me," that reflects rather poorly on our entire civilization

      I mean, the thing is, this is a this escalated quickly situation in the early 2000s, people became concerned about a feedback loop (as I am sure you recall) between media specifically about torture and people's actual beliefs about torture

      It seems like the worriers were correct, people who tortured others (I've spoken to at least one) have said media helped convince them it was correct but then media became generally concerned with "how far can one man [usually] go, if everyone's life is on the line?"

      and it's sort of unclear whether that really was politically specific enough to make a difference, but probably fed the Obama era discourse about compromise etc.

      but like, at no point did anyone even think that you could make an entertaining movie about the question "is it right to kill half of all people because it seems fair to you, a large man with a glove?" But now that is a movie everyone is going to see

      Just based on the trailers Brolin is doing a similar but smaller scale version of the same bit as Cable in Deadpool 2. That is less than ideal. One could argue that Thanos’s plan is beyond regular consideration but Cable’s appears to be less so.

      I mean in the DP2 trailer Deadpool calls Cable Thanos sarcastically

      I have to wonder if someone making Deadpool knew that Infinity War was going with a “hard man making hard decisions” Thanos instead of traditional “Incel Goth” Thanos when they cast Brolin.
