      I mean I can be the one who snaps my finger and rids the universe of fascism and other people can be the ones living in a better world and calling me history's greatest monster, I'm fine with that

      I don't think literal genocide is ridding the world of fascism, alas.

      I would also take the rather less high-minded argument of "play shitty genocidal games, win genocidal prizes." Every one of Thanos' troops was in on a quest to wipe out much of life. Some significant fraction of them were basically mindless drones. They don't get to complain.

      we don't know anything about Thanos' troops, who are portrayed as caricatured mindless monsters, much like orcs in Middle Earth.

      Eh, I'm going to go with "killing the people trying to kill you + trillions of innocents" is okay, even if some of them were conscripts. If we accept the premise of the story, then lethal violence is justified here.

      I think the angle with Tony's snap specifically would be, "Is lethal violence *still* justified granted the other options that near-infinite power might grant you?" But bearing in mind that he has exactly one shot and very little time to think.

      Doctor Strange's statement that out of over 14 million scenarios this was the only one that ended in defeat for Thanos heavily implies that any solution less than the utter annihilation of him and his death cult was doomed to failure.

      yes, propagandists often say they have no other choice but to invade Iraq, drop an atom bomb, or muder all the Jews.

      How exactly is killing the Children of Thanos a better metaphor for the Holocaust than for the Nuremberg Trials

      I mean the Children explicitly aren't a "race" or a "culture" We're explicitly shown this, they're randomly chosen individuals from each of the species Thanos has genocided who get inducted into his army

          They're all combatants, they're a military They really tried to remove as much moral ambiguity here as they could

          (The Chitauri explicitly WERE presented as a species and/or culture who were all Chaotic Evil Space Orcs and the new idea of the Children of Thanos was a deliberate revision)
