    Musk as Lex Luthor would be a better fit, and even that might be insulting to Luthor.

      Thanos was the universe's biggest mass murderer, but at least he had a point (even if his solution was the dumbest thing imaginable}. Musk is just a PoS.

      In the comics Thanos was straight up the right man hand/side hoe of the concept of death made manifest the whole point of offing half of all life was just to make mistress death happy (I think she actually ordered it). A lot of the original plot points of the infinity war and its buildup was lost in translation. Movie thanos motivations werent even half baked, he could have doubled resources and made a paradise for life with his motivations

        I guess that tracks because Thanos is stupid as fuck.

        Trying to solve the resource problem by killing half of the universe just doesn't help. In a couple of decades, the population would be back to the previous number.

        He could just snap his fingers and make those missing resources appear. Whole empty planets for people to live with abundance etc.

        It feels like he thought of the problem for like one minute and decided to take the easiest short term solution possible.

              he was doing it to prevent the celestials from emerging from planets killing the population. im guessing he probably thought of that already that alreayd, adding more natural resources would accelerate the emergence. also seems the stones is not powerful enough to affect celestials, or primordial beings(death, GOD, angels,,,etc), otherwise he wouldve just used it to kill them. he is stupid in that having the 6 stones, why dint he conjure about things that can kill celestials.

                and the population would still bounce back. He could have ended scarcity entirely and no one would have tried to stop him.

                The comics version of him just wanted to have sex with Death. Its also stupid, but it at lease makes sense. The fact that it is stupid makes it even more realistic.

                  A lot of people only knew him as the EV and space guy until the last few years. In that light he seemed alright.

                    ITT: people saying they always knew

                    What I am upvoting: people talking about how their perception of him changed

                    I have a not-quite-physics degree (I could not mentally bring myself to do the proper physics capstone, but I basically have a physics degree.) I have had multiple conversations with astrophysicists, astronauts, and people who know their shit.

                    It has always been abundantly clear to me that he has been full of shit. I had to play coy a lot because I had some association with NASA, but the man does not know shit about rockets or physics and it’s always been abundantly clear to anyone who does.

                    I doubt he could do a simple kinematics problem.

                      He has been a scumbag since forever.
                      From the Thai 'pedophile' incident to wanting to keep his factories open in peak Covid times under Biden.
                      All was OK when he served blue MAGA.

                        Thanos, really? I'd say more like Hancock.
                        Pathetic and most likely forgotten by everyone 20 years later.
                        Screen grab from the movie Hancock, where Will Smith plays a washed up amnesiac & alcoholic super hero. Image shows him flying above a highway wearing a dirty beanie, sunglasses and drinking from a bottle of whiskey

                          Because that was hamfisted in. Originally, he wanted to kill half the universe to impress Lady Death.

                              The Thai incident was I think the big event for a lot of people who until then though well of him.

                                  Sexually harassing his employees hit the headlines in 2016; rumours before that. Inserting himself into the Thai cave rescue and the "pedo guy" slander was 2018. Hyperloop was 2013. No Lidar on Tesla. If you've been paying attention he's been outing himself for a long time.
