Dat Infinity Glove

Ok, so if the stones are demonstrated to be sentient. Of -the greatest artifact in the universe- that certainly makes sense..

WHICH MEANS,  if the stones Didn't think culling half of all Lifeforms in the Universe was a good idea,  they wouldn't have allowed it,  just as how the Space-Stone banished Red Skull to be field guide to the Soul-Stone (Forever)...


So.. Clearly, that means, from the perspective of the Stones,   Thanos was doing the right thing ??

Then , the Oldest non-god character of MCU and the Greatest artifacts are in agreement.

Wouldn't it then be mere human-life-hubris to purport that WE (life itself) know better ??

Thanos and the stones were something that Jim Starlin dreamed up when he resurrected Captain Marvel in the early 1970s.

Steve Ditko created Dr Strange in the early 1960s and the Eye of Agamotto was never linked to anything else at the time.

Loki did not have a staff in the traditional comic days.
"Starting in 2011, the deficits again started to shrink. During Obama’s term  the deficit was reduced by $900 Billion  before finally in 2015 the GOP managed to wrangle a “reconciliation” bill out of Obama where he again cut corporate taxes, as well as made permanent some of George W. Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

I think on that level good and bad are relatively non-existent; more or less when you have that power your stance is more amoral than anything.

As for us; that's just natural instinct to survive. Definitely would make for a boring movie should they have just went, "Hm, well okay. Guess it's like a coin flip, good luck Thor!". Or interesting if it was done as viewing their last moments and the avengers going crazy trying to live their last day to the fullest.

Thanos represented a male phallus and the glove was clearly a manifestation of the stranglehold the patriarchy has on modern society. Disgusting.

The world doesn't work that way.


It's seeeemingly patriarchal because the politics involve mainly male figure-heads.

HOWEVER,  for everything males labor for,  his family eats..  So in the end there's no real ruler, and NO ONE is actually in control.

We may each occupy visibly divided roles, but all life is interconnected as the fabled leviathan.

You're sentient. If I strap you, hands and feet, to a pedal bike power generator and use that power to post pro-Trump memes does that make you pro-Trump?

Those Dwarven designs are part mysticism and part mechanism but they clearly wield immense strength. An axe head brought Thor back from the brink of death and was powerful enough to open a bifrost portal for 3 people.
