Thanos' plan was unmitigated garbage anyway.
Humanity reached 4B in 1975 and hit 8B in 2022. On that basis, if half of humanity died when Thanos snapped his fingers 50 years later we'd be back to 8B people again.
——— Edited to billions not millions because I wrote it while under the influence of stupidity.
~~Are.. you high?~~ You know that back when I last checked in 2020ish there were 8 billion people, right? Maybe that's what you meant
Edit surely you had to have meant that. The US alone has almost half a billion people. Most countries have well over that number so I'm attributing it to mistype
They might not be a native English speaker. In my language (Norwegian), the word for “billion” is “milliard”. I think that’s also the case in German.
That's obviously what they meant. There was probably some translation error. Just cut people some slack, everyone makes small mistakes from time to time. There's a few (atleast 2) languages where the native word for billion starts with an m and the word for trillion starts with a b.
Yeah that's why I added my edit.
I shouldn't have led with the "are you high" either. Yesterday was a bad day for me. My apologies to the commenter.
Oops. Yup, utter failed to put Bs! Put it down to not having had enough coffee today!
