Jul 12, 2019 at 10:10 comment added David Spillett @TheLethalCarrot - fair point, though while he may have had specific individuals in mind, he would not have had specific intentions beyond those few individuals.
Jul 10, 2019 at 8:21 comment added TheLethalCarrot "Thanos didn't specify in detail which life to take" - it appears he did have more control than you seem to think. He seems to have excluded himself and Tony and he probably excluded those races he'd already culled.
Jul 9, 2019 at 19:53 comment added Martha @JBChouinard: yes. Basically, the whole "snap-unsnap five years later" conceit does not stand up to close scrutiny. I mean, what about people who come back to find their spouse has remarried? What about people who come back to houses that have sat unoccupied for the last half-decade, and are now not exactly habitable? What about the people who disappeared from critical jobs, like nuclear reactor operators? How did those reactors not fail catastrophically? I could go on...
Jul 9, 2019 at 18:30 comment added JBGreen @Martha which means the snap must have caused widespread ecological collapase and extinctions, and the blip probably didn't fix it. (Imagine a species going from 100% to 50%, then 50% to 0% because of collapse.. then 50% come back. Then they die out. For example: species of bird that have a mate for life might not bounce back).
