A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

The 2014 Thanos from Endgame was going to destroy all life in the universe. He learned that his alternate version succeeded but the survivors were able to circumvent him, so resolved to destroy all life and start over from scratch.

So Iron Man did save all life in the universe.

Edit: I now see that there are other comments and replies to this when I go direct to this post on lemmy.world but none of those are federating back. Hopefully .world updates to 0.18.x soon.

Wait... Did you say 2014? As in 9 years ago?

Oh, hold on... Endgame came out in 2019. That's better, I thought I had just woken up from a coma.

I think he meant in-universe 2014. That was the year Nebula and Rhodey traveled to for the power stone where that timeline's Thanos became aware of the time travel plot. That's the Thanos that's the big bad for the rest of the movie.
