Not if 50% of the gut bacteria of the people who got snapped just like fell to the ground, or got stuck to that dusty shit.
Why assume that though? The Infinity Gauntlet isn't a Monkey's Paw, it reads beyond the words and answers the intent of the wielder. So much so, in fact, that it even includes subconscious thoughts and feelings as part of its interpretation. I see often these ideas predicated on the Gauntlet working on Monkey Paw logic despite that being clearly and specifically not how it operates within canon.
I mean, does it erase 50% of all life, or just roughly 50%?
50% of what Thanos considers life since it was powered by his will. Since he seemed to imply that nature (plants and animals) where not part of this it's safe to assume it was sapient life only.
Except animals definitely were - remember endgame, Barton went into the office looked out the window to a small garden and found birds had appeared. Very indicative that the snap included animals
That's just government propaganda to make you think that birds are real and not drones.
Makes you wonder what happened to fetuses. I think it's fair to assume Thanos isn't pro-life
Do we know if Thanos believed in life at conception or birth? Does someone with a donated organ count as one life, two or zero since they wouldn't be alive without the organ. If I only ate one foot, or how about one toe, does that make me a cannibal?
He was worried about limited resources, so I would assume that non-sapient fauna would be included.
