Avengers: Endgame
Avengers: Endgame…
Society dealing with a 50% loss in population is nothing — NOTHING — compared to the mass starvation and tragedy that would result from a sudden 100% increase in population after society has adapted to the previous 50% population loss.
Today you have two children. You have a job, and you can feed them.
Tomorrow you have another unemployed adult in your household, and two more children to feed.
How does that feel?
And that’s if you are lucky. If you aren’t, you (SUDDENLY — to you it seems five years have gone by in a moment) are a single adult with a child, and you have no job and nowhere to live. And there are THREE BILLION people who, like you, weren’t here yesterday. Good luck finding a job or a place to live.
Avengers: Endgame is the beginning of a tragedy the likes of which the world has never seen.
