SPOILER ALERT: We discuss the ending of Avengers: Infinity War in here.
A subreddit dedicated to the Mad Titan himself, Thanos, is set to make history by recreating the ending to Avengers: Infinity Wars and banning half of its subscribers.
Balancing the universe, one subreddit at a time.
The subreddit r/thanosdidnothingwrong, created by apologists and memesters who believe that Thanos had the right idea by killing off half of all life in the universe, are set to go ahead with the virtual Snappening this Monday, July 9.
They had originally planned to enact the plan on July 4th, but were advised by Reddit HQ to hold off until after Independence Day so that their systems may handle the load.
When the plan was first announced, the subreddit had just under 300,000 subscribers. Now, the number is closer to 370,000. As it stands, it’s set to be the biggest single banning event in Reddit history.
Of course, members are dealing with the subreddit’s sudden fame and influx of new members, as well as their imminent doom, the only way they know how: with memes.
There is also an online petition to get actor Josh Brolin, who portrayed the big purple villain in the film, to do the deed himself at Reddit’s offices.
As a refresher: in the end of Avengers: Infinity War, Thanos successfully wipes half of all life out of existence, including several major Marvel superheroes, after collecting all six Infinity Stones.
To all the members: good luck.
