Last month, I was enjoying Happy Hour at Taco Bell and charging my phone. I also like to watch people and eavesdrop on their conversations. There was a dad with several young children although he was on the phone. It was normal at first. They were both military, discussing various things like where we go to war next.*

*Yeah, if you forgot, I live in Florida. We have Central Command just about an hour away so yeah, this is normal.

Then, the dad goes, "But enough about that, it's time for the really important stuff...did you see Infinity War?

Dad goes on to explain how he doesn't feel Thanos is a villain. He was doing everything for the right reasons and only killed a few people because they failed him. Thanos even used non-lethal violence against most of his adversaries.

This thinking has become a lot more common since then, especially on Tumblr but this was the first time I heard someone talking this way and to hear it coming from one of our soldiers...it was chilling. Thankfully, the phone call recipient wasn't as agreeable to his ideas.

Ugh, next May can't come soon enough...
