Marvel Fans Are Taking Issue With Netflix Calling Thanos an "Intergalactic Sociopath" on 'Avengers: Infinity War' Description
Netflix recently caused some waves when it released its description of Marvel's Avengers: Infinity [...]
How Dare You!
Some fans are pretty incensed about it and want Netflix to fix their egregious mistake.
How dare you call Thanos a sociopath, @netflix?
He was trying to save the universe from overpopulation. He recognized the finite amount of resources in the universe. He's seen what happens when those resources run out.
Fix this, you ignorant bastards.#InfinityWar #Netflix pic.twitter.com/8W0VihqiHN

Some just don't think Thanos fits the definition of a sociopath, and feel that Netflix is miscategorizing him.
Really take issue with Netflix categorizing Thanos as a sociopath. He’s clearly not.

The key difference between a psychopath and a sociopath is the knowledge that what you're doing is wrong, so which side does Thanos fall on?
The Netflix description for Infinity War describes Thanos as a sociopath. So does this mean that Thanos knows that what he's doing is wrong, but is doing it anyway because he's stubborn? Does he *truly* believe that wiping half of life from the universe is key to saving it?

Hot Daddy Thanos For The Win
For others the title of Intergalactic Sociopath just can't top the best title, and that would be Hot Daddy Thanos. Gotta say that would be a hard title to surpass.
"intergalactic sociopath" is great but I'm afraid it'll never top "Hot Daddy Thanos" https://t.co/8HfFfnDUyd
