What if some alien civilization had the technology to strip not just the earth of all gold but also from satellites surrounding the globe in space? Think like Bad Guys 2 movie near the end.
I didn’t write “should” because my first thought goes to tech that we use already that relies on gold being a part of the equipment. It gets worse when I imagine people having gold teeth and then gets even worse when I think about health tech that could also be using gold for some reason (fake hearts?).
Anyway, it’s kind of a nightmare scenario in my mind.


Yes, Thanos snaps are multiplicative.
But I think we can establish that objects get eliminated in their entirety and not on an atomic scale, or else the snap should have killed way more than half of the people considering that about half their cells just committed sudoku.
I assume you mean seppuku, the Japanese ritualistic suicide by disembowelment, and not cells getting frustrated by number puzzles.
It’s a very common meme to call it sudoku.
Committing sudoku is a sort of meme way to refer seppuku.
