He deliberately sends thousands of soldiers loyal to the queen to their deaths in a suicidal attack on the termites, so that he can then wipe out the rest of the colony unopposed, and start his own colony that consists of nothing but his loyal soldiers.

* ''Film/AvengersEndgame'': Thanos was already mad enough to think [[InsaneTrollLogic killing off half the universe so the other half would thrive without killing the whole from overpopulation was a swell idea]], but at least he initially left it at that. However, when he realizes that people are trying to ''undo'' things and there is a remote chance they might succeed at it, he cracks ''just'' a little more. As a result, he decides he's going to just push the ResetButton on everything so no one has anything to mourn, and what life comes after can be steered away from what he thought would be disaster, showered in enough resources to thrive... and he'd make sure they'd be ''thankful'' for it this time.
* ''Film/IndianaJonesAndTheDialOfDestiny'': [[BigBad Voller]] essentially plans to [[MakeWrongWhatOnceWentRight do this to modern history]]. [[spoiler:Upon assembling the [[MacGuffin Antikythera Mechanism]], he and his followers fly a bomber plane through a time portal, intending to travel back to 1939 in order to [[KillAndReplace kill and replace Hitler]], and then lead Nazi Germany to win UsefulNotes/WorldWarII and eventually [[TakeOverTheWorld conquer the world]].]]
