So, in the climax of Avengers: Endgame,




the Thanos from 2014 travels forward in time to 2023 and dies in the climactic battle.




This should, logically, prevent the events of Avengers: Infinity War from ever taking place, since he ceased to be present in the time line 4 years prior to this.



However, the movie seems to imply that the events of Infinity War still happened, creating a time travel paradox - a variant of the Grandfather Paradox.



Is there any official statement as to what occurred, or is this just a plot hole in the movie?

    I tried to remove part of the spoilers from the title but I'm not overly happy with the result... If someone's more inspired, feel free to put a new one. And by the way, nick, you can hide spoilers by preceding them with >!, for instance >! he was a ghost all this time
