You could make this criticism of nearly every character ever created. Someone's actions are informed by who they are. Thanos logic was that life unchecked leads to ruin, that sacrifices had to be made to value what one has. He saw no reason to rebuild or assist because it just put off the issue for a later date.
You can disagree with him. I do, but the idea of stating a character shouldn't be who they are because you don't like them is not a valid criticism to me.

It is criticism which goes against the villian. Thanos drives the whole plot, and he has no reason for doing so. That is what makes him a bad villain.

His reason is he believes life left unchecked will ruin itself. He saw it happen to his own people. He has seen his efforts actually work. Gamora's planet is a paradise according to the movie a generation after the massacre of half the population.
