>Millennials thought having a well paying job was a bad life
>>
This is Gen X, not millennials.

Cold war had ended. 9/11 hadn't happened yet. Race relations were improving at the time. Economy was skyrocketing. Modern man literally had no struggles.

It had nothing to do with his job or money. He was living life on repeat and the most important thing to him was his furniture. It would make anyone want to put a full stop at the end of their story.

>It had nothing to do with his job or money.
his job demoralized him because he was covering up for a corporation being evil due to greed
>>
Another thread full of media illiterate retards.
It wasn't about his job, they show people from all kinds of occupations joining fight club, it was about not being happy, about feeling as if your life was missing something.

yes but hes a leader, his story is special. he brought the faith to everyone else

I think the problem was having that money stolen from us and used against us by people who hate us.

The average millennial was a child when Fight Club was published.

One thing I've learned about people is most of them think of money as a single point (their point) so stuff like salary, house prices, rent, food prices in their heads are very incorrect.

I never had a well paying jerb

>>220863762
His job is fine. His pay is fine.
Everything else around him is shit. His boss. His non existing girlfriend. His boring flights. His boring hotel rooms. His mandatory staff meetings. His coworkers. His office furniture. His insomnia. The doctors who dismiss his insomnia. The dull tv he watches to cure his insomnia.

>>
>>220863762
The Matrix and Fight Club aren't fiction; they're commentaries on the same post-WW2 US-led finance-centered supercultural hegemony that attempted to blend Brave New World with 1984. Fight Club explores descent into nihlistic fantasy as the means of escaping and overcoming the malaise of being a cog in a meat grinder. The Matrix explores faith in Jesus Christ and the belief that there's something greater than the matrix to work towards.
There are others in the same time period doing similar things. Office Space for example had the main character realize you can "just do things" and be free amid a crowd of programmed drones.

That’s Gen X
Millennials are moralistic
Xers are apathetic
Zoomers grew up with cell phones and don’t realize they are all adults now
Gen Alpha is starting to hit adult hood
It’s 10 years a generation not 15 or 20
You can’t be the same generation as your parents because that is the opposite of what generation means hence it can’t be 15 or more.

Usually you do around decade ends because humanity tends to schedule things around those times. The fall of communism colored our childhood super bright colors
Zoomers had 9/11
Xers had corruption, stagflation and a rise of morally grey leaders
>>
>>220863762
that's how it comes off. I think their point was something about how men cant be masculine anymore and that side is repressed in society

>Race relations were improving at the time
lmao, have you forgotten the LA race riots of 94? more than 50 people were killed, literally worse than everything that happened with BLM since 2020.
also oklahoma city. 250 people dead because of a white supremacist, "good race relations" my ass. you dont even know how bad things used to be,

>Economy was skyrocketing
dotcom bubble was worse than the current AI bubble and threw millions of people into financial despair in 2000.

stop talking out of your ass you retarded zoomer, the 90s were nowhere near as golden as you think they were.

Mcveigh was retaliating because the feds murdered american children at ruby ridge and waco. That's right up your lil faggy touchy feely alley isn't it.
>>
So how did you get pussy from attractive women in this era? Did you really have to go to the club every weekend and just hunt there? Tinder makes being a single guy with money so enjoyable.
>>
>>220864596
he didnt give a shit about children, there was a daycare in that fed building he bombed, he murdered children to avenge the death of children. peak rightoid logic.
>>
>>220863850
this. you can have it all but if there is no moral foundation your job is worse than slavery.
>>
>zoomers dropping the based schizo tradpilled monkcel dark intellectual LARP to be bugmen
lol
lmao
>>
>>220864637
being a middle class corpo bugman is better than some tradcel larper who cant pay his bills.

if you can't understand that, you should finally move out of your parents basement and get a dose of reality.
>>
>>220864341
i would like to add that the gnostic viewpoints and content reflect that as well. Theres a string of gnostic films. I see it more of a collective realizing that everything is fake and gay. And I strongly believe Starship Troopers is one of the better contributions. So much so i think starship troopers has more stay power then matrix. The rejection of the machine, only to assist the machine is more poignant then awakenings

>>220864621
uncle ted was both correct and wrong for using violence. No one has written a more precise manifesto or prediction about the impact of technology on mankind, and thats why you will not hear about Tim and the CIA. Or any of the multitude abusrd connections. Save your pining for the federal government, we know Ted was disturbed. Doesnt change a single iota of the impact of the manifesto

Are Gen Z genuinely retarded?

Millenials were like 10-18 years old when this movie came out, not a single Millenials was involved in making that movie.

Sure you buddy.
>>
>>220866600
i mean, your proving him right, the whole racial debate that took place outside the court walls was manufactured, they were looking for an excuse to pit man against fellow man and they found it in something as shallow as skin color
>>
>>220863762
His job was literally signing off on thousands of people getting killed because of corporate greed.
Zoomers think this is good life.

What made shit like Rodney King, Oklahoma City, and I’ll throw in Columbine so shocking and notable was because they were atypical events.

t. I’m in my 40s, and actually have clear memories of the 90s.

Now, you can basically mark your calendar for when race riot- I mean “teen takeover” season starts every year because they’ve gotten so accustomed to there being no repercussions.

I was in school when the verdict came down, and I’ll never forget how the little nigglets cheered and squealed when he was acquitted. They’re trained from day one to see whites as the enemy.

Still do

This was also the same year that The Matrix and Office Space were essentially pissing and moaning about the same thing.

“Aaah, I have a stable income, friends to hang out with, and a beautiful girlfriend, but I want to be paid to do nothing! SAVE ME, COMRADE MARX!!!”

mcveight bombed oklahoma.
ted kaczynsky only managed to kill some wageslave dude at a best buy.

ted was a mentally ill schizo. his entire philosphical mindset was just an extremely verbose "phones are le bad" rant, you cannot refute this.

technology is a fundamental aspect of human civilization, its absolutely required for our survival and makes literally everything easier. its a force multiplier because it also enhances our ability to communicate and plan with eachother.

internet slop or social media radicalization are just growing pains of this new technology, they are meaningless in the grand scheme of things, the benefits of instant worldwide communication by far outweigh the problems with it. its a beneficial tool like any other.

Ted was a luddite who never saw the forest for all the trees. there is no "return to nature" and there never will be. humans are builders, transformers of nature with technology, civilization is an act of constant rebellion against nature
