>written by a faggot
It's time to retvrn
The first act is the closest a movie has ever come to capturing the "vibe" of growing up as a millennial (loser).The other acts, I can give or take. Final act kinda sucks desu.
>>222342389The problem with Fight Club is that it's hypocritical, the main character and Brad Pitt both had the physiques of someone who lifts, yet they looked at lifting with disdain.
>>222342389i really hate the pixies
>>222342434>I look the way you want to look
>>222341728Fight club is the most faggy redditboxd slop in existence and there's absolutely nothing about it that resembles 4chan
>>222341728>films used to think were based but are actually shit
>>222342434they didnt look on lifting with disdain, they looked at the reason that most people do lifting with disdain. they do it to get girls or impress society, both of which are goals seeking external validation. they were all about internal validation. to them, lifting should be done not to make society or girls look at you better, but so that you look at yourself better
>>222342749A truly level-headed person knows the better you look, the better treatment you get. There's no such thing as lifting just for yourself, because if you're not some schizoid freak, you understand the power of better looks, so you lift for others and yourself. Getting girls AND being healthier.
>>222341728Yes, and? Homosexual men are often able to produce a more comprehensive and reflected critique of masculinity, as they are less susceptible (but not immune) to heteronormative propaganda.
>>222342787half the point is that the narrator and durden ARE schizoid freaks anon. even though technically its not schizoidism since thats way different and its more misanthropy but whatever
>>222342791The only thing homosexual men are able to produce is AIDS
>>222342812Imagine not recognizing the homosexual cognitive elite... For being so obsessed with "defending" western culture, you sure are rather unfamiliar with it.
>>222342791>>222342884Fight Club wasn't intended to be a "critique" of masculinity. Chuck Palahniuk has said this time and time again. This is just leftoid homophobia thinking that gays for some reason hate men
>>222342507your take on fight club is the most faggy redditboxd take
>>222341728written by a blue collar guy
>>222341728In the book the narrator meets Tyler at a nude beach and spends the whole chapter admiring his physique It’s a gay liberation tale OP
>>2223425074chan has always been gay-coded (will forever be associated with traps), but the thing is, Fight Club isn't particularly gay, despite being written by such an author. People who look for that are grasping at straws.
>>222343146Is that real? The fuck?
>>222343253it's not
>>222343274‘How I met Tyler was I went to a nude beach. This was the very end of summer, and I was asleep. Tyler was naked and sweating, gritty with sand, his hair wet and stringy, hanging in his face.’
>>222343317not really a "whole chapter"
> Narrator’s father tells him to go to college so he goes to college, tells him to get a job so he gets a job, tells him to marry a woman so he has a mental breakdown> Tyler is his idealised version of himself - a handsome man who fucks a woman > starts underground ‘fight’ clubs which local conservative politicians try to shut down> ‘’skinny guys can take one hell of a pounding’’> Living a secret life - author was in the closet at the time
>>222343332Faggots try to make people dislike things by associating themselves with itTrannies do the same with anime
>>222341728He has a point about women thoughbeit
>>222343423The author is gay. I'm just saying the book isn't some gay erotica
>>222343453The book is about a closeted gay man having a mental breakdown an starting a gay terrorist group
>>222342434Tyler is a manifestation of all the things he wants to be so it makes sense that when he first conjures him he's an Alpha Chad. In fact it makes sense for any man's idealised self.
>>222342787This is still externalized validation and slave mentality at work
>>222343703If there's one group alpha chad would never dunk on, it's the lifters. He knows better than most what it takes to build a body and no one would seriously talk shit about something they put seriously effort into
>>222341728It was her turn!
>>222344520He wasn't a real person, anon. I think you watched half the movie.
>>222342791>heteronormative propaganda.No such thing.
>>222345324Neither are trannies. Nothing the left says is real
>>222342787You do indeed get better treatment the better you look. But if you make that your primary or only reason to look after and improve yourself, then you make yourself a slave to others, and by extension society as a whole. It makes you a whore because you are selling yourself.
>>222343393>>222343634ok you are onto something.
>>222341728Even excluding the book and film’s obvious gay libertarian bent, I cannot take the whining about society seriously>"Oh no, I live in a safe country with high levels of mutual trust and a decent standard of living. it’s so unfair, I’m practically a slave."That is a problem with all the social criticism coming from Gen-X-
>>222345730The reality is that we have tech that should be geared toward a jobless utopia and it's not happening, so it will become clearer as days go by that people are being forced to work when it's not necessary.
