I gotta be honest literally the only thing I remember about fight club was they blow up a banks HQ at the end and thats pretty based without context

    When I’m in a “make my intended message go completely over the target audience’s head leading to them idolizing the very thing I try to caution against” competition and my opponent is someone who attempts to critique toxic masculinity in media (a concerning number of men will interpret the characters as being based)

      Funny thing is the book ending is different, the explosives fail and nothing explodes.

    If a man’s favorite movie is fight club, don’t date him he’s probably a sex predator and a republican. But I repeat myself

    Edit: This was a comment about dudebros who think Tyler Durden is the good guy

      Well, Tyler Durden was a dick and the whole fight club thing reeks of toxic masculinity, but he was against capitalism and avoided civilian casualties, I see him a lot more as an anarchist with mommy issues
