This is unironically great writing and insightful social commentary.

The only reason you think it's not is because you can't remove yourself from social concepts like "edgy" or "pretentious".
Or you can't remove yourself from the social context, ie "people who like fight club are stupid teenagers, I'm not a stupid teenager so therefore I don't like fight club".
Anyone who disagrees with me is an insecure eunuch follower beta male, who can't think for themselves.

I hope you're not calling me reddit, because the people who would hate on that quote are the true redditors, always sucking up to whatever opinions are popular for that dopamine rush of social validation, when you see that upvote roll in.
>>
>>82445013
You're right OP,
Whenever I see someone disliking fight club they always seem to have this "holier than thou" personality, like they're automatically at the top of the social ladder just for saying fight club is entry level or edgy.

What a fucking surprise the tripfag is a complete pleb. I enjoy fight club, but the whole "consumerism is, like, bad man" thing really is the most surface level social commentary ever. It wasn't original, it wasn't deep, it wasn't insightful.
It's a good film but there's a reason it's probably one of the first films people list when you mention fedoracore, people think theyre somehow better than everyone else because they "totally see through it all man, we're just mindlessly consuming and shit", and then what? They go back to consuming just like everyone else but somehow perceive themselves as better because theyre aware that they're consuming?
Either way fuck off back to re-ddit, or remove your trip you egotistical little scrotum

Just admit it's a good quote if you remove the social stigma about being "edgy".
The social commentary is well executed and also nuanced, you don't want to see this though because you're so sucked into the social dissease of memes.
Did you feel big when you typed out that predictable pre-programmed wall of text?
Feel like you're one of the cool kids on the chan, all grown up because you got all the cool kid opinions?

But it's not a good quote, maybe the thousands of iterations that came before it were, but it's tired idea that I'd probably see on my mom's Facebook wall with a minion picture attached to it. Like I said, it's a good film, but to try and say its any deeper than surface level is just wrong.
The last part of your post is just redundant, as expected of a tripfag, sadly. You're free to have your opinions but I personally don't think it's anything worth praise. If it were an original thought then sure, it'd be a fantastic commentary on late stage capitalism and the powers of advertising. But it's not, and it's not.

Thinking for yourself doesn't mean to put your brain in a vat and ignore the outside world completely.
Calling something "edgy" barely qualifies as independant thought.

>>82445013
I liked Fight Club, but it hasn't aged as well as many people would want it too. You have to look at it in context, American Beauty and American Psycho came out the same year, and they all have similar themes of feeling trapped in the establishment. Plus, domestic terrorism was a thing before Columbine introduced the school shooting.

Then 9/11 happened and being trapped in the establishment was the only way to stay safe. It isn't the most relevant movie to today, and shouldn't be viewed as a bible of masculinity as some do.

Fight Club is a great movie. It's a meme on /tv/ to think it's edgy.

If the first letter of a post is a capital, theres a good chance it's been typed from a phone, because it autocorrects it. All my posts, for example, have a capital because I too am a dumb phoneposter.
Also I'm fairly sure you're also killkid, so in future please try to better hide your samefagging
Also fuck off back to re-ddit if you want a username so bad

I always capitalize the first letter when I'm in an actual discussion and not shitposting, it's hardly an indicator of phoneposters.

yes we get it, every time someone defends fight club they bring up the fact that it's not edgy and it's making fun of this edgy behavior etc... which is true (no shit), it's still an overrated movie.

When anyone brings up fight club I always think of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iFD0Q6jt0Y, but desu I think the novel/film have some great social commentary that people just want to cast off as "edgy" cause apparently consumerism is cool now or something.

it also never occurs to them that their views are exactly the same as the big stockholders and their politicians. Yet they genuinely cannot find a contradiction between that and "the jooz are running the show".

Fight Club and (To a lesser extent) The Matrix are a product of 90s corporate culture. If you weren't a white caller worker at the time, you probably won't understand why they resonated with the general population.

Not saying you can't appreciate or relate to them in 2017, but it won't be for the same reasons.

What is the "90s corporate culture"? Do you mean that the 90s had a certain "corporate vibe" to them, like a yuppee thing? Or are you trying to distinguish it from other decades' corporate cultures?
>>
>>82451520
also, why did they resonate with the general population if they were adressed at the white collar populace?

They also act as useful idiots for fighting antifa and actually exposing them as being nothing but a bunch of weak faggots who throw temper tantrums to get their way but when confronted they have no power. They got their shit rocked by memers and basement dwellers. Not to mention exposing antifa making their masks useless. I know this is a pretty small victory but having antifa go unchallenged was annoying.

This is legitimately true. There are like seventeen threads in the catalog about what movies are "reddit." All of 4chan, but particularly /v/ and /tv/, are so obsessed with being "not reddit" that they are mentally incapable of enjoying something that gets even the slightest amount of popularity. It's fucking pathetic, to be honest. Now people will reply to me calling me "reddit" and "cuck" but I don't give a shit because I don't need the approval of some random internet fuccboi. 4chan IS reddit, just with (you)s instead of upvotes.

you do realize that the idea of tyler durden was misplaced self-righteousness and masculinity, and all his "badass" quotes were to show how wrong and out of touch that mindset is
this book was not meant to promote this lifestyle, it was to show how mindless and destructive it is

But the movie is both about the misplaced self-rightousness AND how people have a need to get away from consumerist society.
