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.
Who is 'we'?
This must be bait or the work of underaged. If you can't tell that Fight Club is a biting takedown of "alpha male" and disconnected Gen X ideologies you're not reading the media you consume coherently enough.

fight club is a good entertaining movie, that touches on interesting ideas. cant you just enjoy the fucking film without being insecure about how other people view you and your tastes

Fight Club is a great movie, I agree with you that it says some important things but if you absorbed anything from it you wouldn't be making a post desperately trying to get a bunch of insecure faggots who are too afraid to like nearly anything that other people like, who you don't know and never will know on Insecure Faggots: the Boardâ„¢ to agree with you.

You do raise a interesting point. NEET club sounds like a novel idea for a work of fiction. The natural response to the cynicism and irony gen x kept feeding us growing up.

It actually was a great film but not because of the things it says at face value. Fight Club was actually mocking the target audience that would agree with the ideology Tyler was spewing i.e edgy teens. It was actually a mocking take-that to those edgy teens by deliberately showing how hypocritical Tyler and Norton were much like >>87126406 says. There's a reason there's a ton of product placement in an "anti-consumerist" film
